Sales
Definition
Sales engagement refers to the category of tools (Outreach, Salesloft, etc.) and practices for executing outbound prospecting and follow-up at scale. Sales engagement platforms combine email sequencing, calling, task management, and analytics in one interface to maximize rep activity and response rates.
Key points
- Multi-channel cadences (email, call, LinkedIn, video)
- Task management optimized for high-velocity rep workflow
- Analytics: reply rates, meeting-set rates per cadence step
- Integration with CRM is table-stakes
Example
A rep using a sales engagement tool works a day in 'task list' mode — the tool surfaces 60 prioritized tasks (emails to send, calls to make, LinkedIn touches) based on cadence step-timing for their 300 active prospects.
