How to create a sales playbook?

There are several ways to create a sales playbook. The simplest way to create one is to start with the structure. You can copy the structure we suggested above into the sales playbook template to inspire you to create something for your own company.

After choosing the main themes and topics, you will need to define who should collect what information. As in any process that is undergoing professionalization, it is natural not to have all the information.

With that, we now have a guide on how we will organize your sales manual. This step is essential before we start getting our hands dirty.

The topics will serve as a solid basis for checking the progress of the project. This structure will allow your company to organize itself and have a clear vision of what is to come.

02.

Gather information and set goals

With the topics raised and mapped in hand, it's time to look inside and see what the company already has and what it doesn't have yet. Let's define what needs to be built, what needs to be revised and check what already exists and will not be modified.

In addition to surveying what already exists, it is important to define what the company wants. What is the purpose of the playbook? Define the process? Increase the sales? Delegate better? Organize the process?

This step is important to avoid rework and gain productivity.

03.

Create an action plan

Now that we know where you are in relation to what you would like to have, it's time to create an action plan: simple and objective. We will map all the actions that need to be carried out by your team, ours and everyone else so that you can professionalize your sales.

More important than having everything documented, is reviewing the material from time to time, because the commercial is alive and always needs changes from time to time.
