As 2025 approaches, it's time to explore ways to better manage your sales workload.
✨Because new year, new you, new sales. ✨
Between quotas, client calls, and CRM updates, it can feel like juggling 17 plates on a unicycle.
We've previously covered the Pomodoro Technique, with its 25-minute bursts of focus. This week, we're looking into time-blocking—a strategy where you schedule specific blocks of time for focused tasks, helping you stay organized and reduce distractions. 🍅
Whether you stick with Pomodoro, try tim-blocking, or combine both, 2025 is already looking more organised. 💁🏽♀️
THIS WAYYYY to transform sales chaos into zen. 🧘 >>
For us sales professionals, that means:
📞 Carving out chunks for calls (because prospecting waits for no one).
📊 Keeping admin work in its lane (CRMs love order too).
💡 Making time for learning (because hey, A-players never stop improving).
💤 And yes, planning actual breaks. Burnout doesn’t hit quotas—people do.
Time blocking 101: How to get started
1️⃣ Set your weekly game plan: Start every Monday with a quick strategy session. What’s your priority this week? Pipeline growth? Nailing that big demo? Write it down and own it.
2️⃣ Batch your work: Group similar tasks together. Prospecting jams in the morning, admin in the afternoon—simple, focused, and effective.
3️⃣ Schedule non-negotiables: Prospecting time isn’t “maybe if I feel like it” time—it’s sacred. Block it off, protect it like your favourite snack in the office fridge.
4️⃣ Add a dash of flexibility: Sure, you’re the master of your schedule, but sales has a knack for throwing curveballs. Leave space for the unexpected.
Why does this actually work?
📅 Because when you control your calendar, you control your results. No more aimless wandering between tasks or letting meetings eat your prime selling hours.
🚀 Sales pros who block their time aren’t just productive—they’re unstoppable...
Pro trumpet tips for block bosses
💪 Guard your calendar: Treat your blocks like VIP events. No gatecrashers allowed—except for your boss. Maybe...
🎨 Color code: A rainbow calendar isn’t just pretty; it’s powerful. Prospecting = green. Calls = blue. Admin = grey (because let’s be real, admin isn’t exactly fun).
🎯 Review & reflect: Friday isn’t just for happy hour—it’s for looking back at your week. What worked? What didn’t? Tweak it.
Why you’ll boss 2025 with this
Only you can turn that intel into closed deals. Master your time, and you’ll master your results.
So here’s your challenge: Try time-blocking for a week. Make it yours. And don’t just plan your week—own it.
One last thing...
We know you’ve got deals to close and a quota to crush. But remember, the best sales pros don’t just work harder—they work smarter.
Now go forth, block those hours.
Until next week folks
