10 Best Practices of Successful Sales TMs: #3 – Manage Your Time

Mar 26, 2025

Hey !!

Here’s a hard truth: Most people waste 40%+ of their workday on low-value tasks.

They confuse “being busy” with “being productive.”

🔥 Best Practice #3: Manage Your Time

If you don’t control your time, your time will control you.

💡 Top performers time block their schedules.
💡 They put revenue-generating activities FIRST.
💡 They eliminate distractions (email isn’t urgent!).

Here’s your challenge this week:

✅ Block out 2 hours a day for each of your sales TMs for revenue-generating activities ONLY.
✅ Track their time for one day—see where the waste is.

Help them protect their time like it’s their paycheck—because it is.

Next week, we’re diving into Best Practice #4: Activity = Results. Because more quality conversations = more closed deals.

Talk with you then,
