Advanced Turf Solutions and Newell are turning to Salesforce to accelerate digital commerce, reduce costs, and get closer to their customers 

Today, Salesforce unveiled new commerce innovations designed to help companies in any industry build customer loyalty, deliver frictionless experiences from discovery to fulfillment, and personalize every interaction.

Eighty-eight percent of business buyers and consumers say the experience a company provides is as important as its products or services. Commerce Cloud unifies customer and order data to create a connected and personalized buying experience for businesses and consumers across marketing, sales, and service touchpoints.

“With these new commerce innovations available on the Salesforce platform, companies across industries as diverse as manufacturing, healthcare, tech, and consumer goods can harness the power of automation and unified customer data to embed personalized commerce opportunities – enabling customers to grow revenue and margins while driving efficiency and cutting costs,” said Scot Gillespie, EVP and GM of Commerce Cloud, Salesforce.

Commerce Cloud helps build trusted experiences in healthcare and life sciences industry

Healthcare companies expect 46% of revenue to come from digital channels in the next two years. With Commerce Cloud, healthcare organizations can:

  • Quickly launch trusted storefronts with a HIPAA-compliant commerce platform for easy ordering of medical devices, consumables, and pharmaceutical supplies.
  • Streamline post-purchase journeys and reduce costs with connected commerce, order management, and service — providing order visibility, real-time inventory, and easy order modifications for medical technology and pharmaceutical companies.

Commerce Cloud helps redefine buying experiences for manufacturing companies

  • Modernize operations and cut costs associated with selling parts and accessories to dealers and consumers with self-service purchasing, subscription management, and one common data model for B2B and D2C use cases.
  • Improve fulfillment and order servicing with efficient and automated inventory routing, delivering omni-channel experiences that are connected across commerce, service, and marketing. 

“Salesforce enables us to make hugely transformational changes to our business behind the scenes, but to our customers we’re just making their buying process easy,” said Tracie Pruden, Chief Information Officer of Advanced Turf Solutions, a green industry distributor and producer of field products and accessories for lawn and landscape management.

Commerce Cloud helps consumer goods companies unlock new sales channels

Consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies expect 58% of their sales to come through digital channels in the next two years. Commerce Cloud enables consumer goods companies to:
