Are you a renewal leader or success rep feeling overwhelmed by the administrative burden of tracking renewals, pricing deals, and managing spreadsheets?
You’re not alone.
But to get out of this cycle, you may need to take time to shift gears and reclaim your time, energy, and potential for growth.
You have so much to offer:
- Your ideas
- Your initiative
- Your organization
- Your insight
- Your energy
- You
The trouble is that sometimes we can’t unleash our gifts when we’re stuck in a problem.
And we get it, sometimes the day to day motion of pricing, renewals, assets, quoting and interfacing with OEMs and vendors can run you down and leave you with little left in the tank.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
There is a book that many entrepreneurs have read that tells the story and parable of a lady starting a pie business. She loves pies, but her business starts to consume her. Over time, she learns she has to work on the business, not in the business.
The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don’t Work and What to Do About It
It might be time for you to do the same thing.
Here’s how:
1. Take Time to Get Away: Schedule regular breaks to recharge and rejuvenate. Step away from the daily grind to gain fresh perspective and clarity.
2. Create a Before and After Solution for Your Boss: Clearly articulate the current challenges and, in the process, outline the benefits of implementing improvements. Show how your proposed changes will save time, increase productivity, and drive revenue.
3. Document the Ideal Process: Create a comprehensive document outlining your new process, including steps, timelines, and key contacts. This will streamline workflows and ensure consistency.
4. Quantify the Fix: Provide tangible metrics and ROI calculations to demonstrate the impact of streamlining the renewal process. Showcase how reducing manual work and increasing efficiency will lead to cost savings, revenue growth and more time to sell, upsell, or negotiate with vendors.
By taking time to take a step back, you can get in the right frame of mind to think creatively about the problem.
At this point, you are really starting to take ownership of your role. You’ll not only enhance your own career prospects but also drive meaningful results for your organization.
You can do it – and with a bit of work and effort, you’ll be glad you did.
