Adapting to high-stakes market conditions

Getting buyers to sign on the dotted line hasnever been easy. But guiding champions to makepurchase decisions has become increasinglydifficult in recent years. Complex buyingcommittees, longer sales cycles, heightenedscrutiny, explosive competition—it’s a perfectstorm that sellers struggle to navigate. “Buyershave changed over the last three to five years,”began Brahm Heyman, director of enterprisesales, specialty contractors at Procore. “Peoplehave access to more information than ever.More people are getting involved in every salescycle. Evaluations are more heavily scrutinizedfor ROI and solution fit.”Add intense competition to the mix, and everydeal becomes an uphill battle. “There’scompetition for every single deal my teamis working on at the moment,” added Heyman.In the face of these challenging circumstances,every organization is seeking a path forward.

But not every organization is buildinga long-term strategy for remaining agileand effective like Procore is.To rise above the competition and buildconfidence with every buyer that entersthe deal, Procore knew its sellers needed tobe strategic players, equipped with high-quality,well-tailored content.As it sought to develop its sales force, Procorehad previously put another enablement solutionin place, but had not seen the success it neededto. This previous solution struggled to address thechallenges Procore faced and left the organizationwondering if there was a better way. “How do Iequip my team with the latest technology, whetherit’s AI or the latest tools that will improve howthey’re executing in their day-to-day?” askedHeyman. As the team evaluated Highspot,the answer soon became clear.

When we’re navigating multiple buyers throughout the sales cycle, it’s even more important to show up as an expert.
