Economic development is more effective in the cloud

Communicate and collaborate better across employment, real estate, business development, and business advisory services. A cloud platform can transform your economic growth and development efforts and drastically improve the way you deliver services to local businesses—just like the State of Minnesota and Arlington County, Virginia have done.

Agencies like yours no longer have to buy, maintain, or upgrade costly hardware or software. Instead, you can use apps in the cloud. Salesforce.com offers full-featured applications—together with a complete customization and development platform—to replace expensive on-premises installations. Salesforce apps are easy to use. And they’re fast.

With cloud apps, you can do more with less:

Collaborate socially across the enterprise

Centralize communications and interactions with the business community and share that information across teams and departments. Break down the silos and stop multiple phone calls from the same agency. Achieve a complete view of your organization.

Automate and streamline operations

Replace tedious, paper-based processes with automated, streamlined workflows. Watch productivity soar as collaboration improves between teams, across departments, and beyond—to businesses, policymakers, and citizens.

Act according to facts

Use extensive outcomes reporting to track your agency’s performance and pinpoint areas for improvement. Because it’s easy to use, Salesforce CRM will be quickly adopted by all of your staff.
