Existing Solution Exacerbates Sales Cycle Complexity
Providing employee benefit management solutions means Jellyvision operates in lockstep with open enrollment season, the three months out of the year that benefits — and how to manage them — are top of mind for employers and employees alike. “Ninety percent of all of the deals our sales team is going to sign are signed between August through October each year, which leaves many months where we’re not closing deals,” explained Heather Green, director of enablement at Jellyvision. “We can create opportunities, but we don’t know how fully they’re progressing.” Facing a slim window for active selling, Jellyvision’s reps need to not only be able to build and track strong buyer relationships year-round but also impact the outcome at key moments.
However, Jellyvision’s previous enablement solution struggled to adequately support reps’ needs. Very few reps even used it, and a quick content audit and survey showed why. “The key feedback we received is that it was just difficult to use,” shared Green. “It was hard to find content, and it was even harder to edit content. We got resounding results that it was difficult, and no one wanted to engage with it.” Facing low engagement with their initiatives and grappling with budgetary waste on an ineffective solution, Jellyvision’s enablement team decided a change was in order. First on the docket was switching to a solution that would spark the returns they sought.
For Jellyvision, the choice was simple. “Knowing the value of a platform like [Highspot], I was able to start putting the seeds down for making a change.” Seeing the potential Highspot offered, change wasn’t just a nice-to-have — it was an essential priority.
