Bob Apollo of Inflexion-Point uncovers the obstacles and offers effective real-world remedies.

    This presentation will appeal to any marketing leader who is determined to do a better job of sales enablement - and any sales leader who is determined to collaborate more effectively with their colleagues in marketing.
