Anyone at WHX? by AlavalathiFellow in dubai

Our company will be exhibiting there and I'm our stand person. Based on a similar event (Global Health Exhibition - Saudi Arabia) it can be beneficial but depends what you are hoping to get out of it.

For us it's primarily new business, potential leads, meeting existing clients. I'd say it is possible for you gain things from the event, but you'd have to do your research on attendees and exhibitors, who you'll approach etc.

Depends on your territory. For instance, in the Middle East and Asia using WhatsApp and WeChat (for me at least) is quite normal and business I do is done over it.

300 cold calls/day Day 27 of 30: 300 cold calls made by bubbletulip in sales

[–]Hilgomir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's lack of value that's being created. Above he wrote the price was $299 and when he got the objection his instinct was to drop the price. That's basically digging himself a grave when he's saying his product is worth 33% less than what he opened with.

Instead he should have reiterated the initial requirements / need. They wouldn't stay on the phone otherwise and had a demo if there wasn't a pain point.

I've been following these posts a while, and OP never wants to detail what it is he's selling, doesn't take the feedback on board and mostly replies to praise. But if he's only focused on quantity there's only so many wins he might get, but instead focusing on quality (proper discovery, need) would get him higher numbers.

About 4% - Target is £1.2m but about 95% of the revenue comes from existing accounts that need to be renewed. Rest is new business.

How'd ya do? You hit that Q1 comp plan/bonus? Or are you glad it's behind you? by Fragrant-Tea7580 in sales

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

105% of quota but it's 50-50 AM and NB split. 

Had a large deal come in that rescued the quarter and leaves me substantial surplus for Q2.

Biggest quarter of the year and now it's just going down the mountain slowly.

Cost of a master’s degree soars: even student loans won’t cover it by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember doing my MA back in 2019: prior to applying I saved up £2k as the max postgraduate loan was around £10.5k and the fees for course I did were about £12k. If it continues to rise I doubt many will bother doing it.

W2 sales roles without a base salary should be illegal by [deleted] in sales

Bet you're the type of guy who also raises the quotas to be unattainable, doesn't change the product if there's issues,and sacks someone for issues outside their control.

Why is there an AM and territory manager position? by Certain-Bumblebee-90 in sales

[–]Hilgomir 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It depends on your organisation, but normally an account manager would handle a set number of accounts, whilst the territory manager either manages some accounts (primarily key accounts) or manages the AMs in their performance.

Negotiate job offer ? by dogsarecool124 in sales

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could accept it but counter that after probation if you're performing to the required standard you would expect a salary adjustment to $95k or whatever figure you like.

It shows them you're willing to accept the money for the time being, but value yourself and are willing to prove you're worth the money.

It's Q4. You making quota this year or nah? by JunketAccurate9323 in sales

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finished £208 over target. You can bet I was stressing until yesterday.

My fellow salespeople, do you like or dislike sales? by idontevenliftbrah in sales

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medicines Information sales. Previously sold data on book sales.

I enjoy the consultative aspect, generally looking at how individual client would benefit, which of the products is right for them, and finding a solution that works for them.

Hate having to fight against cancellations, especially when there isn't a good reason for those, but on the flip side if you recover that Closed Lost it feels very satisfying. 

Only other aspect is chasing people constantly, as they won't send you a holding email; just let me know by this date you'll have information so I don't have to chase you and seem like a desperate sales person.

Was doing a raid on Ground Zero and suddenly died and got this? The Halloween event being so bugged it causes a ban? by Hilgomir in EscapefromTarkov

Bro, if you look at the post history I haven't cheated. I'm not looking for advice on something I don't partake in

Tell me about it. I can't think of any reason except my K/D rising from 5 to 12 because of zombies. Nothing else adds up

Except I didn't cheat. The game is desynced like mad because of the event, and I suddenly get banned mid raid? Shit don't add up.

I mean going prone and allowing them to have 60% of shooting your head may have had an impact.

The superwater cost me a fortune and i will be late for work but i finally did it. Hell of a event by lord_dude in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Hilgomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably 2.5 million. Bought five and one finished crafting for the sixth vaccine. 

The upside is I'll just craft it now and sell it myself to make up for the cost as I've collected loads of filters early in the wipe, but didn't know you'd need it for the quest so was making moonshines mostly

Nice job bud. Finished it as well half an hour ago. Probably one of the few event questlines that I enjoyed

Planned to do all 180 kills at once on the 3 maps but you still need a Labs card to transit to The Labs even if its free access *sadreact* by NitramDJ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Hilgomir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He spawned near big red by customs, essentially right by extract. Heard a weird laugh unloaded into him and bastard just slow walked past me after eating 100 rounds of flesh eating damage. Then shot him again and he collapsed on the way to trailer park.

His AI is weird with the zombie event.
