Showpad: Sales Content, Training, Buyer Engagement and Measurement
As your business rolls out sales teams, you’ll find that the search for effective content becomes an overnight necessity. Business development teams search for white papers, case studies, package documentation, product and service overviews… and they want them customized by industry, client maturity, and client size.
What is Sales Enablement?
Sales Enablement is the strategic process of equipping sales organizations with the right tools, content, and information to sell successfully. It empowers Sales reps to deliver engaging experiences for modern buyers who expect personalization, automation, and overall innovation.

Remote Sales Enablement
With the recent COVID-19 lockdowns, sales teams lost the ability to personally connect with their prospects on location or via conferences. Remote selling has grown in interest and enablement of remote selling has been a challenge. In fact, over half of all organizations stated that remote selling was a challenge.
The coronavirus is absolutely terrible for the world, but it’s actually good for sales enablement… The sales people you do have are being asked to take on more territory — do more with less. Sales engagement tools drive efficiencies and effectiveness.
