Growing a business can often create a complicated conundrum for entrepreneurs: How do we get the people who have what it takes to help us believe in our mission enough to take a risk and join the cause?

Anyone can set a goal. You can commit to selling more than anyone on your team, bringing in a major client, or doubling your conversion rate. But meeting your goal is far harder. What are the chances you'll actually outperform all your peers without a solid action plan? Not very high.

When sales can’t locate necessary content, marketers’ time and efforts have completely gone to waste, and as a result, reps’ time is also wasted looking for and putting together materials that they don’t realize already exist. Sellers spend around 43 hours a month searching for and gathering relevant information?
