Workshop: Sales and Marketing Integration - Maximise leads and revenue
Event Info
Description
Over 80% of B2B organisations struggle with a lack of synergy between Sales and Marketing. Marketing has long felt the frustration of immense efforts being expended into marketing campaigns, only to have Sales fail to follow up on marketing generated leads in a timely manner, or fail to provide critical feedback to clearly demonstrate Return on Marketing Investment (RoMI). Likewise, Sales often feel like they are wasting their valuable selling time by following up on poor quality marketing leads.
This misalignment leads to lost revenue opportunities and leaks in the pipeline. Marketing, now more than ever before, is under greater pressure to improve the lead to sales conversion ratios. With only 16% of sales ready leads being closed, there is a huge potential for improvement. Success cannot be achieved alone. If Sales and Marketing can work effectively together, we can genuinely achieve great results!
This one day workshop will address both strategy and tactics, including:
- an overview of all of the business areas where sales and marketing need to be aligned
- characteristics of best in class organisations and the steps to achieve great results
