Busy SDRs, Empty Pipeline: You have A Funnel Qualification Problem
In most organizations, this problem is identified far too late . Teams sense that something isn’t working - but they look in the wrong direction. By the time leadership realizes the issue isn’t skills, it’s already expensive to fix. Headcount has been churned. Tools have been swapped. Processes have been “tightened.” And still, nothing moves. This article is meant to help TOFU teams identify overqualification early - and remediate it before it calcifies into a systemic failu

Here is why Enablement are your best Co-Pilots
Every great pilot has a co-pilot. The same is true in GTM: Modern selling is a high-pressure cockpit. Playbooks evolve constantly. Messaging changes. Competitors reposition. Buyers show up better informed - and less patient for poorly educated reps. New reps join, veterans need to adapt, and everyone is expected to stay sharp. This is exactly why Enablement must act as your team’s co-pilot. Who Needs a Co-Pilot? Short answer: everyone in GTM. New hires need a co-pilot to fla

Why books are the new High-Impact GTM swag
Corporate events are full of noise - slides, booths, pitches, promises. But the real breakthroughs don’t happen on the expo floor. They happen after , when leaders slow down to reflect and rethink. That’s why a book is such a powerful strategic gift. A book doesn’t interrupt. It invites . It reframes challenges, sparks new thinking, and plants ideas that keep working long after the event ends. This year, Second Nature , the leading AI role-play platform, chose to treat their

The early warning signs your GTM system is slowing you down
(And how Enablement can turn these issues into strategic advantages) Every GTM organization produces signals. Some are loud - missed quota, churn, falling win rates. But the most dangerous ones are the subtle early indicators that your revenue system is fundamentally misaligned. These issues slow you down quietly… until the cost becomes impossible to ignore. And here’s the truth: If Enablement doesn’t identify and address these issues early, they compound into bigger problem

Measuring Sales Performance Beyond Win Rates
Sales organizations often rely on lagging indicators like win rates or total revenue to evaluate performance. The problem? By the time those numbers surface, it’s too late to course-correct. That’s like waiting until the end of the season to tell a baseball player how to swing. Project Moneyball offers a different approach: measure performance across key milestones in real-time instead of waiting for deals to close. This way, we compare how reps perform against the proven p

Is Competition Killing Your Business? Here Are 5 Analytical Tips
Competition gives birth to innovation. That’s a fact. Without competition iPod, iPhone, Windows, and Google would probably have not been part of our lives today. Without competition, humans on the moon would still be remembered as a chapter in Jules Verne’s famous book. If competition is a good thing, where's the problem? We (humans) are always looking for new products, new experiences, new features and new capabilities. When businesses compete, consumers (like ourselves) ge

Are your B-Players burning your best leads?
I found a $3M leak and no one saw it coming! Let me tell you a story. Back when I led Enablement at a global company, I noticed something odd: our top-performing reps were struggling to hit quota, while mid-level reps were mysteriously booking tons of meetings. Turns out, SDRs were hand-picking which AEs got the good leads - bypassing the automated system. The result? 🥇 Our best closers weren’t getting enough at-bats 🤷♂️ Less experienced reps were burning through hig
