Considering buying an internal wiki? You’re not alone. Founders are constantly searching (and often struggling) to find the most suitable wiki for their company’s internal documentation. And, honestly, I completely understand why most leaders think an internal wiki would benefit their organization. Afterall, wikis are supposed to be a fairly quick way to collaborate and share company information in a centralized location. Heck, they’ve even been around for years, so they’ve got to be reliable by now! It only makes sense that we should all be searching for the most badass wiki for our teams, right? Well, unfortunately, it’s not as black and white as it may seem.

Sales enablement is such a cross-functional role that when evaluating sales enablement solutions there are often many stakeholders that want to get involved. One key stakeholder is the product marketing team, who wants to ensure the content they create (case studies, white papers, etc) is being used by the sales team. As a result, a way to measure the effectiveness of the content you send to prospects is often high on the list of requirements for your sales enablement solution. A whole category of solutions under the sales asset management umbrella are built to exclusively serve this purpose.

Today we are excited to announce our latest feature, Content Performance!  As Guru continues to work with Sales teams of all sizes, we often hear the challenges their sales and marketing teams face around delivering and measuring content effectiveness with their customers.  With the rise of Account Based Marketing, the partnership between sales and marketing is as critical as it ever has been.  Organizations are getting smarter about understanding their customers, and developing content that speaks directly to the specific audiences across those customers.  This content will vary by industry, by company size, by persona, by product, etc. creating a greater complexity for a salesperson to know which content to use, and when to use it.  And even if they know what they want to send, quickly finding it and ensuring its accuracy remains a challenge.

Not a week goes by where I don’t recommend Support Driven to a support professional. With a passionate, diverse, and engaged Slack community of over 1,900 industry thought leaders and experts, there’s an endless amount of resources to make you or your company better at support. When you throw a few hundred of those individuals together in-person, you can’t help but walk away enlightened.

In January, we were invited to present at a new sales ops online video series that launched with 30 video presentations from leading SaaS companies.

For the video series each presenter was asked to go into exactly how they made use of products in their technology stack today.

Perhaps the best way for us to learn about if a product is right for us is to see how our peers gets value.

This is an easy check against vendor BS that we’re all overloaded with these days. To support this type of peer learning we had our very own head of Product Marketing, Steve Mayernick present how Guru makes use of Guru, as well as other products like Outreach and Slack.

On top of Guru’s presentation both Greenhouse and Dell Boomi came through with how their sales stacks look like in the wild, which both include Guru.

Archiving Cards allows you remove content that is no longer relevant, but unlike deleting, if the information is needed again you can find the Cards and unarchive them. 

What is Q&A

Can't find the answer you need? Here's how you can easily ask questions in the same Guru interface you search/browse for your knowledge.

How do you empower your support agents to find the knowledge they need to efficiently solve customer issues? How do you create a culture that puts knowledge sharing and collaboration at the forefront to benefit the entire team? These questions should be top of mind for support leaders, and are the key questions the Knowledge Centered Support (KCS) methodology addresses.
