Understanding the Design Module

The Design Module is a Sales Organization tool that allows you to intelligently and collaboratively align your go-to-market resources. Design your go-to-market strategy with our customizable tool, and execute with confidence through our key features:

Holistic Planning

A complete go-to-market plan for your company with the territory, team, roles, product and industry taxonomy designers allowing complete visibility. Each designer gives a different perspective to your business's sales strategy, allowing you to effectively create and maintain your entire go-to-market model in one place. Learn about each of them here:

• Territory Designer - A place for users to organize accounts into segments and territories, assign targets, define resource coverage, and track segment-focused company performance.
• Team Designer - A place for you to organize people into teams based on their company's unique go-to-market strategy, where they can also set and review targets and assign quota.
• Designing Roles - A place for you to define the various selling and support roles that make up your go-to-market strategy, and manage the capacity and productivity profiles associated with the various roles.
• Industry Taxonomy - A place for you to define a consistent Industry Taxonomy that is used across the Go To Market design.
• Product Designer - A place for you to organize products into different groups and set targets on those groups.

Key Planning Tasks

Each designer functions similarly and allows you to complete tasks such as:

• Assess your current capacity model and expected capacity needs using the Roles Designer.
• Create your Go-to-Market Design and define your Ideal Customer Profile.
