Sales Enablement
Is your business struggling to sell and work productively?
Major changes to the IT buyer landscape present new challenges for salespeople. Today’s IT buyers mostly self-educate and only make contact with sales later in their journey. The line-of-business buyer now plays a much bigger role in the buying process.
The Sales Enablement Practice helps IDC clients engage prospects in compelling sales conversations by leveraging IDC intelligence and vertical market insights. To create a compelling buyer experience, the Interpersonal Dialog must be elevated and in sync with the Digital Dialog.
Why is Sales Enablement important?
Ensure sales conversations are highly relevant to your buyers’ rapidly changing needs.
Structure customer road maps based on triggers that tie future purchases to changes in the economic environment. This offers flexibility in the face of uncertainty.
Understand the business value your solutions deliver so sellers can speak to cost-optimization objectives that preoccupy today’s buyers.
Educate salespeople so they are well prepared on your organization’s messaging, especially how to help customers develop business resiliency.
