• Companies with a clear and developed sales enablement function see a 10.2% higher revenue performance than firms who are less mature in this process.
• Sales enablement is growing with 32.2% of companies adopting a sales enablement function in 2015 (versus 14% in 2011).
• Companies with sales enablement are increasingly successful in meeting and exceeding their sales attainment goals in comparison with those that have yet to deploy consistent enablement strategies.

"Organizations are facing a challenge today with erosion in sales performance and today's salespeople are faced with multiple decision makers within the sales process.  Companies that have implemented sales enablement transformation understand that selling is a value-creation process in which they can achieve much better performance metrics and higher quality customer relationships," said Jim Dickie, Research Fellow, CSO Insights.

"The CSO Insights study confirms what we see with our customers:  they get better sales results with sales enablement," said Jason Liu, Chief Executive Officer, SAVO Group.  "SAVO is uniquely positioned to support and empower organizations as they advance their sales enablement processes and focus strategies to increase performance metrics."
