The next level, Level 4, is when they can hit their target. 👉 Level 4: “I hit my target, and this is what I’ve done.” In this level, the team hits the target with confidence and also shares their process, growth and learning. 👉 Level 5: “I hit my target, and I will teach you how to hit yours too.” At the highest stage, the sales professional is willing to mentor and guide others, reflecting true leadership and collaboration.
