"After upgrading to the best available video conference software and onboarding to an efficient internal communication software for your team, it's time to manage your sponsors and give them a positive experience. You never know the opportunities you might have with them in the future.

Sponsors play a crucial part in ensuring your events are successful, so you need to foster long lasting relationships with them. That way, they'll return year after year to make your summits and conferences keep working..."

"Having worked across multiple industries from Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) to eCommerce and gotten sucked into the hype of new marketing channels from social media to influencers to content marketing, I can understand how marketers get tripped up on how to think about building a marketing plan in today's industry environment and media landscape. New terminology is constantly introduced even when concepts aren't new but applied to new tools and channels. And, experts in specific fields champion certain tactics as if all marketers across all industries should jump in full force..."

"Mastering how to generate leads for technology projects can be even more difficult because the dense competition in technology industries gives potential customers more than enough options to overlook your business entirely.

The solution? You'll need to distinguish yourself from the competition and start attracting qualified leads to your business in order to make sales.

Mastering multiple online marketing strategies and deploying them in tandem is the key to increasing your presence and capturing serious clientele. Using a clever combination of techniques, you can lead prospects to your website, boost their interest in your products or services, and then convert them into paying clients through careful engagement..."

"In the survey of 395 sales and marketing leaders - all from technology, financial services and professional services firms across the UK, Germany, France and Ireland - 90% say they are misaligned across strategy, process, content and culture.

A huge majority (97%) of those leaders face challenges with alignment on content and messaging. Problems cited include marketing teams creating content without any input from sales, content being too product-led, and failing to focus on the problem the customer is trying to solve..."

"Now that we're in the fourth quarter of 2020, there are still many unknowns which hang like threatening storm clouds over growth plans for the coming year. A recent article in Forbes outlined three scenarios for the coming year that marketers and business leaders should consider: the 'good', the 'bad' and the 'ugly'.

The good case forecasts a 'v-shaped' recovery, perhaps with the release of a COVID-19 vaccine in early 2021 and a stabilization of the political environment following the US election. The bad case portends long-term pandemic-induced recession with profound psychological changes that will shape our behavior as consumers for years to come. In the worst-case scenario all the breaks we assume in the good and bad cases break bad, and what could have been a merely bad year becomes ugly.

Fortunately, we know a few transformational marketing tips that should help you grow your business under any of these scenarios for the foreseeable future:..."

"Clearly defined pipeline stages help to speed up the sales process by equipping sales teams with everything they need to successfully carry out a deal. No two sales processes are alike, so it is important for you to know how to develop pipeline stages for your business.

"I took up golf this summer. Those who play can probably relate when I say that I love the game - and I hate the game. I love when I connect with the ball and feel like a pro. I hate when I slice and lose my golf ball in the trees. Good form is what I want. So, before I picked up any bad habits, I decided I needed a coach.

First we focused on fundamentals: how to hold my club to start. It wasn't until the third week that my coach video-recorded my swings and adjusted my grip, arms, and overall swing. We reviewed the videos. He drew lines and made notations. I practiced. I'm far from pro status, but at least I felt ready to get on a course..."

"I'm not sure I'll present a methodology for the future, but I will suggest design principles for a Next Gen Sales Methodology.

The next gen methodology should be focus on helping the customer navigate their buying process more effectively. Most current sales methodologies focus on what we do to the customer. The new methodology must focus on how we work with the customer.

Actually, customers already solved this issue, the leverage project management principles. So rather than inventing something new and layering sales jargon, why don't we just build the sale methodology on project management principles. We would work with the customers to develop a project plan, with milestones to assess progress, work flows and tasks needed to reach the milestones, and metrics that enable us to measure progress and identify challenges..."

"In a world of uncertainty, market leaders are sure which customer touchpoints require prioritization. As a result of a highly volatile year, has your customer journey map been altered? As a sales operations leader, you must be confident in your company's ability to guide customers through a bespoke experience that is centralized across your organization.

A customer journey map that highlights events that have different levels of prioritization will allow your firm to address customer pain points head-on and reduce friction within the process. We will explain why it is important to address these points on your customer journey map and how it allows for deeper collaboration among resources across verticals..."

"The top factor of success is strong leadership support and buy-in, which was indicated by 39% of leaders (see Figure 1). Sales enablement is a top-down, mission-critical initiative. As a strategic function, sales enablement requires this buy-in and support for resources and equally important, empowerment from the top.

Documenting the sales design in a playbook and the sales process are also critical to the success of a sales program. This is another example of a bigger, more strategic point of view. Instead of just a singular training program, organizations ascribe their success to deliverables that cover the entire sales process, including what sales reps should do at every step. Enablement teams are not responsible for developing expertise; they are responsible for expertly executing the delivery and retention of playbook expertise, knowledge, and skills. Because of their importance, a third of respondents rank playbooks and processes as key to their success..."

"I was the new Vice President of International Sales & Managing Director for a work management software company called Wrike. And I had been tasked to build out our new EMEA team (and later, I did the same in Melbourne, Australia; Tokyo, Japan; and Kyiv, Ukraine).

This opportunity gave me a huge amount of experience and training that has impacted how I think about building teams and how I think about coaching and communicating with people.

If you're thinking about launching a team outside of the US or outside of your HQ country, I hope you can learn from my failures and successes here, and if not, hopefully, you can enjoy a good laugh or two on me!

"My immediate reaction was, 'Well, yes, but...''

I think too many managers don't even look this deeply, but have similar views, the solution to all anemic pipelines is more prospecting. They don't even look at refining the initial engagement approach in prospecting, they just demand more.

But I'm uncomfortable with this, I wish diagnosing sales performance issues could be that easy. But everything we do in sales is interconnected-so it's difficult to isolate things to-we just need to prospect more effectively..."

"Social media use has increased exponentially since the dawn of the 21st century. Billions of people already depend on these platforms for information and news. Based on the 2019 data from Emarketer, 90.4% of Millennials, 48.2% of Baby Boomers, and 77.5% of Generation X were active on social media.
