Slack, the AI-powered platform for work, now offers sales teams a new way to elevate their performance and manage revenue-boosting opportunities. Slack Sales Elevate integrates Salesforce Sales Cloud with Slack, to provide teams with a workspace that centralizes crucial information, simplifies processes and automates administrative tasks.
Built on the Slack platform and enhanced by Salesforce data, Slack Sales Elevate gives organizations a comprehensive productivity solution for growth. It addresses some of the core challenges faced by today’s sellers, accelerating deal cycles and bringing business context to sales conversations.
Helping sales teams focus on what they do best
According to the recent State of Sales report from Salesforce, the majority of reps spend only around 28% of their week actually selling. Teams are constantly navigating administrative tasks with dozens of different tools, giving them less time to connect with customers and close deals.
As the landscape for salespeople grows more complex, with changing customer expectations, increasing demands for speed and personalization, and greater competition, salespeople need better tools. They need a way to optimize their workday so they can focus on what matters most.
Slack Sales Elevate is the solution. It helps teams accomplish more by pulling critical data, such as customer records, accounts, opportunities and key metrics, into a single working space in Slack. The combination of real-time deal information delivered automatically and proactively to teams in the flow of work helps teams save time and close deals faster.
More than 80% of sales managers already say that Slack Sales Elevate helps them stay up to date on deals, reducing lengthy sales cycles.
Addressing common sales issues with speed
Slack Sales Elevate brings Slack and Sales Cloud together to help teams achieve success in a modern business environment. To thrive in today’s world, teams need to be agile and have a dedicated space where they can connect with colleagues, access tools and leverage data. Slack Sales Elevate assists with:
Automating routine tasks
Slack’s visual, no-code Workflow Builder allows any user to automate routine functions with custom workflows for any channel.
