The Enablement Edge The Pulse of Enablement: Hot Topics and Insights from Industry Leaders
What are the best and brightest minds in enablement talking about these days?
In this special episode, we’re taking a pulse on the enablement industry and hearing directly from enablement professionals at Seismic’s annual Shift conference — including leaders from Loopio, Sands Capital, Bank of America, UPS, Experian, Proofpoint, and more.
Along with Seismic’s Heather Cole and Steve Watt, they’ll reflect on the topics they wish more go-to-market leaders were discussing, the innovations they’re most excited about, and all things AI.
Here are the key takeaways from this special edition of Go-to-Market Magic:
- Leverage AI to boost productivity: The prevailing opinion of AI at Shift 2023 was focused on how embracing AI today will help you automate mundane tasks, free up time for customer engagement, streamline workflows, and quickly and easily create both sales and enablement content.
- Lean on AI to improve faster: Productivity isn’t the only thing that AI can help teams improve though. Now, teams don’t have to guess at what’s working, they can know. Now, it’s possible for AI to give the entire go-to-market organization insight into what’s happening during a sales call — and how they can better support reps with training, coaching, and content.
- Maximize LinkedIn for social selling: Some of the most successful social selling programs are being led by enablement teams — and a thoughtful social selling program augments your selling ability rather than limiting you to a short-term transactional perspective.
