It took some fighting, but I got the National Sales manager to get his sales team a meeting for this Brainstorming session.
At first, he wanted me to create a questionaire and just have them fill it out. BUT i didn't want that, I want a free form brainstorming session, in which I would run, and have pre-set questions. THey will answer them and discuss.
Althought I finally convinced him that this is important, I've gotten it so I can get 3 people in each session...whereas I wanted it to be everyone at once, which isn't possible due to our team needing to man the phones.
It was tough, but I finally have his support.
NOW, I'm not sure what questions are good to ask! I want some feedback on how their customers perceive us, on our competitors, and such. But, what are some other great relative questions to ask the sales team in order to add to my current research.
I've been using Alina Wheeler's book "Designing Brand Identity" In order to do this rebranding process right, and achieve the best results.
So with that in mind, please offer sample questions, advice on how to effectivly run this session, and any other tips that come to mind! Also, any web resources would be helful as well!
Thanks!
