The Challenge

The sales operations intelligence challenge

Sales Operations teams are the engine room of revenue organizations, responsible for tool selection, process optimization, data quality, and rep enablement. Yet the average enterprise sales stack now includes 10-15 tools, most of which create more complexity than value. Every new tool adds integration burden, data management overhead, and change management friction that falls squarely on Sales Ops.

The intelligence gap is particularly painful for Sales Ops leaders. Reps constantly request help researching accounts, assembling competitive intelligence, and preparing for meetings — tasks that pull Operations away from strategic initiatives. Meanwhile, the data flowing through the CRM is often stale, incomplete, or lacking the contextual intelligence reps actually need to advance deals.

Sales Ops also bears responsibility for onboarding and enabling new hires. In industries with complex selling motions, new reps need months to ramp — a period during which they are dependent on Sales Ops support for account research, territory understanding, and process guidance. Any tool that accelerates this ramp time directly reduces the operational burden.

Customer Story

How Cytel cut research time by 50% and consolidated 5 tools into one

The Challenge

Cytel's Sales Operations team was spending significant time supporting reps with data collection and account research across five or more disconnected tools. The Head of Sales Operations needed to reduce the admin burden on her team while giving reps a centralized, easy-to-use source of account intelligence that did not require extensive training or change management.

The Solution

Salesmotion consolidated five research tools into one platform and was described by Cytel's Head of Sales Operations as the easiest vendor onboarding she had ever experienced. The platform reduced admin time for Sales Ops to near-zero, cut rep research time by 50%, and required no formal training — reps adopted it independently within the first week.

All of the vendors that I've worked with, all of the onboarding that I have had to deal with, I will say, hands down, Salesmotion was the easiest that I have had.
