Outside Sales Reps - What is your (precovid) weekly schedule?

I'd like to really try and see other best practices, my day is usually pretty solid.

I only reply to emails twice a day. As if it's ultra important they would reach out via other means.

Any other things you people do?

I try to keep scheduled meetings to Tuesday and Thursday where I can. This leaves me a heap of time to generate fresh pipe through the week and to get on top of follow up and next steps for my deals. It also affords a heap of prep time for calls and meetings. Also, gives me space in the diary for ad hoc meetings that fall in the diary.

Glad I could help 😊 one other thing..
I colour code my diary by value not by activity type.

e.g if a task is green it’s high value and directly impacts my role. If it’s yellow it is somewhat valuable to my role and in some circumstances I’d be happy to reschedule it to make way for a green activity. If it’s a red activity it’s low value and doesn’t impact my role and these things I try to minimise or cancel where I can.

I tried to be on the road 2-3 days a week and then at the office/home the rest of the time.

Yeah I'm usually gone for 5-7 days due to industry. 10 days away isn't out of the norm. Then 3-4 office days follow.

That's rough. Do you enjoy it ?

Very much so. I get OT for travelling not on work hours.

OT for client meetings/dinners/events where I rep the company etc.

Lead a team, and juggle plates.

Oh that's pretty cool !
Personally, I don't think I could do it though.
