Allego represents the next era of sales enablement. Our all-in-one, rep-centric platform ensures that sellers have the skills, knowledge, and content they need to optimize team success in a virtual world. In place of traditional training and content enablement tactics – which are rapidly outdated and often ineffective – Allego empowers reps with the activated content they need to close deals faster, and the personalized coaching and learning they require for continuous improvement. And it all happens in the flow of their daily work.
 
Whether it’s providing feedback to one another through asynchronous video, or enhancing their skills through AI-powered coaching and peer-to-peer collaboration, nearly 500,000 professionals are using Allego to revolutionize the way they onboard, train, collaborate, and sell.

Let’s face it…

You don’t have months or years to figure out the best way to communicate, coach, or collaborate with each member of your sales team. 

But each sales rep has to pull their own weight this year. 

In fact, you need them to overperform!

Kick off March with a bang by joining Alex Mackenzie, Head of Enterprise Sales at Crystal Knows, and Billy Salewala, Sales Development Leader at Allego, as they explain why a personalized approach to rep development is easier than you think.

You’ll learn:
- Why sales leaders should make the switch to a fully tailored approach
- Best practices to scale robust, engaging, and personalized experiences
- The positive impact of personalization on the buying experience
- How to arm your sellers with adaptive and agile techniques to improve performance

How to Elevate the Seller Experience Based on Unique Personalities

Are you struggling to effectively use all of the enablement content at your disposal? Do you feel like you have a hodgepodge of resources and don't know when and how to deploy them?

In this masterclass, we’ll discuss how the best sales reps employ enablement content to move deals forward and accelerate pipeline. We’ll share real-life examples of how to manage sales enablement assets, so you'll come away with practical tips and techniques that you can put into action right away.

You’ll learn:
- Strategies to get more value out of every piece of enablement content
- How to create a system to measure the effectiveness of your enablement efforts
- Exactly how hyper-growth companies manage every step of the enablement content lifecycle

Effortless Enablement: Maximizing Sales Content Impact for Sellers

In 2023, the success of your sales team will be determined in large part by how effectively sellers use content. 

If you’re like most organizations, you have a comprehensive repository of solution briefs, case studies, videos, product guides, and more to support sellers. 

But creating great content is not enough. Sellers must know WHEN and HOW to use it.

Sellers need context to squeeze the most juice out of every piece of content.

In this session, we’ll reveal what brand-new research tells us about:
- Who should deliver new content to sales
- What types of contextual (agile) content should accompany sales collateral
- Why marketing must accept their inherent credibility gap and learn how to turn weakness into strength 
- The secret recipe for sales content adoption

Stop letting sales content stay on the shelf!

New Research Reveals the Key to Motivating Sellers to Use Content

How many sales tools did you consider in 2022?

How many did you buy?

It’s difficult to know if any given tool is worth investing in, let alone which platforms will actually power your teams to create and close revenue more efficiently and effectively.

That’s why we asked more than 1,000 Sales Hacker community members about their experience with 60+ tools across 7 categories.

We examined which tools are used more by high-performing teams, which led to some insights we weren’t expecting when we began this study.

You'll learn:
- The sales technologies most likely to power you past your revenue targets
- Why sales leaders are planning big changes to their sales tech investments in 2023
- How to think about investment in your sales tech stack for an edge in 2023

New Research: The State of the Sales Tech Stack in 2023

Research shows 84% of buyers say sales reps don’t effectively convey value when selling virtually. 

Other common mistakes that reps make: not personalizing the conversation, talking too much, and delivering the pitch too early.

With virtual selling here to stay, fixing these mistakes is critical. If you don’t, your sales reps won’t hit quota.

But you’re only one person, managing several sales reps—all of whom need customized coaching.

 - How can you improve an individual sales rep’s performance?
 - How do you gain insight into where reps are falling short and why?
 - How can you identify where revenue is being won and lost?
 - How do you coach multiple sellers located in different locations?

Conversation Intelligence can help you get the answers to those questions. Join Allego’s Jake Miller to learn how you can use the AI-powered coaching tool to identify skill gaps, pinpoint where revenue is won or lost, prescribe training to fix specific behaviors that lose sales, and keep deals moving through the pipeline.

2021 State of Conversation Intelligence

Getting Real About Sales Coaching: Provide Real Help for Real Conversations in Real Time – Even When Managers Can’t or Won’t

Less than 15 percent of sellers believe their managers provide sufficient levels of coaching on how to have better customer conversations, according to Corporate Visions research.

Sellers are left to try and self-assess and self-identify the best training or coaching materials to help them do their own jobs more effectively. They keep winging it call-after-call, customer-after-customer, and most likely missing their biggest blind spots.

It’s creating a gigantic performance improvement gap for most companies. What can you do?

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to use technology-enabled coaching to make sellers more self-sufficient and coaches more effective at scale, no matter if teams are remote, in-person, or anywhere in between.

Join Doug Hutton, Senior Vice President of Product at Corporate Visions, and George Donovan, Chief Revenue Officer at Allego, to learn how you can:

  - Provide Real Help – Enable sellers with tailored feedback and coaching content tied to specific call performance, not generalized manager observations and opinions.
  - Based on Real Conversations – Identify gaps and opportunities based on actual deal and decision-maker dialogues, not simulated or manager-led roleplay scenarios.
  - Delivered in Real Time – Apply call recording and AI to provide coaching immediately after a call, not waiting for a manager who might never listen and give feedback.

The era of rep-centric sales enablement has arrived. Are you prepared?

Learning and content capabilities are merging. Technologies like conversation intelligence and AI-powered coaching can provide deeper insights and better, more scalable sales support than ever before. But in order to be truly effective, today’s enablement tools and strategies must be focused on answering a single question: how can reps be more effective at selling in a virtual world?

This requires a mindset shift that aligns everyone on the revenue team—from marketing to sales to customer success—around seller needs. Sales content can no longer simply be distributed and abandoned, it needs to be activated to ensure reps know how to use it. And learning can’t just be forced onto teams from the top down…it must be shared and consumed by sellers.
