In a modern recurring revenue business, it is almost impossible to scale without Enablement.
When scaling, either by hiring more reps and/or expanding into new markets, by creating new sales channels or simply by increasing the productivity of the existing roles, enablement becomes critical. However, in today’s unpredictable economical environment investing in an in-house enablement function is a risky bet as the time to ROI is long, it requires hiring a team of enablement professionals that need time to setup the proper environment for developing the enablement services and investing in tools to orchestrate the delivery.
