1. Making training simple and practical – Instead of overwhelming them with theory, we can offer hands-on sessions that show exactly how the new system will help in their daily work. 2. Focusing on the positives – People resist change when they don’t see the benefits. We should highlight how this CRM will save them time, reduce manual work, and make client interactions easier. 3. Keeping communication open – Let’s ask for their feedback, address any concerns, and make sure they feel heard throughout the process.

Start with the why! Understand why and where the apprehension is coming from. Evaluate objectively if it is valid and address the concerns appropriately. Fundamentally the solution must serve the customers and the business and sales model comes after. With a solution that is adding incredible value to the customers structured with the right sales model, it is relatively easy to educate and train the sales team to sell the solution. In addition offer a strong customer support to help resolve any adoption blockers aiding the sales team to sell with confidence and conviction.

💡New CRM? First the why, then the how. The truth is: Nobody loves change - especially when it upends established processes. But when I'm trying to sell teams on a new cloud CRM, I don't start with the features, I start with the why. I show that modern CRMs are more than just customer databases: they automate routine tasks, save time, use AI for better sales opportunities, and enable flexible working. Email and calendar integration eliminates duplication, while dashboards provide clear insights. The key? A champion on the team to inspire others. Hands-on training, tangible benefits and active feedback ensure that the system is not only accepted - but actually used.

The first step is to identify the reasons for resistance to change. It is important to understand that this resistance can be beyond a natural human reluctance to change, legitimating the benefits of the current model and the team's accumulated expertise acquired in real scenarios. After recognizing these reasons, I will hold discussions with the team about the benefits that the new technology can provide. Additionally, I will create opportunities in their schedules for hands-on training to support this transition. We will also organize brainstorming sessions to address the transition process, allowing team members to voice their concerns and collaboratively explore how the new technology fits their needs.
