One of the year’s biggest stories in Enterprise Tech is the remaking of HP. The company is in the process of splitting into two huge public companies, with traditional hardware such as printers and laptops on one side of the house, and the other side, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise which will be helmed by Meg Whitman, focusing on cloud computing […]

A marketer’s job should not end where a salesperson’s job begins. One of the biggest mistakes that B2B marketers make is assuming that their job should end with lead generation. But All B2B marketers should be full-cycle marketers, which is to say they should stay engaged with sales and help move leads through each stage of […]

According to recent data from the Bridge Group, 24% of sales development reps (SDRs) report directly to Marketing. These numbers are similar to what we’ve been seeing with our own customer base, indicating not only more responsibility for customer acquisition from marketing leaders, but also increasing alignment between Sales and Marketing. Simply put, closing deals is no longer […]

Several years ago, before I went into sales myself, a friend of mine was working at one of the major musical instrument retail stores. I vividly remember him telling me something that reshaped the way I thought about sales, that the people who worked in the accessories department (selling strings, distortion pedals, tuners, etc.) made a […]

While of course the holy grail for gauging lead quality will always be ROI, Revenue.io’s call rating feature enables sales reps to quickly signal marketers when campaigns are or aren’t driving great calls. This real-time visibility can inspire marketers to work […]

I like to think of Salesforce Dashboards as the reward for all the work marketing and sales teams put into Salesforce. Using dashboards, it’s possible to have a single view of all – or nearly all – the metrics you’ll need to not only monitor results and efficiency, but also show off your accomplishments at your next […]

I think every salesperson has had the experience of losing a deal to a competitor. It’s never a great feeling, but I try to see each lost deal as an opportunity to learn ways to better solve customers’ pain points. Tracking which competitors you’re losing deals to and why is one of the best ways to […]
