Qotient is a cloud based sales enablement platform that delivers a library of sales conversations including insights, sales questions and marketing collateral in real-time, into the hands of the sales team. Sales teams then use these conversations to assist them in converting sales calls into opportunities.

Qotient gives C-Level executives, marketing and sales real-time clarity on the ROI of the sales conversation process across teams or departments.

MARKET UPDATE
Qotient results in increased sales – Insight Enterprises Pty Ltd Insight, a Qotient client in Australia, recently shared this story with its Executive and wider sales team.

By taking advantage of Qotient and the opportunity immediately, Damon was able to provide valuable information on the spot and create an opportunity that closed within 4 weeks.” Matthew Keir, Marketing Manager Insight.
