Arm your sales people with the information they need to smash their quotas Empower your salesforce with interactive dashboards that deliver the information they need DecisionPoint ™ The Challenge It’s difficult for sales people to be successful when they don’t have the facts they need at their fingertips If your sales team spend endless hours on the road visiting customers and potential clients, do they feel disconnected from head office and often find themselves lacking information to make critical decisions? If so, are they frustrated that a lack of up-to-date information about lead times, stock levels and customer order histories makes them look unprepared and creates a negative image in front of the customer? Is this costing you sales and harming your business? If your sales people don’t have access to the information they need it’s hard for them to perform at the level your organization needs and expects from them. Unpredictable networks make traditional online dashboards and reports unreliable As your sales team is remote, they can be a difficult community to serve. On the road they sometimes have limited network connectivity, which results in frustratingly slow response times when they use traditional dashboards and reports. This leads to a lack of trust and low utilization rates, and ultimately means sales people “wing it”, basing decisions on gut instinct instead of facts. DecisionPoint ™ Static reports are cumbersome and soon out of date Other times your sales team may find themselves working in an environment where there is no network at all. In those cases, all they have is usually a PDF or even a paper document to fall back on, which is cumbersome, not always up to date and can be difficult to navigate in front of a customer. Laptop-based information takes too long to access Your sales people are part of the mobile workforce and they tend to live on their mobile phones and tablets. They don’t want to have to get a laptop out and boot it up to check on their performance, or to show a customer why they should buy your product. This process is just too slow and doesn’t fit the way today’s sales teams work. The Solution Empower your remote sales force with interactive dashboards that deliver the information they need, when they need it Keep everyone up-to-date with the latest numbers To ensure sales people, both remote and in the office, always have their finger on the pulse of your business you can schedule dashboards to be refreshed periodically throughout the day (e.g. every minute, every 10 minutes, every hour, etc.), making sure people are always working with the most up-to-date information. C reate dashboards fit for a mobile salesforce To respond to rapidly changing business demands you need to create stunning interactive dashboards fast and without coding, which can be accessed on mobile devices and the desktop. These dashboards present your sales team with a simple interface that they can just pick up and use without needing any training, which is important when you’re relaying information to a large workforce. P rovide constant access to information, even when offline Your users expect to be able to use their dashboards when they’re sat with a customer, on the plane, in the back of a taxi or on the metro. Most of these places have limited or no Internet access so sales people need offline access to their dashboards without loss of functionality. Ensure answers to follow-up questions are close at hand When a sales person spots a dormant customer or finds that average spend per customer is going down, she’ll want to dive into more detail to understand where the problem is coming from. The dashboards you create enable sales people to get rapid answers to their second- and third-level questions so they can feel confident they are making the right decisions for the business, without having to request more information from head office.
