Hey Savages,
I feel like sales enablement doesn't know what they are talking about 95% of the time, they either have never sold, have little to no experience in sales, or they sold for 6 months 5 years ago, yet they advise on all aspects of sales and are supposed to create an onboarding plan for us.
The reason for my rant is that I'm crushing it at my role, have exceeded all expectations in my short tenure so far, yet I receive a passive aggressive slack about two damn modules that i didn't complete during my onboarding, which was almost two months ago.
I had no idea it was incomplete otherwise i would have done it and move on, idc. The director of sales enablement slacked me saying his minion reached out in the past few weeks to ask me to finish it, blah, blah, blah. Which is not true, I checked my last conversation with the girl helping me and it was a month ago and didn't mention anything about these damn modules.
What annoys me is that on top of offering zero value, they are the ones annoyed when I am the one doing all this busy work instead of focusing on what really matters.
Lastly, they don't do anything but talk about adding decks and saying hi to new hires, they are even worse than marketing.
Anyone feel similarly about sales enablement?
