Sales Process - What Can You Automate
In the current complex and competitive market, managing the
sales process is an important factor for most businesses. By
automating a company's sales process and efforts, one can
increase its productivity.
Sales Force Automation, or SFA, is a technique used in marketing
and business that automates the business tasks of sales. Sales
tasks that can be automated might include contact management,
order taking and fulfillment, information sharing, inventory
monitoring, sales forecast analysis, and employees' performance
evaluations. Using SFA improves the efficiency and effectiveness
of a sales team by streamlining and speeding up processes and
eliminating errors. Through this technology, a sales force can
have access to the latest information regarding customers'
accounts and pricing.
SFA is almost like Customer Relationship Management (CRM) which
covers a vast array of topics, including areas of sales
effectiveness, customer service, and marketing management.
Certainly in business, each second is valuable and you can't
waste it searching for information. You can save time and money
as Sales Force Automation provides optimized communication
services. You also get complete management capabilities for
applications and users. SFA helps you in improving customer
satisfaction and it also increases sales force productivity.
Currently there are a number of SFA software solutions on the
market. These software solutions help sales people take better
care of their customers. They change routine aspects of sales
and marketing functions such as lead assignment, contact
follow-up, and opportunity reporting. Good SFA electronically
manages all sales activities within a company. It is a
methodology that enables sales personnel to concentrate on
selling by providing tools to obtain very efficient information
exchange in the sales cycle. Earlier sales force automation
software installations were designed for the desktop or laptop
and were not easily accessible by hand held devices. With the
advancement in web
based SFA technology, sales representatives
can use Pocket PCs to record orders on the spot. These order
details can be sent back to the system in real time over a
network such as GPRS.
SFA can help sales people to manage customer interaction
throughout the sales cycle, from primary contact through
post-sale service. SFA applications serve two different users
within a company, sales managers and sales representatives, who
have changeable requirements. Sale force automation is essential
in those industries where the direct field sales force tends to
be high and account management is important. Pharmaceutical
companies and manufacturing industries have obtained significant
returns on sales force automation investments.
Before opting for any SFA software, research your options. A
good sales force automation solution should have features such
as multiple sales processing options and the ability to use
multiple information sources. It should help in providing
automation of customer assignments and field accessed decision
support.
A sales force automation solution that is web enabled is at a
huge advantage to those that are not. Web capability allows
access to information and forms anywhere, anytime and also tools
for accurate sales and demand forecasting. There must be strong
security and flexibility to support new data and functionality
without a large scale redesign of the system.
When choosing a sales force automation solution, keep in mind
your clients and your sales force. Without flexibility to meet
their needs precisely, you are likely to lose efficiency in the
sales process. Choosing a flexible option will ensure your
system will grow with your company.
