Highspot helps sales teams organize and find content to share with prospects and customers.
It makes it easy for sellers to quickly find the content they need by using tools like Spots, SmartPages, browsing, searching, featured content, and recommendations.
This article will detail the Highspot homepage to introduce you to the features and functionality to get you started.
