About the Sales Enablement Framework

Sales enablement is an enthralling yet complicated field. Want to support and motivate your sales team? Want to boost revenue? There are a host of concepts to master first.

Our Sales Enablement Framework covers all those concepts. Use it to navigate your enablement journey from start to finish.

For each of SE’s five fundamental stages: strategy and planning, content, tech and tools, learning and development, and growth, our framework arms you with the info you need.

Stage 1

Strategy and
planning

Sales enablement is a strategic discipline. Without meticulous planning and a strategic approach, you won't maximize your sales team's potential. Understanding the biggest drivers for becoming a strategic influence in your org is an essential part of any successful sales enablement journey. Think proactive, not reactive. That's how you showcase SE’s true strength as a function.


Stage 2

Content

Sales enablement content is a major part of any enablement strategy. It can come in the form of a playbook, a deck of battle cards, or a set of sales scripts. But your content is one of the most powerful ways you can enable your sales reps. Just remember to train them on how to use your shiny new content!


Stage 3

Tech and tools

Even the best solo enablers need support. Today's sales tools and tech can help you support your reps at scale. From CRM integrations and sales automation tools, to combined CMS, LMS, and readiness tools, there are countless ways that technology can help you empower your sales team.


Stage 4

Learning and development

Training, coaching, and learning and development are at the heart of sales enablement. But taking sales teams away from their desks is a big deal. So you have to ensure every session improves performance. It's cheaper to retain and cultivate talent than to recruit anew, so learning and development initiatives are always a powerful tool in any enabler’s arsenal.


Stage 5

Growth

Growth. Sustainable, repeatable growth. This is what sales enablement is all about. Growing revenue. Growing the sales team's confidence. Growing the connections between cross-functional departments in your organization. But knowing how to track your successes? Knowing how to project your enablement plans into the future? These are surefire ways of earning a seat at the table. Use what you learn here to showcase the power of enablement to your leadership team.
