Software Industry Veteran Shares Roadmap to Sales Transformation Success

Sales Enablement has emerged as a critical business function to address these challenges, but few understand how to unlock the power of enablement to drive sales transformation.

San Francisco, CA (USA), May 01st 2015 — In recent years, the pace of business has put increasing pressure on sales organizations. Sales Enablement has emerged as a critical business function to address these challenges, but few understand how to unlock the power of enablement to drive sales transformation.

“My sales enablement journey accelerated when I founded a thought leadership group called SalesCraft in 2009. SalesCraft focused on peers talking about best practices. From those ideas the opportunity to write a book about sales enablement evolved to help educate people about the power of sales enablement to transform sales strategy execution,” says Author and Speaker Sharon Little. “I have a great passion to inspire sales leaders, and today it is critical for companies to know how to fluidly adapt to rapid pace of change in business.”

In competitive markets, sales teams need every advantage possible and strong, visionary, prescriptive leadership. Constrained by outdated approaches to enabling sales teams, questions about organizational ownership and inexperience, sales enablement has been slow to reach full potential. That is why Sharon Little collaborated with Halo Publishing International to release “SalesCraft: The Enablement Advantage.”

“At an executive level there is a lot of pressure to deliver and it can be hard to figure out how to move the needle. My hope is to open up their eyes to the critical nature of having a reliable, predictable change agent in sales enablement. This is about more than training, it’s about getting ahead of the sales transformation curve and staying there ,” says Sharon.

The business climate is changing more rapidly, creating a dynamic and fluid selling environment. Field leadership feels the pace of change, but is constrained by quarterly demands and a lack of clear, proven strategies to drive reliable transformation. In SalesCraft: The Enablement Advantage, upper management learns how to implement an enablement function that inspires, differentiates and drives revenue. This book represents a true transformation in business practices designed to stay ahead of the growth curve and actively invest in the success of the sales team.

“Sharon’s work in sales enablement is inspired by more than 15 years working in areas that span both sales and marketing,” says Halo Publisher Lisa M. Umina. “She has in-depth experience in sales management, inside sales, sales operations, field marketing, lead generation and communications. That breadth of experience infuses Sharon’s work in sales enablement with practical insight and knowledge that can only be found in someone who has actually done the work.”

Success in sales is a balance of art and science and there is no better way to achieve this than through sales enablement. For every ambitious sales leader, sales enablement is something they need to understand better. For those looking to retain and grow their sales team, “SalesCraft: The Enablement Advantage” is your company’s secret weapon.

You can purchase “SalesCraft: The Enablement Advantage” by Sharon Little through Amazon, B&N, and Halo Publishing.

Hanoi, Vietnam, February 05, 2014 – Luxury Travel Vietnam founder Pham Ha said “we’re really excited to be working with PiC Travel in the UK as their ambition and passion meets our own.

Jason went on to say “Current market trends in the UK continue to show increased interest in luxury tours in Asia. Many travel experts increasingly recognize the great opportunities in selling Vietnam, Myanmar and the Indochina area”.

The Indochina area is increasingly appealing to British and European travelers especially as in the past few years Vietnam has seen the completion of many luxurious resorts with names such as Hyatt Regency Danang Resort and Spa, Intercontinental Peninsula Danang Sun Spa and Six Senses Con Dao, Amano’i entering the market and offering more choices for travelers. Vietnam is now one of the top ten destinations in Asia with the luxury sector being the fastest growing segment.

Luxury Travel will focus on developing those destinations that attract UK travelers including combining sightseeing in Hanoi, Saigon, Halong Bay, Angkor Wat (Cambodia) with beach vacations in Hoi An, Nha Trang, Phu Quoc. Luxury Travel marketing efforts and commitments will now attract even more British travelers who wish to experience Vietnam in style and luxury, and we will be trying to encourage them to stay longer” with current typical stays of 10-14 days in 5-star hotels.

Pham also announced that in 2014, Luxury Travel has designed a FAM trip for agents and professional travelers. This FAM trip is a great opportunity to experience Vietnam and for travel professionals to enrich their knowledge of this intriguing land and friendly people. Agents will return home from the FAM trip fully equipped as Vietnamese travel specialists, allowing them to generate public awareness of Vietnam as a high-end holiday destination.

Brain Abundance has strategic global relationships that enables them to deliver Brain Fuel Plus from its five international distribution centers.

Michael Beal said,”When I saw what Brain Abundance put together, my experience enabled me to see a giant in the making. Many factors have to be in place for something to grab hold of the marketplace and have the infrastructure and leadership to maintain it. I love this business model. The simplicity and power of a self duplicating business based on what everyone does everyday, has held my attention all these years. Since then, I have built teams in the thousands, but I was looking for a business that can truly deliver this dream again to millions around the world and we have that with Brain Abundance.”

Brain Abundance is in pre-launch and yet has all of it’s infrastructure in place with its unique cloud based communication systems, 5 international distribution centers, fully functional web systems with ordering and tracking in place.

Caprarese has based his model on an already successful and proven business within the industry. This strategic allience is what will enable BA to move extremely quickly to the market place.

The company has created a extremely unique “Accelerated Binary” plan that pays out faster, bigger, and deeper that most can afford due to its debt free position and cloud social marketing strategy. Caprarese said, “How can we afford to payout so much more to so many more people? EASY! We are the first cloud social marketing company! No expensive office buildings with expensive employees. We get the best of the best from around the world to support Brain Abundance Corporate and our tremendous growth.”

Brain Abundance will market Brain Fuel Plus, an stand alone product with 13 ingredients addressing the brain and its ability to affect every part of the body.

The company says, ” Brain Fuel Plus is Designed to help maintain healthy brain function, Brain Fuel PLUS is the FIRST and ONLY product available ANYWHERE that combines THIRTEEN of most powerful ingredients to help feed, support, and maximize healthy brain performance.

In fact, thanks to our Co-founder Dr. Pejman Behrouzi, along with our team of top experts in the fields of neuroscience, nutrition, medical science, and product formulation Brain Fuel PLUS is the most complete supplement for your brain ever created!”

Brain Abundance utilizes a marketing and team building system that complements its cloud social marketing strategy.

Beal says, ” The system is a marketers dream allowing them to do business at the speed of the internet, but also empowering people who have real lives and don’t have the time or resources to build a business retailing product or doing in-home meetings several nights per week.” The system is fantastic, but we’ve all seen one system or another, but the infrastructure has to be behind it to really make it work.”

Our Goal is to raise $1M dollars to support the building of underground shelters at each of the schools that were destroyed.

Gorham, New Hampshire, January 28, 2013 – Supporting the objective of building a market-centric organization, Gorham Paper and Tissue hired Pam Miller for a newly created Director of Marketing position.

In this role, Miller will work collaboratively with sales and manufacturing to refine the company’s marketing strategy. On the tactical side she will drive segmentation work, implement lead generation activities, utilize research to gain customer insight and produce foundation materials that optimize Gorham’s branding, positioning and portfolio of products.

“Great things are happening at Gorham. We are building capability and customers rapidly. Having Pam in this role will formalize our marketing efforts, communicate our competitive advantage, drive value creation and hone our go-to-market strategy,” said Brian McAlary, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

Miller brings to the company over 20 years of industry experience working for some of the largest paper manufacturers in North America including the former Champion International, International Paper, MeadWestvaco and Twin Rivers. At these companies she helped build marketing competency while enhancing external communication.

McAlary added, “We have one of the most differentiated paper portfolios in the business that includes tissue, towel, packaging papers embedded with barrier properties, colored converting papers, high-volume printing papers and custom-engineered papers with technical attributes like flame-retardant or wet strength. One of Pam’s first challenges is to help us communicate our breadth of capability which is complemented by an unusually responsive service platform.”

The RAACE Foundation Selects Incite Creative to Help Race Against the Abuse of Children Everywhere

The RAACE Foundation is dedicated to eliminating the epidemic of child sexual abuse by raising public awareness.

Baltimore, MD, November 10, 2012 – The RAACE Foundation is dedicated to eliminating the epidemic of child sexual abuse by raising public awareness. Its volunteers, advocates and members of TeamRAACE achieve the organization’s mission by competing in all forms of sports at venues coast-to-coast, as well as at business and community events nationwide. The RAACE Foundation also conducts speaking engagements and distributes awareness materials, all in the effort to keep children safe from abuse. Incite Creative, a local marketing and graphic design firm, has been selected to lead the Foundation’s brand building initiatives.
­
Statistics show that 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 7 boys are sexually abused before the age of 18. Furthermore, in 95% of reported cases, the abuser is someone the child knows and trusts. Founded in 2004 by Baltimore businessman Kenneth Smith, The RAACE Foundation’s primary purpose is to educate — educate parents, children, and those who serve them — all in an effort to protect them from becoming one of these staggering statistics. In an effort to build upon the Foundation’s existing brand awareness and put a “circle of trust” exercise into every parent’s/caregiver’s hands, Smith and Executive Director Brad Brickel reached out to Incite Creative to help further their mission.

“Over the past ten years, we have been working hard to situate The Race Against Abuse of Children Everywhere Foundation in the public eye,” states Smith. Every September we take a strategic look at the organization, specifically aligning our discipline and values with our needs and goals to understand our next step. The result this year was that in order to get to the next level, we needed a fresh look at The RAACE Foundation; one from the outside – with more experience in marketing and social media skills, one that could support and understand our core beliefs and core markets. After meeting with Dina Wasmer and her Incite Creative colleagues, the one thing that stood out was their ability to listen. They offered solutions and said that they could help without an extensive sales pitch. Simply put, we understood right away that they heard us loud and clear. They know our market and how to reach it. Their experience speaks for itself and we are very excited to get started. We are looking forward to a long and storied relationship.”

As the Foundation’s outsourced Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), Incite Creative will kick things off by launching an Annual Fund campaign, then develop and implement a strategic marketing plan for 2013 that includes tactics for building ambassadors who are willing to take part in The RAACE Foundation’s “Time to Talk” program.

“We’re fortunate to work with a number of child-serving organizations, including schools, autism awareness initiatives, and child advocacy organizations”, states Wasmer. “Therefore when we were first introduced to The RAACE Foundation, we were excited and confident that we could play a pivotal role in helping this worthwhile organization succeed. After meeting with Kenneth and Brad, my colleagues and I absorbed their passion and tenacity to drive child sexual abuse out of the shadows, and are honored to be part of their team.”
