Virtual Expert Panel Workshop on Lead Flow & Making Sales
Covid-19 has dramatically altered sales prospects’ behaviors, needs, and mindsets. We can't just change our tag-lines and expect customers to start buying. We all have a lot to figure out how to make it through this crisis and how to adapt, set up, and succeed in a changing environment and buyer/sales funnel.
This coming Thursday, on May 28th at 12:30PM EST, enabling ideas® has assembled a multi-disciplinary team of top-notch revenue experts; design thinkers; researchers; brand strategists; and marketing, communications, and sales experts to help lead you through completing your new playbook for these challenging times.
