Every B2B founder we work with at £5M-£25M revenue runs into the same thing. The sales team is hitting numbers but the message is drifting. The AE in Boston is selling a slightly different version of the company to the AE in London. Three reps have three different decks. The battle card for the biggest competitor was written in 2024 and is now wrong on pricing.
The reason is simple. Nobody owns this work. Marketing is busy producing campaigns. Product is busy shipping. Sales leadership is busy on pipeline. So the SDR builds the cold email from memory, the AE rewrites the deck in Keynote the night before the pitch, and the closer hunts for the right case study while the prospect is on the line.
The fix is sales enablement done properly: a maintained library of materials, owned by one team, updated as the market changes, accessible the moment a rep needs them. It is the single most useful marketing work in B2B because it changes what gets said in every sales conversation.
