Sales Enablement Today
Trends and Challenges
A lot of talk about definition….
“Sales enablement is a strategic, ongoing process that
equips all client-facing employees with the ability to
consistently and systematically have a valuable
conversation with the right set of customer stakeholders
at each stage of the customer's problem-solving life
cycle to optimize the return of investment of the selling
system.”
– Forrester Research

• Create a consistent way to launch products, as
well as ramp new and current staff
• Add new indirect and international sales channels
• Scaling systems to support growing business
• Integrate processes across the company
