A case study like no other. In this series of sessions at BoS Conference USA 2023 we’ll deep dive into how Autobooks retooled their business and ask the question, “What Happens if Product, Sales & Marketing Work Together?”
By focussing everything they did on the needs of their customers and helping them grow, they also grew faster, made their lives easier and changed the way they think about collaboration across the company.
More on the Autobooks case study sessions.
Part Three
Kyle joined Autobooks as VP Sales. He knew that orgs run in their own silos and make decisions based off their own metrics. His sales operation was no different. He knew from experience that different metrics across the org would only be exacerbated as Autobooks scaled. He welcomed the idea of a radical new approach. It’s simpler if design is architected in a way that enables the company as it grows.
What if Autobooks rethought its sales processes in line with the wider changes on the organisation and focused on the end result for the customer?
Kyle shares how embracing a different approach to selling, more aligned with the work across the business, drove a significant change in sales. He discusses why and how he changed the entire compensation plan, stopped his sales team arguing about new feature requests, allowed his sales team to refuse demos and more.
Of course, you will get some hard numbers – including how sales cycle time, deal value, close rates and all the stuff that sales people like to talk about, were impacted.
