Salespeople can sell more by incorporating data science and technology into the way they actually sell. Data science offers reliable answers to the questions salespeople ask most often, such as: Where should I focus my time? Who should I sell to? What actions should I take?

Reps need this superpower incorporated into the way they work both in and out of the CRM.  Guest: Gabe Larsen, VP at InsideSales.com
