Newest Version of Popular “MindTickle for Sales” Platform Helps Growing Sales Teams Scale and Sell Faster than Ever

Mountain View, CA, February 04, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Today, MindTickle announced the newest version of its Sales Readiness solution, MindTickle for Sales, designed to help growing sales teams and startups scale and sell lightening-fast. It's the secret behind some of today’s hottest, high-growth companies from the Billion Dollar Club like Rocket Fuel, Avalara, Couchbase and Ola Cabs – who are finding MindTickle not only engaging, but also easy to use and manage.

MindTickle has already established itself as one of the most popular new corporate training solutions with big brands like eBay, SAP, Yahoo!, HCL and Vodafone for social & gamified learning and new hire onboarding. In October 2014, MindTickle announced $1.8 million in funding from Accel Partners and Moneta Ventures to expand its award-winning training software into Sales Readiness. Unveiled at Dreamforce '14, MindTickle for Sales is the first end-to-end sales readiness solution that combines powerful gamification, social learning and analytics tools to help sales reps perform at the top of their game.

“The cloud-based SaaS model has shrunk the product lifecycle, with new features and updates coming every few weeks instead of every few months,” said Krishna Depura, Co-founder & CEO of MindTickle. “As a result, the way sales teams sell is undergoing a radical transformation. Sales needs a way to stay informed on product capabilities, features and positioning as they evolve. MindTickle for Sales ensures high-growth companies can keep new hires and more seasoned team members in the loop 24x7, by transforming all the essential tools like case studies, video tutorials and the latest marketing collateral into a fun and engaging learning experience.”

MindTickle puts the power of sales readiness into the hands of the sales teams themselves. Companies can share resources like pitches, presentation decks and product updates in real-time. That means companies can keep their sales reps up-to-date on the latest product features, objection handling and customer success stories. Plus, MindTickle for Sales employs unique social tools and gamification to tap in to sales teams’ inner competitiveness and dramatically improve usage rates. As a result, MindTickle has consistently demonstrated adoption rates of more than 90 percent.

The MindTickle platform is tightly coupled with an analytics engine that offers actionable insights about team members and how ready they are to close deals – from a “Readiness Index” of the company to a drill-down analysis of each rep’s ability to respond to prospects and customers. Once they’re on the platform, managers can make informed, timely actions to ensure sales reps aren’t leaving opportunities on the table.

The new version of MindTickle for Sales introduces in-demand new functionality, including:

· Brand New UI with a sleek, Apple-like feel
· Intelligent Search offers analytics-based recommendations on related materials
· New Series tool allows courses to be organized in a single pack
· Quick Updates feature to create short courses in 3 clicks
· Favorites button to save and find files on the fly

Benefits:

· Just-in-time content discovery - Smart search for enabling sales reps to find the latest and most relevant content anytime anywhere
· Insights for better decision making - Identify readiness gaps of each individual sales rep, and customize their coaching and goals to ensure that you are tweaking the right levers for better sales performance
