Intelligent Growth 2015: The State of B-to-B Sales

Presented by Mark B. Levinson with SiriusDecisions

All b-to-b organizations have a growth target, but how they intend to grow – and should grow – varies. Will it be through new markets? New buyers? New offerings? Making acquisitions? Focusing on productivity? Making a choice – or choices – will have significant strategic and execution-related ramifications for chief sales officers, as well as sales operations and sales enablement leaders. As well, understanding the ever-changing buyer engagement model is required to ensure sales reps are best positioned to align to distinct buying scenarios. This presentation will provide the following benefits:

• Understand the importance of sales marketing alignment as it relates to organizations ability to grow
• Gain insight on how buyers are and want to engage throughout their buying process as it directly relates to sales
• See new data on which of five SiriusDecisions growth pillars b-to-b organizations will be focused on for the upcoming fiscal year
• Receive detail on the biggest challenges that b-to-b sales leaders see with the growth choices their executive leadership has made
• Learn about strategic shifts a sales leader will likely need to make as a result

This program is designed for companies doing B-to-B Sales, who are challenged with the complexities of aligning marketing, sales, and product across their organization to drive better outcomes.
