At Transform Connect 2022, we brought over a thousand sales enablement and marketing professionals together. Followed up by the Transform Connect Afterparty, where we kept the knowledge flowing.
Catch up on the conversations and advice shared during Transform.
What sales enablement challenges do you face?
We wanted both events to respond to real challenges our customers face today, like why “up to 90% of marketing content goes unused by sales” (Source: American Marketing Association). Is that true, and how can sales enablement conquer this problem?
To answer this question and others, take a look at four of our most insightful and popular sessions from Transform.
What are the top three Sales team headaches today?
Donald C. Kelly, Founder of The Sales Evangelist, dug into the familiar challenges that Sales and Marketing teams face in today’s macroeconomic climate. He offered highly actionable and proven tips for how to solve them. Donald gave attendees insights on how to communicate with buyers, the value of data and insights, and how sellers can guide buyers through their journey.
“Buyers, like you and me, are getting too bombarded with information. So we just drown it out. We don’t pay attention to those emails anymore. And oftentimes, we know the sequences that their sales reps are sending your teams.”
Discover Donald’s top tips to improve your sales effectiveness.
