For this reason, it’s more important than ever to align marketing and sales. We cannot afford to miss a late stage opportunity, so it is critical to enable sales with upstream prospect intelligence and the tools to make the prospect experience seamless as they get involved to support the buying decision.

The Growing Need for Sales Enablement
Sales enablement allows teams to achieve sales targets in a scalable, predictable and repeatable fashion. It’s designed to democratize the best practices, so you’re not dependent on a handful of superheroes to hit your business growth goals.
A big part of sales enablement involves equipping sales people with information and assets they can use in sales cycles. This information might take the form of content, training, best practices, research, real time prospect or account intelligence and automation tools.
