Short answer

Sales enablement is the practice of equipping sales teams with the content, training, tools and insights they need to engage buyers and close deals more effectively. It often sits between marketing and sales, covering playbooks, battle cards, onboarding and coaching, and is judged by its effect on ramp time, win rates and deal size.
