2024 has been a big year for Atrium, marking our final transition from a data-driven sales management platform to a fully automated sales performance management solution.
We’ve expanded what sales management can achieve by introducing three core functionalities that work together to drive accountability and coaching for your sales team:
-
Manager Co-Pilot: Guides managers on where to focus on coaching and accountability, ensuring team members get the support they need when they need it.
-
Automated Goal Tracking: Keeps teams and reps on track with clear goals and timely alerting, so there’s no mystery around expectations and how reps and teams are trending.
- Direct-to-Rep Sales Coach: Supports reps with targeted, actionable insights to elevate performance without the intervention of the human manager.
Our CEO, Jason Heidema, recently created this 5-minute Atirum pitch and product tour to showcase these features at a high level.
Below is a look at the product updates from 2024 you should know about.
