Gong CI & Forecasting Implementation
Challenge
A global cybersecurity provider lacked centralized insight into sales performance. Forecasts were based on limited Salesforce notes, with no consistent call data or behavioral indicators. Enablement had no tools for onboarding or coaching. Sales leadership was flying blind, and cross-functional visibility was almost nonexistent. Despite strong internal advocacy, Gong was viewed with skepticism. Security and IT teams were resistant, Salesforce admins had concerns, and initial rollout was scoped as a small regional trial, not an enterprise deployment.

Project Result

Project Outcomes
OBF led the project across every layer of implementation, navigating technical, political, and organizational resistance. We delivered a live Gong Forecast and Conversation Intelligence environment fully aligned to security requirements and integrated with Salesforce.

Productivity
Reps now operate with reduced admin work. Gong drives automated capture of follow-up, deal data, and context. Collaboration and visibility have increased across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions.

Predictability
Sales leaders receive weekly forecast snapshots and executive-level summaries tracking deal progress, account risk, and key signals across top-line pipeline. Gong is now a core reporting input for cross-functional leadership.

Growth
New onboarding programs are centered on Gong call libraries, territory planning, and recorded roleplays. Poor-fit hires are identified faster. Coaching and performance visibility are built into day-one workflows.
