With so many new technologies and trends clouding the view, it’s easy to lose sight of the basics. Many organisations have simply forgotten the essential elements that underpin a successful sales and marketing approach.

What many organisations don’t realise is that the key elements remain the same as they always have. Businesses need to make sure that all sales and marketing activities are based on one shared strategy, with common goals and priorities that put the customer at the heart of every activity and decision. With a focus on the customer, rather than individual department objectives, there’s a clear framework that underpins everything. All people, processes, systems and channels will be better aligned – and therefore provide greater business value.

In our guide, we look at the importance of a unified approach across sales and marketing including:

  • The challenge of technological development
  • The importance of alignment
  • Getting back to basics
  • Choosing the right channel

You will learn the key steps in establishing a solid framework:

  • Developing a strategy
  • Gathering insights
  • Establishing lead qualification
  • Creating consistent messaging
  • Strengthening communication
