“Right now, most sales teams use an average of 10 sales tools to close a deal. That is a lot of tech management and not a lot of selling,” said Mike Baldwin, Director of Product at Cirrus Insight. “We’re excited to share our findings with the sales community to identify how sales teams can focus more on the activities that contribute to driving revenue.”
The study found that top performing sales professionals are using tools such as:
