Make the Pivot: Transform the Sales Kick-Off Experience

Annual Sales Kick-Off events traditionally do two things: Focus the salesforce on priority initiatives and new revenue goals for the coming year. Celebrate the wins, accomplishment and learning from the prior year. Typically held in-person, often at a resort locale, these events provide an opportunity to mix business with celebration. But a 2020 disruption caused the need to pivot the offline sales event to a virtual experience in a hurry.
