#54 - Bringing Win-Loss Analysis into Your Compete Program | CE LIVE
Paul Senatori (Lyft, Salesforce, Hubspot) and Tirrah Switzer (Community Brands, Accusoft) join special guest host Brandon Bedford for another edition of Competitive Enablement LIVE! These three compete pros dive into what it takes to bring win-loss insights into your compete program. From how many interviews you should conduct (and how often), the pros and cons of working with a third-party vendor, how to carve out budget for a win-loss program, and much more, Paul, Tirrah and Brandon touch on a ton of important points and field questions from the audience.
You can catch all past episodes of CE LIVE and plenty of other great video content on Klue's Youtube Channel.
