is no sweat. But scaling that up by a factor of 10 or 20 – or more – is downright impossible. In fact, 47% of all sales managers spend less
than 30 minutes per week coaching their reps, according to CSO Insights.
Meanwhile, salespeople who miss quota
say they aren’t getting enough training, they lack formal coaching support, and they need more training on how to communicate value to customers.
Clearly, salespeople who aren’t coached or trained properly find it more difficult to attain quota. With Conversation Intelligence, you have the tool you need to help every single rep be productive every single day.
