The report also provides an analysis and comparison of past studies performed by XANT and results from other industry-specific studies. Some report highlights include:

  • Sales teams are focusing on SD and AE collaborations and support.
  • The use of tech during the pandemic has changed. Reps are emphasizing social media prospecting, calling, and the use of data services.
  • Sales teams are rediscovering the need for a rapid lead follow-up and emphasizing lead quality—both of which are crucial for the success of remote teams.

“In my 30 plus years in sales, it’s become more and more evident to me how critical an up-to-date sales development strategy is to securing and closing business,” says Chris Harrington, XANT CEO. “That’s why we’ve put together this study. XANT was built to empower sales reps and enable them to succeed. We know that the best way to ensure success moving forward is by relying on data. This kind of analysis, made specifically for sales development teams, is a key driver for that success.”
