SalesTech Quote-of-the-Week!
More data creates more noise. We are at a point where we are building dashboards over dashboards to make sense of all the insights coming our way. Not much of that is really able to solve the thorniest of problems in sales, which are: rep attainment (20% of reps drive 80% of the revenue) and ramp time (6+ month average ramp time hurts bottom lines everywhere). So if the sales organizations can focus on just those two metrics, they can make a big difference. To do that, lagging indicators won’t cut it anymore. You have to focus on leading indicators – Haggai Levi, CEO at SetSail
