Over the past decade, Inbound Marketing has changed the way companies earn buyers’ trust and build their brands - through meaningful, helpful content. But with that change comes unprecedented access to information in a few quick keystrokes. Enter the age of the empowered buyer, one who no longer has to rely on a sales rep to research their challenges or learn more about how a company’s offering might fit their needs. Now, with more than 60 percent of purchasing decisions made in the absence of a sales rep, the role of the rep itself has been called into question.

Publisher's Summary
Use data, technology, and inbound selling to build a remarkable team and accelerate sales.
The Sales Acceleration Formula provides a scalable, predictable approach to growing revenue and building a winning sales team. Everyone wants to build the next $100 million business, and author Mark Roberge has actually done it using a unique methodology that he shares with his listeners. As an MIT alum with an engineering background, Roberge challenged the conventional methods of scaling sales utilizing the metrics-driven, process-oriented lens through which he was trained to see the world.
In this audiobook he reveals his formulas for success. Listeners will learn how to apply data, technology, and inbound selling to every aspect of accelerating sales, including hiring, training, managing, and generating demand.
As SVP of worldwide sales and services for software company HubSpot, Mark led hundreds of his employees to the acquisition and retention of the company's first 10,000 customers across more than 60 countries. This book outlines his approach and provides an action plan for others to replicate his success, including the following key elements:
- Hire the same successful salesperson every time - The Sales Hiring Formula
- Train every salesperson in the same manner - The Sales Training Formula
- Hold salespeople accountable to the same sales process - The Sales Management Formula
- Provide salespeople with the same quality and quantity of leads every month - The Demand Generation Formula

A Book on Assembling a Sales Force and Some System, a Lot of Pitching for Hubspot
This book makes an overwhelming number of mentions about Hubspot, and I'm certain the book is written to target readers who would also make good Hubspot clients. It definitely comes off as a little to pitchy.
That being said, there are some very useful bits here about assembling a sales team, creating a hiring system and structuring compensation to align with the companies sales goals.
It's a useful read for those in any industry where sales is going to be the main driver, which is most industries. I wouldn't call it a fundamental guide but it's worth the read if you're an early stage startup founder or run a mid-size or larger business and trying to reach scale.

Great thought leadership about how to expand our business through inbound lead generation and systematizing our sales process. I love the idea of taking the subjectivity out of the marketing and sales process and creating a scientific process behind building duplicatable results. It was a great book. Thanks Mark.

Thought provoking, perhaps a limited application
This is a very broad book, as it relates to the big picture sales organization. I think this is a strength, but it does limit its target audience. As a sales producer, there are some nice reminders and ideas, but it is not up to me to develop better and stronger leads... So good read, smart writer, limited audience perhaps.

There are some good ideas and strategies here, the problem is the delivery. This is a pretty boring listen...lots of technical talk and acronyms. The message gets lost a bit in trying to stay focused on what's being said and drifting into a boredom induced haze.

The worst performance of an audio book
Would you consider the audio edition of The Sales Acceleration Formula to be better than the print version?
No, the content is great, but the narrator is a horrible business book reader. He seems to have almost no understanding of business acronyms evidenced by his pronunciation of them.
What didn’t you like about Robert Feifar’s performance?
He seems to have almost no understanding of business acronyms evidenced by his pronunciation of them. It seems robotic.

Insight on sales processes using hubspot
Written to promote hubspot. Very long sales pitch, with ultimate conclusion being: "you should use hubspot".
If your goal is to make a decision between Hubspot or sales force, it is a good way to understand how hubspot works and the pains it was solving from the beginning, hence showing its strengths in the sales process.
If you have already decided to choose hubspot, then it is a great way to see how you can use it.
If you don't intent to use hubspot, the content will seem less valuable for more than 50% of the book, as some insight can not be used,/implemented without subscribing to Hubspot.

recommend if you are in b2b saas. the lessons are good and no matter what size/industry, you will be able to implement some of the concepts immediately. 4/5 stars because i wouldve liked a little more context for each of the concepts, e.g. how many people were in the team/dept/company for each of these concepts. info good but a little general.
