The Most Important Metric You’re Not Tracking.

By Chris Tandridge

Is Sales Proficiency the Missing Link for Sales Enablement Success?

We already know that results are all about the numbers. We regularly measure Performance – by the numbers, Productivity – by what they do everyday, but what about Proficiency?

Until now you have never been able to measure the third “P” – How well they do it. If they all had the same training and all use the same tools, why are they not all producing the same results? Now you can measure Proficiency – a real game changer.

An organisation’s ability to motivate, measure and improve Sales Proficiency — the knowledge, skills and behaviours of its reps — is key to driving sales performance.

Proficiency is critical to linking sales enablement investments to business results, and should be a foundational metric of any program.

Advanced sales enablement organisations are using proficiency to gauge pipeline health and spot performance risk. Visibility to this data set supports more personalised training and coaching that helps all reps reach their potential.

Continuous sales enablement, guided by analytics, impacts critical KPIs ranging from win rates to new hire productivity.

This is where the rubber hits the road. No more random acts of sales support. Definitively be able to answer your questions and link them to your business outcomes.
