Marketers’ common pain points with new product launches often include gaining traction with the sales team, onboarding new sales reps, and one-to-one coaching of large field sales teams. Now, Modus is helping marketers eliminate their biggest sales challenges with the introduction of Microlearning: Just-in-Time learning that’s available on-demand for sales teams and easy to manage and deploy for marketing teams.

“Microleaning allows sales teams to learn as they go, wherever they are. Simply put, there’s no better way to onboard, train and coach sales reps so you can get your products in the field faster.”

Modus makes it easy for marketers to help sales reps articulate messaging that customers care about through bite-sized video training. Microlearning highlights include:

• Onboard sales reps faster – Microlearning allows sales reps to learn as they go. They’ll get in the field faster so they can use the information they’ve just learned. This increases retention and reduces the chances of overwhelming news sales reps.
• Give Kudos for Product Knowledge – Gamification features, including badges and certification, feeds sales reps’ competitive spirit and makes learning about new products fun. Marketing teams can also view lessons completed to better understand where knowledge gaps are occurring.
