Opportunity Management Made Easy
SOS (Sales Opportunity Snapshot) is the next-generation in opportunity management for enterprise sales organizations. It provides a structured, scalable process for qualifying, planning and winning strategic sales opportunities where competitors are strong and customer buying protocols are influenced by formal and informal decision criteria.
SOS is available in English and Spanish. Also see our other workshop: Selling at the Executive Level (SellXL).
