WEBINAR
What to do when Top Down Goals Collide with Bottoms Up RealityWebinar Details:
Date: Wednesday, 4 December 2019
Time: 1:00 pm Eastern to 1:45 pm Eastern
SiriusDecisions research shows that only a little more than half of sales organizations complete their sales planning process prior to the start of the fiscal year and 34% modify quota, comp or account assignments after initial implementation – introducing uncertainty and delay in the selling motion. Often times the delay and rework are driven by a gap between top-down expectations for growth run headlong into the reality of “bottoms-up” execution. Even carefully designed plans can run headlong into the reality of sales turnover, time to hire and ramp times, as sales and sales operations leaders struggle to rapidly expand sales capacity and productivity.

Options for addressing the gap between top-down goals and the bottoms-up plan
Real-world examples, key learnings and practical advice from sales and sales operations leaders on ways to quickly address revenue shortfalls
