Selling Becomes Automatic
Everyday tasks can be daunting, monotonous, tedious – any number of words describing an unpleasant process. However, everyday tasks are also very important if you’re going to stay on top of the sales cycle. When you simplify the tasks by using automation features in your CRM, you’re reducing the amount of time you spend on the paperwork and increasing the time you can actually be making sales. If forecasting and lead tracking are processes that seem to be pulling your salesforce down, try automating the tasks.

Better Upsell Opportunities
Automation helps you improve relationships, which means you’ll have more knowledge about their wants and needs. This leads to opportunities to make an upsell. Without the information you glean from automated processes, you go into a conversation nearly blind; you have no idea what the customer really wants or needs and therefore can’t provide suggestions for upselling. Furthermore, automated processes that give you more insight into customer behavior and lets you know when they are most likely to buy and how much they might be willing to spend. With this knowledge, you can set alerts that remind you when to reach out to that customer and customize your sales pitch.

Automation Boosts Reporting

One of the keys to a successful sales department is having a robust reporting tool available to the salesforce. With a constant stream of detailed sales reports coming back to the office, the entire organization is armed with a database full of useful information that can help determine marketing strategies and the direction of the product line. However, without a proper reporting tool, sales reps are not willing participants.
