Gamification avoids many of the pitfalls of traditional, in-person sales training. Save your resources and get better results by using gamification to solve these common sales training problems.
Time Inefficiencies
Motivated and self driven individuals, salespeople feel restrained by needlessly lengthy training events and conference calls. When asked, most salespeople reported feeling that the time spent at these events takes away from selling.
Expensive In-Person Events
The costs associated with in-person training events makes staging such gatherings impractical and prohibitively expensive (venue space rental, various accomodations, etcetera).
Low Retention Rates
Even after considerable planning, coordination, and execution, far too many training courses simply go in one ear vand out the other. Archiac teaching techniques and unengaging presentations fail to achieve long-term information retention.
Short Attention Spans
The advent of the internet has tremendously accelerated the way we all conduct business, but our attention spans aren't what they used to be. Accustomed to jumping from one topic or task to another in rapid succession, being forced to endure long training sessions causes our minds to wander and lose focus.
