Collibra’s sales operations team faces many challenges that most fast-paced sales organizations experience every sales period. Led by Erica Boccard in their New York office, Collibra needed predictability in their sales outcomes, more effective sales meetings and better visibility in sales rep’s pipelines.

Now, a customer of TopOPPS, Collibra is leveraging artificial intelligence to help her sales team become more effective and predictable. ...

  In January 2015, Matt Dooley decided to use TopOPPS to help his team keep their heavy equipment rental calendar booked to prevent lost opportunities and to reduce idle equipment. Forecasting was historically difficult causing lack of confidence in inventory availability. There was insufficient pipeline data to effectively plan. Matt expressed that he didn’t want his reps to feel he was shoving them into the CRM, yet he needed to plan for the proper utilization of equipment. “I felt like I was constantly saying Update, Update, Update.” Buckner needed to know which deals would close and when. Without this empirical data and facts - they could not add the inventory necessary to meet the potential revenue. ...

Chris posted this blog on LinkedIn about how his team achieved great results from their 1-on-1s using TopOPPS technology.

Through automation of our policies, systems, and tools we have reduced the amount of time the sales team needs to focus on our CRM system to less than fifteen minutes per day.  My reps appreciate the time we take to review how they’re doing and strategize how to blow their number out. Since implementing these two coaching strategies, we have seen reduced sales cycle times and increased win rates. ...

A sure-fire method to extend the sales cycle, add confusion to the forecast, and lose more deals is to have an informal sales process.  Having a B2B sales process that’s too simplistic leads to inconsistency and confusion. Imagine if a recipe just listed “add ingredients, mix, then heat”. Or a football running play, like the counter, was described as “run, fake, handoff”.  You would not have much success in the outcome of either of those scenarios.  So, don’t expect much sales growth when you have a few general sales stages that leaves a lot to the imagination.  Your reps will be all over the place when they strategize on next steps, report deal status or provide a forecast.  Your sales process has to be well aligned with the activity that goes into a successful sale - that is based on how your customers buy.  It should also help in making decisions on next steps and be consistently understood by the entire sales team (sales rep, sales ops, sales management). ...
