It comes as no surprise that today’s world is driving a seismic shift in B2B sales. Customers are rapidly adopting digital buying behavior, and sellers are feeling the pressure to reinvent themselves. Organizations must commit to empowering and enabling their sellers if they want to adapt to the new landscape and remain resilient in their markets. Companies that are successfully navigating selling today are doing two key things:
- Working smarter: streamlining and scaling sales activities with powerful digital tools.
- Being more strategic: leveraging sales operation roles to focus sales teams on the next critical steps to win accounts with the most opportunity.
While digital selling and optimized sales operations are important for helping sales teams orient their efforts in the post-pandemic marketplace, they are only as good as the data they rely on. New opportunities and new pockets of growth are missed if your data is stale or inaccurate. Compiling that data manually takes time, and trusted and reliable data can be hard to find.
Equipping sellers with reliable, actionable, and relevant real-time data is essential if sellers are going to embrace relationship selling and make the most of the time they have available with customers. Confidence in the “next best steps” and clear direction are what sellers need to turn an opportunity into a victory.
