Build a Sales Tech Stack that Enables Sales Success

It's Bigger than CRM

CRM is where most companies start...and end their sales tech stack. Many don't make it that far, sticking with spreadsheets, whiteboards and other tools they adopted a couple of decades ago. Others opt for a module with their ERP, and some stumble into a solution their IT provider recommends, ending up with limited adoption and expensive constraints on necessary customization.

What a shame!

Sales technology has evolved massively over the last several years, and the real impact extends far beyond contact management and deal tracking.

Today's sales technology stack should:

• create experiences to help prospects and customers buy
• improve sales force effectiveness
• boost the sales team's efficiency
• reinforce sales process and opportunity qualification
• improve sales forecast accuracy and pipeline management
• create collaboration between marketing and sales

But few companies achieve these goals. Instead, they invest money in software that doesn't drive these outcomes. In fact, it often doesn't even get used.

That's a waste!

Build a Sales Tech Stack that Works

Implementing a tech stack that drives the outcomes, is justifiable and affordable, and that the sales team uses requires planning and change management.

The number of options, gadgets and shiny tools on the market often complicates the decision, as do different departmental interests within a company - between finance, IT, sales, marketing and management.

Building the right tech stack only happens proactively, yet decisions are often made passively.

• why buyer experience is important
