Certification & Readiness: Manage a robust sales certification program. From 'Pitch Perfection' to technical fluency, you ensure our sellers are certified and ready for the field
Content Optimization: Audit and streamline our sales asset repository. Ensure that every whitepaper, deck, and battlecard is mapped to the buyer’s journey and easily discoverable
Data-Driven Insights: Define and track KPIs (Time to Productivity, Ramp Time, Win Rate vs. Competitors) to prove the ROI of enablement initiatives
