There used to be this grand curiosity around the term “sales gamification.” Take last year’s Dreamforce. Gamification-related sessions, panels and product announcements made for some of the most exciting happenings. It seemed everyone wanted an introduction to the idea of gamifying the workplace.
A year later, things have changed. Interest no longer surrounds the idea of understanding sales gamification as a concept; people want concrete evidence on what it can do. And lucky for those heading to the Moscone Center next month, Dreamforce 2013 will offer that.
We’re excited to say that we’ll be part of that initiative. In fact, our team members and/or our clients will speak on gamification in the following sessions…

Gamification – Open Forum with Thought Leaders and Experts
Of course, attendees can always stop by booth N2107 or book time in our Moscone meeting room to keep the conversation going outside of these sessions, too.
As for what will happen with sales gamification once curiosities on its capabilities find satisfaction, we think it will continue on the same path we see today: the one that starts at commonplace concept and ends at commonplace practice. And so, we expect to be writing a similar post one year from now. But there will be a difference: That post will list sessions that focus more on best practices, meant for an even wider audience of people already relying on gamification — because they’ll really know what it can do.
