Engage with Magic Maps

Alright, so Magic Maps is a game-changer when kicking off your sales training on Google Meet! It’s more than just checking where your banking folks are logging in from. You could ask them something fun to break the ice like, “Where would you make your dream sales pitch across the globe?” Or get them to think about aspirations with questions like “Which city has the best banking services you’d love to be a part of?”, or even “Where around the world would you love to conduct a seminar on sales?” This not only puts everyone on the map in real time but also sparks curiosity and friendly banter right from the get-go. Plus, this little trick makes sure everyone’s leaning in, ready to interact right away.

Gather Thoughts with Opinion Polls

Your audience has a myriad of thoughts and experiences, so why not capture them in real time? Opinion Polls on Google Meet let you ask broad, open-ended questions like, “What’s one barrier you’ve faced with selling banking services?” or “Share an unexpected win from a recent client meeting.” The poll will gather the various inputs, allowing everyone to learn from shared experiences, all while keeping engagement high. This feature opens up the floor for creative and varied input, helping you to further tailor the training content to better suit the attendees' needs.
