Collaboration Between Sales and Marketing

Monday, March 1 2010

The amount of ‘noise’ your Marketing efforts need to cut through in our modern society is higher than ever before. There are more media channels you can use to reach to reach your target audience than ever before. So the information flowing from your organisation needs to be more relevant and more focussed than ever before.

Many organisations are struggling to understand why specific campaigns are not as successful as they used to be. If there is no communication between your Sales and Marketing departments, how can the message to your target market be consistent and effective?

Marketing campaigns need to focus on the problems of your target customers, not the features and benefits of your products. Your sales team discuss problems with customers and prospects every day, so why not harness this intelligence and use it as the basis of the next campaign?

Sales and Marketing should be using the same system and the same database to nurture a customer from the point of first contact through to completion of the sale. Only then can your organisation truly understand what a successful sales process involves and have the ability to analyse how it can be repeated.
