What is Sales Enablement The field of sales enablement is predicated on providing salespeople with what they need to engage their target buyers. As such, it’s important to provide sales with the resources the buyer wants. What sales enablement provides to salespeople is a critical part of defining your program. What you provide usually takes the form of information. We group this information into two categories: • Content that sales will provide to the buyer • Best practices, research and tools that sales will consume internally
Why is sales enablement important? • Sales enablement plays a key role in scaling the sales organization beyond a handful of overachievers. It provides all salespeople with the best practices, knowledge, tool and resources required to be successful. One sales enablement best practice is to designate overachievers as leaders/teachers of the program.
