What makes Journey more effective for sales than Notion, which is horizontal?

Brendan Weitz

Co-founder & CBO at Journey

In the sales process, there are a few key components which we've put together into templates. 

You're going to share your call recording or a highlight from your call recording, and you can pull that easily into a journey. You're going to share your case study video or slide deck from Google Drive or your computer. You're going to share your calendar to follow up.

We make it really easy for you to pull together exactly what you would typically use in a text email or in an attachment and pull that into Journey without leaving your email client.

I'm sure that Notion, at some point, will focus on this, but I think their market is more focused around getting one percent of Microsoft Office users or one percent of Google Suite users. I don't think our niche will be very interesting for them to focus on in the near-term, because they're going more for the internal workspace or wiki use case.

We haven't run into it yet where a sales team has been using Notion for anything that they do today. We're more plugged in with tools like a Salesloft or an Outreach.io or your HubSpot CRM, your Salesforce—that's where we've really seen the delineation. 

Once again, I think the design of Notion works really well for internal use cases or maybe a customer that you have a really good relationship with, but it's hard to make a Notion really personalized and really buttoned up for an enterprise sales process. That's what we've been told by our customers—and that’s why journeys can be a bit more flexible and customized and personalized in that sense.
