11th annual awards received more than 2,300 nominations in 2017

San Diego, CA – February 8, 2017 – Seismic, the leading enterprise-grade sales enablement platform, has been named a Finalist in the Collaboration Solution category in the 11th annual Stevie® Awards for Sales & Customer Service, and will ultimately be a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Stevie Award winner in the program. The honor is for Seismic WorkSpace, the collaboration and account-based marketing product feature within the Seismic platform.

“The biggest deals are won by a team, not by any individual salesperson, and we are honored that The Stevie Awards judges have recognized WorkSpace’s value in facilitating team collaboration when it comes to signing the most important accounts and closing the most lucrative opportunities,” said Doug Winter, Seismic co-founder and CEO.

With Seismic, marketing and sales teams have been able to leverage next-generation automation and data intelligence to organize, create, and distribute content for maximum efficiency, unlimited scalability, and flawless self-service customization by sales teams. WorkSpace simultaneously bolsters and complements these capabilities via robust collaboration features which include the ability to review and provide feedback on documents and presentations via annotated comments and content mark-up. Additionally, WorkSpace offers video annotation, allowing team members to provide frame-by-frame commentary, audio feedback, and presentation coaching.

WorkSpace was also recently named a WealthManagement.com Awards finalist in the Best Document Management Tool category.

More than 2,300 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were evaluated in this year’s Stevie® Awards for Sales & Customer Service, an increase of 10% over 2016.  Finalists were determined by the average scores of 77 professionals worldwide, acting as preliminary judges.  Entries were considered in 61 categories for customer service and 53 categories for sales and business development achievements, ranging from Senior Sales Executive of the Year to Sales Training or Business Development Executive of the Year to Sales Department of the Year; and categories to recognize new products and services and solution providers.

“This year’s first-round judges were treated to many inspiring stories of sales, customer service and business development success around the world,” said Michael Gallagher, president and founder of the Stevie Awards.  “The final judges will have a tough task to determine the Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie placements from among the Finalists.  We look forward to announcing the results at the awards gala in Las Vegas next month.”
