You would not implement an unproven strategy based on gut feeling alone, and B2B sales management should be no different. Good strategies are based on research, and sales management statistics become useful when they help you hit your targets, inspect the changing state of B2B sales, and decide which sales processes need stronger ownership.

Facts and figures are not much use unless you act on them, so this post pairs the biggest sales management problems with practical processes you can use in your own organization. Bookmark this list the next time you are improving your B2B sales management strategy, sales operations, onboarding, automation, or ongoing training.

SaaS, the great equalizer.

Thanks to SaaS (software-as-a-service) countless businesses of all sizes have moved to cloud-based apps to solve everyday problems in ways only available before to big companies willing to shell out thousands for software licenses.

Imagine if you had an invisible robot running around the internet doing all kinds of tasks for you.

That is still the promise of a Slack bot: simplify everyday tasks by cutting down on repetitive work, answering common questions, routing updates, reminding people about deadlines, and connecting Slack to the tools where work actually happens. If you want to know how to use Slackbot, start with reminders, support answers, custom responses, and private notes. Then use Workflow Builder and the Slack Marketplace when the job needs a dedicated app or repeatable workflow.

Another Slack review?

When I started using Slack to collaborate with the team at Process Street, I could not tell you why it was so popular. I opened it, saw channels and messages, and thought: this is just chat. It took integrations to change my mind.

Slack now serves over 200,000 paying organizations and processes billions of messages each week. After Salesforce acquired the company for $27.7 billion in 2021, it became the default communication hub for teams that run serious operations. Its staying power is not hype. A well-known product-market fit study by Hiten Shah found that 51% of users would be “very disappointed” if Slack disappeared, the exact threshold that signals a product people genuinely need.

Communicating with your team can be a pain in the ass. Keeping track of who said what and when can become a rabbit hole of wasted time and energy, especially if you work remotely with a team and need everyone to develop efficient habits around communication.

Email is still the most popular form of communication between teams, but it is not always the best option. The best email alternatives for team communication are chat and video tools, mobile messaging for quick updates, and project or workflow management tools for decisions, tasks, files, approvals, and proof.

Strong employee onboarding does more than welcome a new hire. It gives them the access, context, manager support, and operating rhythm they need to become productive without guessing what comes next.

That matters because onboarding is directly tied to employee retention and productivity.

I am a Windows user, and if you are reading this, you probably are too. Windows still powers well over a billion monthly active devices, and for most of us the operating system is something we use every time we are on the computer, probably every day. Windows 10 reached the end of its official support on October 14, 2025, but it still runs on a huge share of those machines, and plenty of power users are staying put on hardware that cannot make the jump to Windows 11.

That is why we at Process Street pieced together this big list of Windows 10 tips and tricks you may not know, the kind that improve performance, increase productivity, and help you make the most of your workflow and your workspace. Master a handful of these and you will get more out of the machine you already own, and once you see them in action, you should too.
