About The Customer
ComplyAdvantage is a Regulation Technology (RegTech) organization founded in 2014 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom. The company, which has a size of 201-500 employees, provides anti-money laundering technology. It uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing to help regulated organizations manage risk obligations and counteract financial crime. The company is growing rapidly and has a diverse team that includes sales, customer success, account management, and product teams. The company values efficiency and effectiveness in its revenue-related departments and is always looking for ways to improve its processes and tools.
The Challenge
ComplyAdvantage, a Regulation Technology (RegTech) organization that provides anti-money laundering technology, was facing a challenge in efficiently ramping up new hires as the company scaled rapidly. The Head of Revenue Operations (RevOps), Jonny, was tasked with reviewing the technology stack to ensure it was as streamlined as possible while maintaining the necessary components for the RevOps team to effectively reach their goals. With over 60 sales enablement tools being used by the team, this was a significant task. The team was already using Gong, a Revenue Intelligence solution, but not to its full capacity. The tool was primarily used for call recording, with no coaching or trackers in place.
The Solution
To address the challenge, Jonny, with the help of Gong’s Manager of Commercial Customer Success, embarked on a 'Gong journey'. They put together an engagement plan and rolled out Gong methodically across the organization, starting with Sales, then moving to Customer Success, and finally Product. This approach helped better align the entire organization. Gong was used to capture activity data from every touchpoint for more accurate forecasting. The tool was also used to record calls, providing a 'taste of reality' for the team and freeing them to be more present in their customer interactions. Gong was also used as a coaching platform, capturing the best and most challenging calls and using them as coaching opportunities. The team also used Gong to track new initiatives, specifically the MEDDICC sales methodology for prospect calls.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of Gong has had significant operational benefits for ComplyAdvantage. The tool has become an integral part of how work gets done at the company, with every new employee now receiving a Gong license. The company has seen a 20% increase in Gong usage across the company, with the tool now being used by direct, indirect, Pre-Sales, Customer Success, Account Management, and Product teams. The call recordings provided by Gong have given the team a 'taste of reality', freeing them to be more present in their customer interactions. The tool has also been instrumental in coaching, with the best and most challenging calls being used as coaching opportunities. Furthermore, Gong has been used to track new initiatives, specifically the MEDDICC sales methodology for prospect calls, leading to a significant increase in the use of qualification-specific wording.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Decreased new rep ramp time by 50%
  • Increased Gong adoption by 20% across the company
  • Launched a new initiative (MEDDICCo sales methodology) and saw reps’ use of qualification-specific wording jump from 2% to 17%
