Brainshark Announces Partnerships with Leading Sales Consultancies Think! Inc. and 5600blue

With Brainshark’s Sales Readiness Technology, and Think! and 5600blue’s Content and Intellectual Property, Companies Can Improve Sales and Negotiation Outcomes, and Close More Deals

Brainshark, Inc., delivering SaaS-based sales enablement and readiness solutions, announced strategic partnerships with Think! Inc. and 5600blue – sister companies focused on sales and negotiation enablement for business-to-business (B2B) organizations. With Brainshark’s technology, and Think! and 5600blue’s insights-based content services and skills methodology, organizations can prepare their sales teams with expert knowledge, just-in-time refreshers, and an award-winning, on-demand learning and practice environment – empowering reps to close more and bigger deals.

As salespeople seek to engage today’s modern, empowered buyers, it can be a challenge to add value. Recent research from CSO Insights finds that buyers increasingly execute their own due diligence – ranking salespeople next-to-last (9th out of 10) among the resources they consult when solving business problems. Yet opportunities for earlier engagement exist, with 9 out of 10 buyers (90%) open to engaging with salespeople earlier in the buying process (also per CSO Insights). As a result, there’s a pressing need for agile, insightful training and highly relevant sales content that adds value to the buyer journey – making reps more of an indispensable resource.
