Today, it’s not enough to know how your team is doing; you need to know how and why your team is performing as they are. By utilizing Act! and Zoho CRM, you can evaluate your team’s performance and make the right decisions for your business.
Establish Measurable Trends and Patterns With a CRM System
While CRM clients vary, sales and performance trends can be understood with the right software. Act! and Zoho Customer Relationship Management Systems collate data so that you know what products or services your customers are buying and why.
By focusing on what is selling and what isn’t, you can make important decisions about where to focus and redirect your sales and marketing teams for optimum efficiency. Act! and Zoho CRM help with some of the most important aspects of decision making for company leadership. For example, imagine the power behind having the following:
- Custom crafted reports, graphs, and projections for each part of the company sales cycle.
- Create and edit select metrics unique to your company to see how your team is measuring up versus performance goals and industry standards.
- Identify areas needing increases and decreases based on the performance of each team member.
- The ability to accurately forecast sales on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis.
The Power of Knowing “When”
Each new customer contact and client win is important. Imagine the impact on your business if you knew where in the sales cycle the customer made their ultimate buying decision? With Zoho CRM and Act! systems, you won’t have to guess because that will be a reality. Let’s look at a few unique situations, that, when managed by CRM, would have a positive effect on your business:
- If a client is making a purchasing decision midway through your sales cycle, with either Act! CRM or Zoho CRM you can adjust the contacts activity and save everyone effort. You and your sales team can decide how and when to reach out to potential clients based on your marketing and sales history.
- Make your product and service offerings timely and relevant to those who matter most…your customers. As an example, using Zoho Campaigns (emarketing integrated with Zoho CRM) allows you to save time and target your customers with the offers they most want. This will separate your company from the others that bombard your customer with information or offers that are poorly timed or not desired.
