The ability to predict what customers want and need is known as sales predictability. This can help businesses increase sales, set budgets, and scale growth. However, many agency owners need to identify the correct solutions to their problems.

Seasoned sales professional and scale expert Darby Copenhaver explains that most agency leaders push their sales representatives to generate more leads. In actuality, they need a sales system or a defined sales process. A sales system is a repeatable process that helps sales reps identify, qualify, and close leads. A designated sales process outlines the steps that sales reps should take to move a lead from initial contact to a closed deal. Additionally, this type of sales process aids owners in generating more qualified leads, closing deals, setting budgets, and scaling growth.
