Sales Enablement: Citius, Altius, Fortius • Is enabling enough to ensure Sales success? • Sales-centric or customer-centric? • What is missing?

2024 is the Olympic Games year! Let's explore how far Sales Enablement can leverage their motto.
“Citius, Altius, Fortius”—three Latin words meaning “Swifter, Higher, Stronger.”
Baron de Coubertin borrowed the motto from Father Henri Martin Dideono, the headmaster of Arcueil College in Paris.
The Olympic Games embody perseverance, ability, performance, and results—key ingredients for business success.
Customers are changing, business models are evolving, but closing deals remains the ultimate goal for every salesperson.
We develop tools and programs to reinforce our Sales perseverance to support even longer sales cycles.
We often focus on the ability to sell, occasionally measure our performance, but how deeply results and closing-centric are we?

Are Selling and Pitching the Same?

Many of us believe that pitching and selling are essentially the same thing. Although sales is closely related with pitch, but there is very fundamental difference between both. We can recognize a sales pitch when we hear one. The overly constructed content and rehearsed delivery make the hidden agenda plain as day. Pain points may be articulated in the bulletproof commercial dialogue. However, being pitched at without any interaction around the problem we’re trying to solve can feel dehumanizing. The truth is, pitching clients often does more harm than good to the potential of a sale.
