Your Pipeline Isn’t the Problem. Your Sales Engagement Is.
Most organizations have marketing doing its job and a sales team ready to close. Yet the pipeline still isn’t growing the way it should. Sound familiar?
The answer is rarely about budget, headcount, or strategy. More often than not, it comes down to one overlooked issue: salespeople who are not actively engaged in lead generation.
Where the Marketing Funnel and Sales Pipeline Meet
The digital age has opened the door to more potential customers than ever before. But access alone does not build a pipeline.
Organizations that are truly capitalizing on today’s landscape are the ones that have figured out how to align their sales and marketing functions so both are working together from the top of the funnel all the way to close.
In my Fractional VP Sales practice, I work with small and mid-sized businesses every day. I see three consistent reasons why sellers get left out of the lead generation process, and I see the revenue impact that comes with it.
The good news? Once those gaps are identified, closing them is very achievable.
In my latest article update, “How Do I Engage Sales in Lead Generation?”, I break down why the sales engagement gap exists, what it is costing your organization, and the practical framework for fixing it, starting with how the Marketing Funnel and Sales Pipeline are meant to work together.
If your pipeline growth has plateaued, this is worth the read.
