Improving sales productivity with SuperOffice

As a sales person, you’re challenged every single day to sell more and to sell faster. And when you’re juggling a bunch of activities at any given moment, it’s hard to find the time to really focus on the business of selling.

Selling is hard, but what if there was a new way of doing business?

For me selling more and faster means to be quite picky about which sales opportunities I spend my time on. And when I’m juggling a bunch things at one time, I find that I can end up focusing on all the wrong things which don’t lead to a sale.

The SuperOffice for Sales solution helped me to figure out which opportunities were a “go” and which were a “no-go”.

I now have full visibility into my sales pipeline and this helps me to prioritize whom to call first when following-up on leads. All I need to do is to check my opportunities, get my priorities in order and then I am up and running.

I work under a lot of pressure to reach my sales targets and a well prepared sales proposal is key to helping me reach my goal. It used to take several days to create a good sales proposal. This involved going through a lot of Excel spreadsheets, product catalogues, pricing databases and chasing down my “always busy” sales manager to get approvals. It’s not the smartest way to work.

With SuperOffice, I can pick products and prices, add discounts and get automated updates on all the amounts without leaving my CRM and even without leaving my desk.

I don’t have to spend time calculating and checking the numbers, as this is automatically done for me. And that I like.

Have you ever wondered if you were focusing on the right activities at the right time in order to win a deal? Well I did. And when I’m working this hard to close a deal, I don’t’ have time for guesswork. I need to know that what I’m doing works.

The Sales Guide in the SuperOffice Sales solution has been a godsend. The Sales guide mirrors the company’s best practice sales process. When I’m working on a sale, all I need to do is to follow the outlined steps and make sure that I complete all the actions and deliverables that are associated with each step. And when I do this, I know that it’s good-bye to guesswork.

Sales is a numbers game. And I know that if I don’t have a good handle on the numbers then I’m going to be in a lot a trouble at the end of the quarter. This is why sales forecasting is such an important part of my job.

I remember the days when I really struggled with getting an accurate forecasting from my sales people. I’m glad that’s over. A good forecast tells me how my team is doing against the targets as well as where I need to push to help them to reach their targets.

The SuperOffice Sales solution gives me a quick picture of the pipeline at any one time. I always know how much my sales team is selling.
