Salesforce Sales Cloud provides Customer Relationship Management (CRM) services via the cloud. The program includes tools for managing contacts, automating sales forces, forecasting sales, and improving productivity.
Your sales team’s performance is tracked in real time with Sales Cloud. A pipeline inspection tool allows you to track changes easily, so you can identify deals that will have an impact on sales forecasts quickly. As a result, you can make adjustments quickly to achieve and exceed your goals by analyzing the data for the entire business.
To get a complete picture, your sales team needs to track everything in the Sales Cloud. Some of our most successful customers have adopted a mantra:
“If it’s not in the Sales Cloud, it doesn’t exist.”
In Salesforce, every call, every customer interaction, and every deal closed is tracked, if not, no credit is given.
