November Meetup on 11/15: Finding budget for enablement tools

Join us for the third Chicago Sales Operations and Sales Enablement meetup! We'll have free food, beer, wine, and soft drinks -- get to know some of your peers in this growing space and learn a few things along the way. We'll have a round of raffle prizes and giveaways, too! Please make sure to RSVP so we can get a headcount for food and drinks.

In sales ops, it can be a real struggle to convince the business to pay a vendor for a needed tool in the face of budget constraints and internal development options. Mike Hayes and Parag Patel from Clari, a leading pipeline management and forecasting platform, are joining us this month to talk about their experience and walk us through best practices in getting the business on board with third party tools that ultimately add to the bottom line. They'll be joined by Maggie Palumbo, who was Director of Sales Operations & Enablement at CareerBuilder for 10 years and is now VP of Sales and Operations at project44.
