Question: True or false? You should invest in keeping your technological core in place long-term, but you can experiment with your edge technologies and change them easily.
- True — Although your core system can be changed, changing it frequently is complicated and can lead to confusion. But the edges are a great place to experiment and try new things.
- True — It’s impossible to change your technological core, but changing your edges is painless and should be done frequently.
- False — You should experiment with all of your systems on an ongoing basis.
- False — You should invest in keeping both your core and edges in place long-term.
Explanation
The core system (e.g., CRM) should remain stable because frequent changes can disrupt workflows and cause confusion. Edge technologies like email templates or supplementary tools are flexible and can be experimented with to improve processes or engagement. This separation allows innovation while maintaining reliability in foundational systems. Core stability and edge flexibility optimize sales enablement effectiveness.
Why the other options are incorrect
B) Core systems can be changed, but doing so frequently is not practical or advisable.
C) Experimenting with all systems risks operational confusion and inefficiency.
D) Fixing both core and edge systems long-term limits the ability to innovate and optimize processes.
