How to Make Marketing Materials Sales Actually Wants to Use

Sales isn't using your decks. Find out why and co-create assets that actually help close deals.

About this session

Marketing teams often spend weeks on pitch decks that sales reps never open, leading to inconsistent messaging and wasted effort. This session brings both groups together to identify exactly where current assets fail and what specific information prospects actually ask for during a deal. You will move from guessing what Sales needs to co-designing a toolkit that directly supports the closing process.

Why it works

This structure shifts Sales from passive critics to active co-authors, ensuring they have a personal stake in using the final materials. By isolating specific friction points in the sales cycle before drafting any content, the team avoids wasting time on aesthetic updates that do not solve functional gaps. The process replaces marketing assumptions with first-hand feedback from the field, making the resulting assets immediately practical for discovery calls and demos.
