It means configuring the perfect blend of products and services to address the customer\u2019s pain point, determining the price that will get them to say \u201cyes,\u201d and delivering the quote in a timely manner.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on what\u2019s being sold, however, figuring out those details could take considerable legwork and back-and-forth with internal teams. A simple sales management software may not do the trick. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/\">Customer relationship management (CRM) <\/a>technology automates those headaches away, but as sales teams get started they should think about how they want to set up the system to maximize its impact.<\/p>\n<p>CRM has been around for a long time but the advent of cloud-based versions means it\u2019s much easier to deploy and can be made much more widely available on devices such as smartphones.<\/p>\n<p>The questions that follow will help determine your first steps to begin automating one of the most critical points in the sales process.<\/p>\n<h3>How Different Are Your Customers, Really?<\/h3>\n<p>By all means treat every sale as a unique, almost bespoke experience, but make sure the back end of your close process looks at whatever similarities there are across accounts. This begins by leveraging the data within CRM such as Salesforce\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/sales-cloud\/overview\/\">Sales Cloud<\/a>, but it also means thinking about how you will handle special pricing requests, or SPRs.<\/p>\n<p>Some customers may want to know they\u2019re entitled to special pricing based on the repeat business they\u2019ve given, for instance or whether they operate in areas like the non-profit sector. Other SPRs may be much more granular. Traditionally reps have had to submit SPRs for approval, but waiting for that go-ahead can give customers enough time to change their minds.<\/p>\n<p>In your next sales team meeting, conduct a review of all SPRs that have come in over the last quarter. Look for any commonalities. How could understanding the catalysts for these SPRs let you preemptively build in approvals? This not only gets you closer to finalizing the sale. It can also give you an idea of where you might want to rethink your base pricing for products and services that tend to generate SPRs for each customer.<\/p>\n<h3>How Might CRM Affect Other Parts Of The Organization?<\/h3>\n<p>Imagine this scenario: A sales rep takes the time and effort to put together a custom quote that reflects exactly what a particular customer wants. Then, a week after the sale, the same customer receives an e-mail describing an offer for the exact same product or service.<\/p>\n<p>Using a CRM solution should not only accelerate the buying cycle, it should also help the marketing team use data more effectively via tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/pardot\/overview\/\">Pardot<\/a> to nurture demand for cross-sell and upsell opportunities later on. The same goes for customer service teams. If what\u2019s been sold is different than what has routinely been purchased by other clients, the troubleshooting issues may be different, too. It also works the other way around: data from customer service teams that use tools such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/service-cloud\/overview\/\">Service Cloud<\/a> could help the sales team get a sense of what additional products and services would provide customers an enhanced overall experience.<\/p>\n<h3>How Can You Top What Your Competitors Are Offering?<\/h3>\n<p>The first quote might go over fine with the customer \u2014 until they approach another company and use it as leverage to get a potentially better price. The sales automation process will help organizations tackle what\u2019s often the necessary step of coming up with a second quote. This doesn\u2019t need to be a race to the bottom in terms of pricing, though. It might be looking across data from tools like Sales Cloud and Service Cloud, along with sales tracking to see whether add-on products, additional support offers or other incentives would make your organization seem like the better long-term partner.<\/p>\n<h3>When Is The Money Most Likely To Come In?<\/h3>\n<p>Reps always want the sale, but their organizations need the actual revenue. Some customers are better about this than others. The more you know your accounts, the more you should think about what kind of milestones need to be built into the billing process to get money through the door. This may involve everything from gentle reminders to more blunt tactics. It might also be a case of invoicing properly. In some situations, for example, a particular product and service configuration needs to be split up into invoices going to different departments in the same organization. The better these details are mapped out, the more likely you\u2019ll meet overall business targets.<\/p>\n<h3>What Kind Of Goals Do We Want To Set For The Sales Team?<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking of targets, the sales automation processes can also influence the way managers improve the team\u2019s performance. If some of the issues outlined above are addressed, for example, configurations and quotes should happen faster, which means monthly or quarterly totals could change.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the addition of artificial intelligence features such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/products\/einstein\/overview\/\">Salesforce Einstein<\/a> will help make much more predictive. That means reps might not just be graded on the deals they close but the amount (and quality) of data they contribute. In other words, they\u2019ll be increasingly focused on the nitty-gritty details, too.<\/p>\n<p>Take your sales game to the next level with the tips in our free ebook, \u201c4 Steps to Transforming Your Sales Process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a adhocenable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/form\/blog\/sell-faster-smarter.jsp?d=7010M000002MONe\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/10\/transform-sales-process-cta.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"4 steps to transforming your sales process.
