In today's episode of the Live Better Sell Better podcast, KD talks about establishing the right mindset toward goals both as a rep and as a sales leader. For one, we have to understand that the quota is set by someone else, hence should not exactly be your goal all the time.
HIGHLIGHT QUOTES
Every individual should set their own goals - KD: "You give someone a quota, the quota is set by somebody else. The target is set by somebody else. But a goal is set by the individual. So often, especially in the sales leadership side, we confuse quota with the goal."
What motivates you more? Professional vs personal goals - KD: "Most people will probably say personal goals. Well, what do we spend 99% of our time talking about? Professional goals. Even then we may not even know the professional goals, we just talk about quotas and targets. So our goal as great leaders is to connect the dots between professional goals and personal goals."
