The future is digital—and optimistic

According to survey respondents, these pandemic-induced adjustments are likely to become permanent. Close to nine in ten decision makers say that new commercial and go-to-market sales practices will be a fixture throughout 2021 and possibly beyond.

With the massive shift to digital resulting from COVID-19, video and live chat have emerged as predominant channels for interacting and closing sales with B2B customers, while in-person meetings and related sales activities have dropped precipitously. Digital self-serve also gained relevance during the pandemic, increasing its penetration as a sales model by 17 percent.

The corporate center: Driving the next normal

As the fight against COVID-19 continues across the globe, organizations are adapting their operations as they reimagine the next normal. Physical restrictions remain in many geographies, and while some companies have been able to return staff to offices, many have either closed again or significantly increased remote work. This is increasing pressures to improve remote working technologies and reduce spending on office spaces.
