Technology has improved every area in business. From marketing to operations to customer service, technology makes things easier, faster, and more effective. That certainly holds true for sales. While traditional wisdom and psychology tend to dominate the sales industry, effective use of technology can make an enormous difference. How your team manages and tracks leads, how your team handles repetitive sales actions, and how your team closes deals can all be improved with technology. Is your team using technology to sell better? If not, here are some ways it can start:

Growing your team takes time. It's critical to find the right people for the right roles, but dedicating hours to that search isn't easy. You have your entire business to worry about and recruitment is just one part. Between reviewing resumes, contacting candidates, and deliberating decisions, it's nearly a full-time job in and of itself. If you need a lot of help, quickly, that can feel like an insurmountable challenge. There aren't enough hours in the day. That's when it makes sense to reach out to a third party to do the recruitment heavy lifting. You can go a traditional staffing route. You can go directly to a head-hunter or recruiter. Here's why you should consider a digital partner and on-site digital consulting:

Content is for more than marketing. While content does an effective job of building brand awareness, boosting SEO, and telling your company's story, it's also a valuable sales tool. Content can make cold calls or emails less awkward. It can help explain complicated products and services. It can nurture leads your marketing efforts have captured. Content can even be used to close deals. What is 'content'? In this case, it's written collateral (like blogs, case studies, and eBooks), video, and AR/VR experiences. Essentially, it's anything that marketing produces that can be integrated into your sales process. When marketing and sales work together, it makes both stronger. Start using these strategies for incorporating content into sales: 

The adage goes, 'it's hard to read the label when you're inside the bottle.' That's why bringing outside perspective into your building is so critical for your company's long-term success and adaptability. Businesses are at a constant risk of being disrupted by technology. Typically, disruption happens when business leaders fail to see the signs and react accordingly. By bringing in digital consultants, you'll be accounting for your blind spots and can avoid disruption. What can an outside team voice that you're unlikely to find in your own building? 

'Smarketing,' like 'blog,' is one of those terms that sounds unserious. As a result, business leaders tend to dismiss it upon first mention. 'Smarketing,' a portmanteau of 'sales' and 'marketing,' is a concept that's too important to dismiss or ignore. Mastering smarketing means mastering sales and marketing at once. In turn, your business is better positioned for long-term success. Your marketing and sales efforts need to be aligned. Getting your marketing and sales teams working together will help your business run more smoothly and it will lead to more closed deals. The biggest question that needs to be answered is: where's the hand-off? Where does marketing end and sales begin? When you answer that essential question, both processes begin to fall into place.

When a company reaches out to an agency for staffing, it's typically done because said company is attempting to expedite the hiring process and find qualified candidates to fill seats. On-site digital consulting is different. While it can cut down on the hiring process and does yield qualified candidates, digital consultants do more than fill seats. In-house digital consultants can become an invaluable extension of your team, giving you new advantages:

HubSpot can streamline your sales process. If you're not familiar with HubSpot's sales tools, you owe it to yourself to do some digging and find out what you've been missing.

HubSpot allows your team to work smarter, refine processes, and close more deals.

What are the advantages of an on-site consulting team? Most business leaders understand the value of consulting, but only a few have thought through the advantages of bringing a consulting team in-house. If you're just starting to ponder the idea, keep reading. Having digital consultants in your business can be a tremendous advantage and can give your business the boost that it needs. Here's how:
