- Salesforce has broadened it’s scope to be much more than just CRM. It’s now a complete platform including their mobile app called Saleforce1
- Each Cloud focuses on key business processes Sales Cloud- Salesforce Automation Service Cloud- Customer Service and Support Marketing Cloud– email marketing, mobile marketing, Social Media Marketing, and much more Analytics Cloud Within each Cloud there are Editions- Each Edition builds on / adds functionality and features Workflow, increased # of custom objects, integrations, Appexchange products Start with one and as you grow, you can add more features and functionality, complexity and integrations. Also increase # of users but you cost will also increase. I think this is good to know that you don’t have to stay with what you have and that the upgrade process is very seamless and easy.
- This is an overview of the Salesforce Navigation I’ll quickly review this and we’ll see this more during our demo.
- I like this graphic because its simple to understand and if the core of the data relationships in the Sales Cloud Tasks can be associated to any of these objects The next few slides we’ll review each of these objects and then also see them in action during our demo
- Leads are business cards People with whom you don’t yet have a relationship yet but they have expressed interest in your company Leads are important because some of them will become Customers Your marketing efforts will drive your lead generation The goal is to capture as much information you can and act on these leads in a fast and efficient manner
- Accounts are Companies that you work with Customers Vendors Partners They are the backbone of the CRM system The information you capture is really up to you and your type of business # of Employees, Revenue, Type of business, How long they’ve been in business, etc
- Contacts are people who work for Companies. You can capture detailed information related to each contact Send email communications to contacts Assign them to Campaigns Associate them to Opportunities
- Opportunities are your sales efforts that you want to track- What’s in your pipeline Let’s you plan your sales forecast Can see the performance of your Sales Reps and also track what is closing each month/quarter, etc.
- With Campaigns you can track mass emails, set up events and workshops and then target Leads and Contacts for specific types of campaigns. AJ will be going into more detail tomorrow
- You can organize your reports into folders and also assign folder access to specific users.
- Review These Topics and then move to SFDC ORG Now I’ll be switching over to the Salesforce Org for our Live demo Start Demo with Navigation, List Views and My Settings
- Other ways to capture leads include: Manually create Leads Use a Web to Lead Form Create Leads through Social Media Today we will be Importing Leads using the Import Wizard Checks for Duplicates using email or Name Leads Source can help you analyze which marketing leads are getting the best results -What is the conversion rate?
