(Well obviously this isn\u2019t enough, so read on \ud83d\ude09) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What if someone told you that there\u2019s a thing that you can do as a sales head that would help you drive comparatively more revenue, smoother sales executions and an increase in organic conversion rate? Would you not like to know what that thing is? But first let me tell you what it is not, it\u2019s not magic, nor a hybrid piece of technology or includes changing anything material in your current space. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one thing that can change the course of your business, whose prime focus is an effective amalgamation of marketing and sales, to arm sales representatives with the best of tools that which would affect your entire business is \u00a0\u2014 Sales Enablement Optimization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to me, Sales Enablement Optimization is a strategic, ongoing process to equip the sales team with the not so tangible tools, resources, and skills to increase their efficacy and consequently improve their functioning through an intelligent combination of marketing and sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/leadsrain.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/WHY-SHOULD-YOU-OPTIMIZE-YOUR-SALES-ENABLEMENT0.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4747\" src=\"https:\/\/leadsrain.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/WHY-SHOULD-YOU-OPTIMIZE-YOUR-SALES-ENABLEMENT0.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales Enablement Optimization has no particular definition as such, maybe because of its ethereal quality, much like any other concepts or ideologies. Here I\u2019d like to give a definition that I sense articulates the essence of Sales Enablement Optimization the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A strategic, cross-functional discipline designed to increase sales results and productivity by providing integrated content, training, and coaching services for salespeople and frontline sales managers along the entire customer\u2019s journey, powered by technology. \u2014 CSO Insight, 2016 Sales Enablement Optimization Study.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales enablement can be anything from nitpicks of your marketing blogs, case studies in your sales script to creating email templates and messages for retargeting of the customers based on their behavior and preferences helping in cataloging them according to their need and yours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us see the real practical action now rather than just talk. Recent research by Aberdeen reveals the following mind-boggling stats \u00a0\u2014 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales enablement leads to higher team quota attainment by to 62%<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More revenue growth by 205%<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Higher sales velocity 725%, and <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increase in lead conversion rate by 23% in organizations with structured sales enablement programs versus companies without it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is how effective sales enablement optimization is. And here is the cost of not enabling one\u2019s sales force to its optimum potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales reps spend up to 43 hours every month searching for information. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 Aberdeen,2015<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">30-60% of CRM projects fail. \u2014 C5 Insight, 2015<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">40% say getting a response from a prospect is harder than it was 2-3 years ago. \u00a0\u2014 Mike Kunkle, Sales Enabling Officer, Brainshark<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 in 4 companies says their marketing and sales teams are either \u201crarely aligned\u201d or \u201cmisaligned.\u201d \u00a0\u2014 Mike Kunkle, Sales Enabling Officer, Brainshark<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At LeadsRain before sales optimization, our conversion rates were 42% that which now have increased to 75%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, with sales enablement optimization we now understand the how effectively can content enable the sale, and are actively keeping the integration up to date.
