The End of Sales Training as We Know It: What Paperflite’s heysales Means for Revenue Enablement in 2025

By Richard Norwood, PMP – Founder, Alabrida Revenue Architects LLC

The recent launch of heysales by Paperflite isn’t just another blip in the crowded sales tech space—it’s a wake-up call to every business leader still relying on static sales playbooks, outdated scripts, or post-call feedback loops.

“heysales is not just another sales coaching tool; it is designed to replace outdated, one-size-fits-all training models with real-time coaching.”

As someone who has worked extensively with solopreneurs, sales teams, and mid-market leadership, I know firsthand that the revenue bottleneck isn’t usually the product—it’s the process.

Let’s break down why heysales matters—and how businesses can take this momentum and build a revenue enablement engine that performs in real time.


Sales Has Evolved. Coaching Hasn’t. Until Now.

While AI tools have reshaped marketing, customer support, and even content creation, sales coaching remained stagnant—until now.

heysales brings a fresh, tactical approach that aligns directly with the work I do at Alabrida Revenue Architects:

✅ Real-Time Coaching, Not Rear-View Feedback

The best coaching happens during the moment of truth—not days later. With heysales, sales reps get expert-guided feedback live during conversations, empowering them to pivot, respond, and close more effectively.

This mirrors the approach we use in my Conversion Blueprint, where automation is embedded in the customer journey to capture intent as it happens—not after it’s lost.

✅ Rep-Generated Learning = Engagement-Driven Results

By incorporating podcasts, gamified learning, and real-world simulations, heysales moves away from one-size-fits-all training and toward adaptive performance development.

This is critical for sales teams juggling multiple tools and shifting buyer behavior. As a certified project manager and strategist, I help businesses implement frameworks that support this kind of flexible, self-directed upskilling.


Revenue Enablement Isn’t a Department—It’s a Discipline

Most companies treat sales enablement as a checklist. But revenue enablement is about aligning:

  • Customer journey design
  • Sales coaching & execution
  • CRM integration
  • Marketing automation
  • Analytics feedback loops

That’s exactly what Paperflite is modeling with their SEEK content engine and now, the launch of heysales.

“We are not just enabling teams to close more deals; we are redefining how sales coaching drives long-term success.”

— Yega Kumarappan, Co-Founder of Paperflite

The key takeaway here isn’t to copy Paperflite’s tech stack—it’s to build your own scalable enablement engine. That’s what I help clients do—no matter the tools.
