Optimize Virtual Collaboration With Aviso’s Digital Rooms

Virtual selling is here to stay!

According to the latest McKinsey research, hybrid selling is expected to be the most dominant sales strategy by 2024. While sellers want flexibility in how they work, buyers are also becoming more comfortable with the virtual model. In fact, two-thirds of buyers prefer virtual interactions to in-person meetings in different stages of the purchasing journey.

So while an increasing number of companies are choosing virtual selling in the post-pandemic disruptive environment, they realize the challenges it comes with.

And the biggest challenge is collaboration!

Read on to discover how you can help your teams to collaborate seamlessly, generate revenue, and thrive in the new normal of virtual selling.

The Need for Digital Rooms

Sales reps have a pressing need to strengthen their relationship with customers. On the other hand, managers are struggling to identify the skill gaps to coach their reps accordingly. These challenges make revenue leaders increasingly concerned about the efficiency of tools and technology out there for virtual selling.

Sales teams need a digital collaboration room that can provide them with an integrated and secure workspace where they can efficiently collaborate in a virtual set-up.

But if you look at the tools available in the market for the sales team — Webex, Zoom, MS Teams, etc. — you can see that most of these tools were never even built for the sales teams in the first place. They were actually built for engineers and others to collaborate with each other across the globe.

This is where Aviso’s digital rooms come into play. Aviso leverages artificial intelligence to supercharge collaboration within sales teams on all levels of the revenue cycle.

Benefits of Aviso’s Digital WarRooms

Aviso’s digital rooms provide a unified location for deal-specific or ad-hoc conversations, helping reps conduct their business from a single platform.

Here’s how these collaboration rooms meet the needs of the hybrid or fully remote revenue teams.

Provides a purpose-built collaboration space: Aviso provides a purpose-built space specifically designed to keep revenue teams in one place rather than taking them across multiple tools, thereby losing attention, contacts, and data. Digital WarRooms are dedicated spaces for conversations related to deals, forecasts, and coaching and provide visibility into all sales-related discussions in a single place.

Provides historical details: Workplace communication occurs through various channels, including emails, chats, and phone calls. This results in information silos, making it challenging to collaborate and share knowledge. Digital WarRooms contain an archive of forecast and deal review calls, thus providing all the historical details related to the deal. This helps in understanding the context and making informed decisions quickly without having to track down the information.

Brings transparency and efficiency: By facilitating communication between different team members, Digital WarRooms get work done faster, more efficiently, and in a transparent manner. Having deal-specific assets organized in one place maximizes productivity and accountability on an individual and team level, leading to faster deal movement.

Drives rep performance and team actions: Sales managers can use these rooms to coach their reps on the next steps to improve performance using the rep activity intelligence. This helps managers to identify winning plays, transfer them across their entire team, and turn every rep into a rockstar.

Generates real-time notifications: Sales leaders can have real-time information on all aspects of their pipeline at their fingertips, directing their teams to work on the right deals and make appropriate adjustments to meet their targets consistently.

Conclusion

Collaboration is an integral component of a fully functional and productive sales team, and collaboration in a hybrid set-up has its own set of unique pains. In a world of free Zoom and Slack accounts, it may seem counter-intuitive to seek out additional tools or capabilities. However, sales and deal collaboration via Aviso AI is a lot more than just live meetings and chats. At its simplest, it is a mode of communication between parties. At its finest, it creates an intricate web of signaling between team members, external agencies, stakeholders, and customers in order to achieve goals.
