Sales and Marketing alignment continues to be a major concern for top management, especially when company survival in a tough economic climate depends on the efficiency and effectiveness of its revenue engine.
Many companies have tried to align Sales and Marketing using re-organization, new hires, training, team-building exercises, and technology. Typically, the results are less than spectacular and are short-lived.
Besondy and Eppel present an interactive, inspiring, and thought-provoking talk every executive responsible for top-line results can relate to and learn from:
- Why should companies be concerned with nonalignment in Sales and Marketing?
- Calculating the Alignment Index™ and the cost of mis-alignment
- What is true alignment?
- What results can be expected from effective alignment?
- Why do most attempts to achieve alignment fall short?
- A sure-fire way to align Marketing and Sales processes almost overnight
- Why it’s not enough just to align the processes?
- Transforming trust, communication, accountability, and commitment
- What can be learned from companies that have created revenue breakthroughs?
