The CSO Insights 2018-2019 Sales Performance Report found that account planning helps organizations to capture new accounts and grow existing ones. Account planning that “exceeds expectations” resulted in 59% win rates and 62% quota attainment. Yet, despite such obvious benefits, many companies are not account planning. Your org can’t afford to be one of them.
