In this episode of The B2B Sales & Marketing Hotline, Emily and Maryanne break down what separates a “meh” sales playbook from a high-impact resource that actually drives results. Whether you're building one from scratch or trying to get more value from the one you have, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you get there.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

- What to include in a winning sales playbook — from buyer personas and sales process mapping to objection-handling plays, KPIs, battle cards, and tech stack guidance.

- How to get your sales team to actually use the playbook — and how to keep it updated so it doesn't collect dust.

- Why customization is key — and how tailoring your playbook by role, product line, or sales motion ensures it delivers value across your entire team.

Tune in and take the guesswork out of playbook building.

Plus, stick around for the listener Q&A segment where Emily and Maryanne tackle lead qualification and CRM adoption.
