The Salesforce Sales Cloud is a cloud-based product for the process-driven selling of enterprise companies. It has boosted the sales functions of many businesses around the globe with its ability to track, organize, and manage leads and contacts separately while keeping them connected to customers and partners via social media channels. This blog will look at 10 reasons every budding and well-established enterprise needs this software suite.

1. See all your deals and close them faster than before

With Salesforce Sales Cloud, you can quickly identify potential clients who have visited your website or opened emails from you [using lead scoring]. That way, you'll be able to prioritize re-engaging with these prospects right away through Salesforce Sales Cloud. The cloud platform will also show you the best time to follow up with your leads/contacts, allowing you to maximize your chances of reaching them while they're still interested.

2. Keep up with all your team members

All employees in your company can easily share customer information on Sales Cloud no matter where they are. Sales teams can work together on new opportunities using real-time data sharing capabilities.

3. Access to more tools needed for the modern selling process

Salesforce provides its users with various tools designed specifically for more efficient sales processes, including analytics, forecasting, social media integration, and mobile apps. The Sales Cloud will help you keep track of your customers and prospects, as well as the progress on any deal you're working on at that moment.

4. Better efficiency

One of Sales Cloud's main features is automating basic yet essential tasks, such as lead scoring and reporting. Utilizing Sales Cloud will allow you to save valuable time throughout the day so you can focus on what's more important for your business – closing deals and building relationships with clients/customers. You'll also be able to follow up on opportunities with just one click instead of wasting hours trying to find information about a particular client or prospect via email files.

5. Insight on your sales plans

With Salesforce Sales Cloud, you can look at all the sales plans and forecasts in one place. Sales teams will do their forecasting and sign off on each other's work while staying connected via out-of-the-box Chatter capabilities.

6. Helps sales teams organize and manage contacts

Sales reps can view all their existing and potential clients/customers information in Sales Cloud, including what stage they're at with them, the amount of time they've spent working together, opportunities where they're involved, etc. This gives sales reps access to more organized data about their contact history, which helps them better understand the company they are communicating with. Sales reps get more information about their leads/contacts, helping them plan out how to approach each and improve chances of closing deals faster.

7. Better forecasting

Sales management can use Sales Cloud's forecasting capabilities to analyze data weekly to understand whether or not they're reaching forecasts that have been set previously. This allows you to make adjustments along the way, if necessary, thus giving you an advantage over your competitors who aren't using an automated CRM system to forecast and monitor their sales activities as you do.

8. Automate marketing campaigns

With Sales Cloud, sales reps can manage all their activities related to marketing campaigns and track how well they're working out. Sales reps will design and launch new campaigns, measure performance (ROI), and optimize budgets throughout the campaign's lifecycle. Sales management can use it to report on the overall campaign ROI while sales reps focus on individual campaign results to adjust their efforts accordingly.

9. Add/invite other users

Sales reps who often work with specific clients or deal with particular prospects need access to data about them to maximize their chances of closing deals that generally require more personalized treatment. By using Sales Cloud, sales reps will have access to real-time data no matter where they are to stay in touch with their clients/customers while on the go. Sales reps will also be able to take advantage of Sales Cloud's Lead Response Management capabilities, which allow them to take actions on leads using just one click, for example, emailing, calling, or sending personal messages to the right person within seconds after receiving a lead.

10. Work seamlessly across multiple devices

You can access your Sales Cloud account from any mobile device, whether you're an iPhone, iPad, or Android user. That means you'll never miss out on changing customer situations, new opportunities or potential deals that require quick follow up. You'll always have all the data you need to help you make intelligent decisions about your business.

Salesforce Sales Cloud is changing the way businesses operate, improving their sales revenue by streamlining sales processes, increasing sales efficiency, and providing sales reps with the best-in-class platform they need to manage leads/contacts more effectively.

The key to having the competitive edge is to leverage Sales Cloud capabilities in the most efficient way for your business. The earlier you pull your business from the nexus of 'the old world' of isolated CRM systems, the wider would be the chase of your competitor.
