Restrict Smart Tracker Email notifications to just my team

Hi All - I created a smart tracker for a specific item that my team deals with. I am now getting emails from Gong with notifications from the smart tracker that are from other sales teams within our company. I have looked around at the settings and I can’t seem to find a way to restrict the smart tracker to only identifying people from my team. Is that possible? Thanks, Joe

Counting outbound calls

I’m looking to get some feedback/best practices on how different companies count outbound calls for their sales reps. In the past we’ve counted any outbound dial that is 1 sec or more. I don’t feel this really captures true activity though as a rep might hang up as soon as a recording comes up. I’m wondering if 10 seconds or more would be a better measure. Open to hearing any thoughts on this. Thanks

Attend versus review calls

Here is a resource you can share with your frontline managers on how to leverage call recording to maximize your time as a sales leader and avoid the “be on every call mistake”.

Coaching

I think the most important thing with coaching is consistency. Gong will be a useful resource as I have data at hand to support the message I plan on on sharing. I really look forward to using this tool!

Feedbacks should reinforce best practises and behaviours, following constructive and useful data.

Gong for SDR's

How can SDR’s use the new Gong Engage? I have heard it is limited to AE’s due to need for opportunity permission? True?

How to set up a Renewals Board

Hello! I am engaging in the Gong Manager training and was intrigued by the chance to set up a renewals board. However, in following the instructions in the training, it doesn’t appear that it is possible. For example, in the “Show deals by date,” section the training suggests, “Closing this quarter.” But the only option I have is, “Sales Cycle Start Date.” Would love clarity on how to build this renewals board.

Presence

One of the best pieces of leadership advice I received has been to present your best self ALWAYS. How you show up to your team, fellow leaders, and company stakeholders matters. I highly recommend reading, Amy Cuddy’s Presence and sharing with your teams. There are several key takeaways regarding OWNING IT and Power Posing that are beneficial. Here is an excerpt: There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself. It is the only true guide you will ever have. And if you cannot hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls.” Are you going to pull your own strings OR are you going to let someone else pull them for you?

How do you hold your team accountable to take feedback seriously + keep the converstion on gong calls open. For example if you post questions for them in the comments section and they do not engage / reply
