New blog: 

Don’t beg. Don’t bug. Use your Champion

Enterprise deals are complex and often stall due to the internal dynamics of a customer’s buying process. That’s where your Champion becomes critical.

Using Champions in the Decision process

Our latest blog shares how to qualify real Champions, use them effectively in the Decision process, and build relationships that drive predictability in the final stages of closing.

Clari Comparison - Ebsta

Sales Qualification Report

Continuous qualification with MEDDPICC matters, as this Ebsta report shows. A well qualified deal closes nearly 22% faster and has a win rate 6x higher than a poorly qualified deal, and having your Champion in an internal sales meeting shortens sales cycles by an average of 15%. 

Discover more about these stats, and many more, in the full report.
