On the Platform


Mar 13, 2019

Platform companies must reinvent how they sell to SMBs. That means replacing sales funnel approaches with continuous, human+ support. Listen as Jacqueline Morgan, Principal Director of Platform Adoption, Accenture Software & Platform and Growth Principal, and Danielle Moffat, Offering Lead, Growth Performance Services, explore how platform companies need to reinvent how they engage with SMBs – from sale to service and beyond.

The key to success in this vital market? A new honeycomb approach, multi-layered, with continuous engagement across every channel – all built on new roles with human+ capabilities. And none of this stops when a sale is made. SMBs buy more than once and they’ll reward platform companies that support them as they grow.
