Ideas on how vendors can add more value at conferences
- Talk about the state of the solution category
- Teach attendees the nuances of the solution category and who benefits most
- Stop tone-deaf pitches
- Run workshops on how to manage the adoption of the solution category
- Run workshops on how to do what they automate manually (opportunity to enable people with low budget and to showcase automation/integration benefits)
Conference insights
- Specialized enablers in large organizations tend to crave greater influence
- There are fewer enablement roles in APAC
- New industries are pushing into enablement (such as banking, professional services)
- There are a lot of remote enablers
- Ongoing challenge to create awareness around the need for localized enablement approach
- Cultural sensitivities are worth considering when dealing with international sales teams
- Compensation structure can be aligned with corporate strategic pillars
- Enablers should encourage above-the-line thinking (positive and empowered)
- Workshop in a box approach can help small enablement teams achieve scale
- There is still a lack of focus on business metrics and impact
