What a Sales Channel Needs to Succeed

As unique as the products and services of all the companies in the world, so are their sales teams, business models, marketing and sales support, etc. The list goes on and on as to what each company's sales organization needs to be successful. They are, however, a number of fundamental needs for every sales organization, the need to be able to market and sell their products and services.

What is needed to help them do that is where all the differences are. Sometimes it's just a simple answer via email or phone, other times a demo, maybe a brochure or a white paper, some example case studies, a few reference accounts, a free trial, a discount, some training videos...the list is never ending.

Why They Think They Didn't Succeed

As long as the list of needs, so is the list of excuses why they didn't close a deal, we didn't have any reference accounts, or the right piece of collateral, or a good demo...again a very long list.

This is where a sales portal excels. It provides the platform to house and serve up everything your company puts together to support your sales organization and makes it easy to find in seconds, so they have the best shot at becoming column A.
