Amateurs Talk Strategy...Professionals Talk Logistics
The complexity and demands for executing a strong customer acquisition and success program continue to multiply. The growing sophistication, demands, and expectations from buyers have combined with stronger competition and more complex marketing, sales, and service environments to manifest bigger challenges than ever before. The reality is that the modern growth focused organization hasn't responded well. Research from a variety of sources highlight that nearly 50% of salespeople miss quota, salespeople spend just over 1/3rd of their time actually selling and acquisition costs are growing at a faster rate than customer or revenue growth rates are.
Companies have been very successful over the last decade with their investment in demand and lead generation technologies and strategies. The problem is that while they've focused on building the market-facing aspects of their processes, they've missed the core operations, or "plumbing" that is required to both manage the associated complexity and unlock the latent potential of their investments.
Sales operations (as well as marketing operations or revenue operations) is the set of activities and processes that take place within your customer acquisition and customer success organization that enables people to do their jobs more effectively and deliver results with greater velocity and predictability.
