Human relationships. We crave them, occasionally learn from them, and give our all to making them work. When it comes to sales, the great salespeople are those who are the most deeply human: Able to listen intently, have insight into problems their customer might have, and find or create solutions, even when all the roads seem to lead nowhere. But when administrative duties, such as recording, tracking, and connecting the details about every potential sale in the pipeline threaten to overwhelm salespeople, they—and sales leaders, too—wave their white flags. Enter sales force automation.
Clearly, this is a job for technology. Why? Firstly, because the potential for human input to result in human error is enormous. This is as true for managing customer relationships as it is for measuring sales performance and calculating sales compensation.
Secondly, but equally if not more important: In smoothly functioning, successful sales organizations, administrative functions don’t take top priority. Salespeople, upon whose efforts and successes any organization depends, are freed up from rote, redundant tasks, and can focus on selling. And sales leaders, instead of dedicating precious time to juggling administrative functions, can devote themselves to growth and retention.
Process automation eliminates the huge burden of struggling to manage account information that’s spread across teams in Excel sheets. It brings that information to a single centralized tool, easily accessed by both management and entire sales teams. It allows each person involved in the process to focus on value-added work rather than on trying to keep an eye on all the moving parts that impact performance. And it enables salespeople to do what they do best and even reach new heights of productivity.
