This might be to learn about new products, get teamwide feedback, get company or strategy updates, or just to check in.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast to an external-facing meeting, like a sales call or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/five-traits-of-great-sales-reps\/\">sales pitch<\/a>, this meeting is for internal attendees only and meant to give sales team members the information they need to do their jobs well. Typically, sales leaders (sales manager, director or head of sales, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/is-the-head-of-sales-job-going-extinct-the-rise-of-the-cro\/\">chief revenue officer<\/a>) run the meeting and sales reps will attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-a-meeting-agenda-template\">What is a meeting agenda template?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A meeting agenda template is a simple structure you can reuse to plan and run your sales meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most agendas will outline what will be discussed, who is responsible for each part and what outcomes you expect by the end of the session. Using a template helps your team stay on track from one meeting to the next, makes preparation easier and keeps the meeting\u2019s conversation focused on what matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/agentforce\/\">AI<\/a>, teams can take this further by generating draft agendas, summarising past discussions and creating action items automatically, making follow-through more reliable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-find-sales-meeting-agenda-templates\">How to find sales meeting agenda templates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you source your meeting agenda, it&#8217;s important to understand what you are looking to get from more structured meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-choose-the-format-that-matches-your-meeting-cadence\">Choose the format that matches your meeting cadence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The right agenda template depends on how often your team meets and what each session needs to achieve.

For instance, is it a quick standup to discuss progress on a specific key performance indicator (KPI), or a critical end-of-quarter meeting to see who needs help closing deals?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t call your salespeople together without a clear agenda and a few simple objectives. Pulling salespeople into a meeting takes them away from combing through leads, putting together emails and pitch decks and, ultimately, growing revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve developed your agenda and goals, decide who should speak to each topic. Work with the presenters in advance to answer these questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Who will kick off the meeting?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who will present their screen, if needed?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How will you handle transitions?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Will you save questions for the end or answer them throughout?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is there a key <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/blog\/what-is-a-call-to-action-or-cta-and-how-do-you-make-it-effecti\/\">call to action (CTA)<\/a> you want every meeting attendee to take away?\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Send the agenda to attendees ahead of every meeting. It can be a loose outline, but this will show everyone that you\u2019re focused on making solid use of their time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-find-the-right-frequency-for-your-meetings\">2. <strong>Find the right frequency for your meetings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make every instance of your meeting count, or risk your team joking that they survived another meeting that could have been an email. Indeed, email can be an effective, concise way to communicate with your team when it comes to quick company updates or plan changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing and cadence for sales meetings are important. If you have a daily standup or other recurring meeting, consider pivoting to a less-frequent timeline if you notice you\u2019re covering non-essential items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, don\u2019t feel pressured to meet every time you initially planned to meet. If you cancel a meeting when you didn\u2019t have important updates to share, those bonus minutes given back to the team will be applied to meaningful work. Tell your team why you\u2019re cancelling \u2014 \u201cThere are no important items for discussion today and I\u2019m sure you could all use this time productively\u201d \u2014 and your team will appreciate that you\u2019re not holding meetings just for the sake of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-troubleshoot-tech-in-advance\">3. <strong>Troubleshoot tech in advance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re presenting remotely or in person, work out any technological kinks in advance. Computer updates should be completed, software should be downloaded, and unnecessary programs or chats should be closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t want glitches eating into your time and derailing your meeting, so ask meeting presenters to meet a few minutes early to test the full setup. That pre-work may only take 10 minutes, but it pays off. If it\u2019s just you running the meeting, you can do the same thing on your own: test your equipment and go through the presenting motions just as you would during the real thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-start-and-end-on-time\">4. <strong>Start and end on time<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Respect your team\u2019s time by keeping the meeting on schedule. Sales reps meticulously plan their days so they can squeeze in the maximum number of customer calls and emails, so set the tone and make sure your meeting cadence reliably sticks to its time slot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve noticed that previous meetings have tended to go over time, consider saving questions or comments for designated moments in the meeting or reducing the number of topics each meeting covers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-brief-the-team-on-key-updates\">5. <strong>Brief the team on key updates<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As the leader, it\u2019s your job to update the team on anything you\u2019ve learned that might not have been passed on to them yet, especially if it\u2019s been a while since you last met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brief everyone on any pricing changes, sales forecasting updates, product news, leadership shifts, or other integral information that could affect how they sell. Follow up on any issues or questions from past meetings, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This part of the sales meeting can run the risk of taking up a lot of time. If a topic has the potential to run too long, consider having a special meeting to tackle it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-open-the-floor-for-challenges-and-roadblocks\">6. <strong>Open the floor for challenges and roadblocks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re all together in a sales meeting, it\u2019s often helpful to have everyone share what\u2019s working and what\u2019s not. Touch base on leads and accounts, how key conversations are going, and everyone\u2019s overall status report regarding hitting their quotas and KPIs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of progress, listen for any roadblocks. As a manager, if members of your team are hitting obstacles, you need to be aware of issues so you can help clear the path for success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you know what\u2019s going well and what needs additional focus, you can develop an action plan with individual team members or a larger group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-celebrate-wins\">7. <strong>Celebrate wins<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did a team member close a big deal? Surpass their quota six months in a row? Set aside time in your sales meeting agenda specifically to give them kudos. Most people appreciate being recognised, and it\u2019s good for the entire organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be specific in your praise, too. Saying you appreciate that someone took the time to onboard a client who needs more attention than usual will mean more than a generic \u201cgood job\u201d and is far more instructive for other team members looking to improve their performance. Of course, not everyone likes being publicly singled out, so make sure you\u2019re giving team members credit in the formats they prefer. You can vet this with each rep in one-on-one meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-encourage-collaboration-and-new-ideas\">8. <strong>Encourage collaboration and new ideas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your sales meeting agendas should always include time to exchange thoughts as a group. These meetings aren\u2019t only about what you want to communicate; they\u2019re also a way for team members to learn from each other and build on each other\u2019s best practices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you exchange ideas on:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Better sales and marketing or sales and service alignment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remote selling tips<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New positioning of your products or services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Partnering with other peers or vendors in your industry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your competitors and how they\u2019re selling, marketing or pricing their products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shaping goals for the next quarter or year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Focus on topics that will be relevant to most salespeople in the meeting so they don\u2019t start tuning out or attempting to multitask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-clarify-next-steps-and-accountability\">9. <strong>Clarify next steps and accountability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you work through each item on your sales meeting agenda, clarify any action items and who\u2019s responsible for following up on each. No one should leave the meeting feeling ambiguous about next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Team members can be responsible for following up with their own prospects and customers. However, if there are other department-wide needs raised during the meeting, such as talking to the finance team about a new promotion or discussing a new lead-generation campaign with marketing, you should designate a point person. This way, important items won\u2019t fall through the cracks. Make it clear which updates you want the team to bring to the next meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-motivate-the-team-through-highs-and-lows\">10. <strong>Motivate the team through highs and lows<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sales can be hard. This profession requires patience; salespeople need to handle a lot of rejection, and mistakes will be made from time to time. Sometimes the market slows down, and prospects just aren\u2019t biting. No matter the reason why times are tough, the team as a whole, or individual sales reps, will struggle sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During these times, it\u2019s your opportunity as a leader to address issues head-on and communicate authentically with the team. If you share why you\u2019re still inspired and motivated about the team\u2019s work, others will be motivated, too. Carve out time in your agenda to do that when times get tough.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in easier times, fun and positive ways to motivate your team abound. You can introduce games and contests to celebrate what\u2019s going well, and award unique prizes for different milestones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However you\u2019re going, remember this simple fact: tough times don\u2019t last, but tough sales teams do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more advice and insights on sales leadership from the best in the business, download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/resources\/guides\/21-pro-tips-for-sales-leaders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\">21 Pro Tips for Sales Leaders e-book<\/a> and start transforming the way you sell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-simple-sales-meeting-agenda\">A simple sales meeting agenda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This example agenda outline is a good place to start.

preparation and a clear agenda. When your team knows what to expect and has the right information at hand, discussions stay focused and the time spent together supports stronger performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/sales\/cloud\/\">Agentforce Sales<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/analytics\/crm\/\">CRM Analytics<\/a> can help by surfacing real-time insights and reducing the manual prep behind each meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Explore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/au\/products\/demos\/\">our free demos<\/a> to see how our products can improve your processes with actionable insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs\"><strong>FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-often-should-you-have-sales-meetings\"><strong>How often should you have sales meetings?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most teams run a short weekly meeting and a longer monthly or quarterly review. The right rhythm depends on how fast your pipeline moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-i-make-sales-meetings-not-boring\"><strong>How can I make sales meetings not boring?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep them focused, use a clear agenda and only cover topics that help reps sell. Shorter meetings with real data and open discussion work best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-sales-meetings-help-teams-close-more-deals\"><strong>Do sales meetings help teams close more deals?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, when they\u2019re structured. Good meetings surface any blocks, get priorities in order and give reps the information they need to move deals forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-long-should-a-sales-meeting-be\"><strong>How long should a sales meeting be?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Aim for 30 minutes to one hour for weekly check-ins. Bigger reviews can run longer, but should still be tight and purposeful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Optimise sales meeting agendas with templates.
