Here are few key learnings -

  • During difficult times such as COVID, the value of each inbound lead increases. Hence it's very important for sales teams to work more closely with the marketing team till conversion. It helps you exactly understand the marketing team's needs and the ways you can add value.

  • Listening to your prospects/customers closely and providing value as a marketer/salesperson is extremely critical. This also helps you in improving your messaging.

  • You need to prioritise your sales outreach depending on the current impact of the pandemic on the region you're targeting.
