Their original web address now redirects to their new .club URL, NewYorkSailing.Club. “.club was part rebranding and part SEO,” he says, encouraging any club-oriented business to opt for the TLD." New York Sailing Club "We have about 50 domains. Price matters to us, and name.com consistently has reasonable prices, in transfers, buying new domains and renewals." Sue Davis

[H1] Behind the Name: Mastering Sales Enablement with Shannon Patton
Author: Ben Howard7 min. read
Welcome to Behind the Name.

Here at name.com, we are endlessly inspired by the bold visionaries who take the leap from traditional 9-5 careers to bet on themselves and start their own businesses. Our dedication to entrepreneurs drives us to provide the essential tools you need to get online, own your digital identity, and build a lasting business.

Today, we have the privilege of speaking to Shannon Patton, an expert sales enablement specialist who trains companies on bettering their sales teams.

This spotlight also serves as a powerful reminder of why having a dedicated website is so crucial. In an era full of algorithmic changes, relying strictly on social media is a risk. We recommend building your brand on a .fyi domain. The .fyi destination empowers you to cut through the noise and AI slop of the internet, gives you a dedicated space to deliver trusted thought leadership, and most importantly, it creates a centralized touchpoint that you control, not the constantly changing hands of the algorithm. You own the website, you own the message.

Let’s dive into our Q&A with Shannon to hear her story, discover her sales enablement starter kit, and learn why she uses a .fyi domain to power her personal brand.

[H2] Q: You’ve described your superpower as connecting people together toward one goal. If you had to title the current chapter of your career, what would it be?

“If I were to give my career at this time a title, it would be Prioritization with Purpose”.

[H2] Q: You’ve been open about being put on a Performance Improvement Plan early in your career. How does that experience inform the empathy you have for the reps you enable today?

“Being on a performance plan as a seller… gives me so much empathy for the folks that I support. Every time I think about building a program… the first thing I think about is how is this gonna impact the field?. If I launch a program and it’s not successful, the first place that I often look is not at the reps… It’s making sure that I’m looking at the work that I’m doing and making sure that it’s meeting the needs of the people that I support”.

[H2] Q: What is the one messy problem in the sales enablement industry right now that you feel the most driven to solve?

“I think the messiest problem in the sales industry today is that when everything is a priority, nothing is a priority. It’s my responsibility to be the arbiter of the field’s time. The truth is, more isn’t always better, and it’s my responsibility to prioritize what is actually gonna help us move the needle so that teams can hit their numbers faster”.

[H2] Q: In a world obsessed with hard data, how do you prove the ROI of deeply caring to a room full of executives?

“Making sure that I truly understand what our organization’s outcomes are, but more importantly, my responsibility is also to understand what intrinsically motivates our sellers and our leaders. Having those strong cross-functional partnerships is truly how I drive success in my role… Part of that work is being willing to stand up for what I think is best for the field. It’s my responsibility to help bridge that gap and make sure that everybody is winning together”.

[H2] Q: You’ve taught over a hundred global leaders the critical difference between leadership and coaching. What is the very first behavioral change a manager should make tomorrow morning to become a coach?

“The first behavior that I would give up tomorrow morning is the need to do everything for my employee. I would say give up control. Leaders are typically telling you what to do, so they’re helping hold you accountable… but a coach is helping show you how to do something and then letting you practice that in real time. It’s often really easy as a leader to do those things yourself because it gets done faster… but that’s not a coaching moment for your team, and your team doesn’t learn.”

[H2] Q: You talk about bridging the gap between how buyers purchase and how sellers sell. What is the most common reason that bridge collapses in most organizations?

“The most common reason that, that bridge collapses is due to a lack of knowledge. You really need to intimately understand [the buyer’s] industry, what they care about, and their biggest business problems. If you don’t understand that as a seller, you just default to what you know, which typically is the company that you’re at, the product that you sell, and the conversation turns into feature and function over value”.

[H2] Q: When you’re brought into a program for leadership support, what are the red flags you look for that signal an enablement program is just noise rather than a performance driver?

“I wanna understand: what is the business problem that we’re solving? What data do we have that backs up that this problem actually exists?. If we do this really well, what would we expect to see differently tomorrow… and if you and I come back together in three months, how are we gonna know that we did a good job?. If people can’t answer those questions for me… typically my assumption is either it’s not right for right now or it’s not right for enablement”.

[H2] Q: If you were building a Sales Enablement Starter Kit from scratch today, what are the three non-negotiable pillars that must be included?

“What does enablement do and what does enablement not do? So very clearly defining your swim lanes so you don’t have work that’s happening in silos or duplicative work”

“Making sure that you have really clear metrics for success. Taking salespeople away from doing their job costs the company money… Look to influence things like reducing ramp time, helping support pipe generation, advancing skills so deals can close faster”

“A very clearly defined intake process for how you receive requests from your cross-functional partners… What questions are you gonna ask so you can get everything that you need to build a successful program?”

[H2] Q: Why is it no longer enough for a sales professional to just be good at their job behind the scenes?

“The world is changing so fast today, and the way that people consume information… is so vastly different from what it was even 10 years ago. It’s really important when you’re thinking about building a brand and growing and developing yourself to really push yourself beyond the boundaries of what your traditional experience might have looked like”.

[H2] Q: How do you make sure your expertise stands out in the crowded space of the internet, and why did you choose a .fyi domain for your brand?

“There is so much AI slop out there today, and it is so important to have a space that stands out, that’s a single source of truth that people can trust. I already have a lot of content that I share with my audience on a lot of different social platforms, but I wanted to have a trusted space that I can control… that I can diversify my exposure to the audiences that I’m engaging with”.

[H2] Q: When a peer visits a page with your name on it, what is the one “aha moment” you want them to leave with?

“Enablement is so much more than training. Training is sitting in a room, looking at a PowerPoint slide for an hour. And enablement is fundamentally changing somebody’s behavior about the way that they work in order to excel their performance”.

[H2] Q: What’s the next repeatable moment you’re looking to build for the industry?

“Meeting learners where they’re at. I think that the way that folks are going to start learning today is through mediums like short-form media content. So think about TikTok, think about an Instagram reel… that is truly how much brain capacity some of the field has in their day-to-day”.
