But when you focus on the right target client, you don\u2019t need to convince them. You just need to guide them toward the next steps. (More on this in a bit.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get clear on your target buyer personas, review past qualified leads and loyal clients you\u2019ve pulled into your sales funnel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>What characteristics do they have in common? How did they find you? What do they appreciate most about your services? What problems do they have, and why do they trust you to solve them? Plain and simple \u2014 why did they pick YOU?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the answers to these questions to reframe your ideal customer profile (ICP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, refine your sales cycle process to pitch to only these potential leads and clients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, if you\u2019re an SEO strategist who\u2019s found countless clients by pitching to marketing teams \u2014 but has heard crickets when pitching to PR firms \u2014 focus on marketing teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a graphic designer, who\u2019s never had trouble landing gigs for beverage label design but struggles to land event design leads, focus on your beverage company\u2019s buyer persona.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"2-time-track-your-sales-activities\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Time_track_your_sales_activities\"><\/span>2.

With an employee <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webwork-tracker.com\/features\/time-tracking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">time tracking app<\/a>, you can identify improvement areas, allocate resources more effectively, and help your sales team focus their time on high-value activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXcE-LMGDYf4nB7cHuZOTo7T9Or34Pv4ZP2vX-61tW-8L37AZq_hLmhLv9AFTX3udOouAZsVUSuWburCfOZNCWPMq4itcwKlyVXApCKWQuzZ9u4LHKWNeossyXfl-LUd-Oq-JKeidDvuBGi8iLcYsrJKkeKW?key=r38vXGF_8ALRFaEb9eeH9A\" alt=\"Employee time tracking app screenshot.\" width=\"547\" height=\"456\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you might learn that when your reps spend time cold calling and emailing, they get impressive results. However, when they focus on social media sales strategies, it takes much longer to hit their sales goals.
