Stop Wasting Time Coaching the Wrong People
Most sales managers know coaching works, but 84% struggle to find the time. The problem isn't your schedule. It's your approach. ASLAN's QuadCoaching™ methodology helps sales managers identify which team members actually want to be developed, saving an average of 1.5 months per year while improving team performance by 30%.
Desire Determines Development
The conventional wisdom in sales coaching is fundamentally flawed. Organizations expect sales managers to coach everyone equally, when the truth is stark:
You can't coach someone who doesn't want to be coached.
Effective coaching requires both parties to be engaged. When you shift the responsibility for growth to where it belongs—with the rep—you unlock the time to invest in those who are genuinely receptive to change.
Why Traditional Sales Coaching Falls Short



Time Deficit
Only 45% of managers spend 30-60 minutes individually coaching reps each weekWasted Effort
Leaders spend equal time with resistant reps and those hungry for growthEmotional Resistance
Logical arguments can't overcome emotional barriers to changeUneven Results
Despite consistent coaching, performance improvements often plateauLeadership Burnout
Managers become frustrated and fall back to measuring rather than developingThe result: declining team morale, stunted growth, and wasted leadership potential, all while your top performers and most promising reps go underdeveloped.

What Our Clients Are Saying
"ASLAN's QuadCoaching™ approach completely transformed how I manage my time. I was spending equal hours with everyone on my team and getting inconsistent results. By focusing on my Strivers and Achievers, we've seen a 34% performance improvement, and surprisingly, some of my most resistant team members have become more engaged simply because I stopped trying to force them to change."

Common Questions About Sales Coaching
What is sales coaching?
Sales coaching is the process through which sales leaders develop their team members' skills, knowledge, and capabilities to enhance performance. Unlike traditional management that focuses on measuring activities, effective coaching emphasizes observation, diagnosis, and targeted development to help reps reach their full potential.
How is ASLAN's QuadCoaching™ different from other coaching methodologies?
Most coaching approaches assume all team members are equally receptive to development, leading to wasted time and frustration. QuadCoaching™ acknowledges the reality that desire determines development. By categorizing team members based on both performance and desire to change, leaders can implement tailored strategies that maximize their coaching investment and drive better results.
How much time can sales managers save with QuadCoaching™?
On average, sales managers reclaim 1.5 months per year by redistributing their coaching time according to the QuadCoaching™ methodology. The biggest gain comes from no longer attempting to force development on those who are resistant to change, while increasing time spent with those who will yield the greatest ROI: Strivers and Achievers.
Isn't it unfair to coach some team members more than others?
This is a common concern, but QuadCoaching™ isn't about playing favorites. It’s about respecting individual choice. Every rep has equal access to coaching, but not everyone chooses to take advantage of it. The decision not to participate in development belongs to the rep, not the leader. High-performing coaches still meet with everyone regularly but adjust their approach based on each person's demonstrated desire to improve.

The result: declining team morale, stunted growth, and wasted leadership potential, all while your top performers and most promising reps go underdeveloped.
