In this episode…Sales and marketing play vital roles in brand awareness and lead generation. However, relationships between these teams can sometimes be contentious. What methods can leadership take to unite the departments harmoniously?
The first step is to foster a relationship between marketing and sales through communication, collaboration, and camaraderie events such as happy hour. Seasoned marketing expert Andrew Baird affirms that it’s vital to team dynamics not to discriminate between parties involved with the customer experience because they’re all working towards a common goal. Nonetheless, a positive rapport between the teams starts with leadership, so Andrew suggests developing a committee of department heads representing all functions. This panel would be responsible for designing a plan or agreement that outlines mutual goals, such as customers’ needs and KPIs, and appointing a designated enabler. An enabler’s primary focus is to keep the sales and marketing teams on track and remind them of the intended plans. Upon achieving the desired results, Andrew advocates for celebrating successes to boost morale and encourage teamwork.
