What is sales-i?
sales-i is a sales intelligence solution that will equip your salespeople with the tools and information they need to increase sales and compete in the marketplace. By carefully monitoring customer behavior and purchasing patterns, it discovers and analyses precisely when, why, where, and how businesses buy their products and services, transforming the knowledge into targeted, high quality sales opportunities. This information is then express-delivered to your salespeople via automatic text message and email alerts. And because it is a web based program, there is no software or hardware to buy or install. A small monthly subscription gives you access to everything without any hidden costs.
sales-i is the smart way to reel in drifting customers, cut product leakage, fill gaps in your territory, and spot cross and up-selling opportunities in an instant - all while maximizing your sales, enhancing client relationships, and boosting profitability.
Here is what one sales manager said about sales-i and using it to plug gaps:
"We finished the short product training session with sales-i in the morning. That afternoon we used the product-on-product comparison feature and immediately identified one of our customers who had bought flip pads and pens in 2007 but had not ordered any in 2008. Armed with the information, we called the customer and came off the phone with an order for $760!"
What's in it for me?
With sales-i you or your salespeople will be able to :
- Uncover sales opportunities to maximize their share of customer spend
- Monitor customer buying behavior by accessing sales alerts that are sent directly to your Outlook inbox
- Improve profitability by identifying customers who "cherry pick" low margin items
- Increase productivity and efficiency
- Increase sales call effectiveness
- Access information on customer buying patters to make effective calls
- Receive early warnings of competitor activity
- Connect link sells...who is buying copy paper but not toner?
- Track customer relationships with an in-built CRM-no need to purchase a separate software program
- Access all customer data and records from your desktop, laptop, mobile phone, or BlackBerry
- Drive pro-active marketing promotions to a targeted audience (Ability to identify specific opportunities at individual customers enabling you to focus your advertising and promotional efforts)
sales-i enables Newtown Office Supply to Cut its Month-End Sales Report Production from 8 Hours to 5 minutes:
“We had a
tedious and time consuming, manual sales reporting process which
involved downloading reports from our DDMS system and loading into
an Excel spreadsheet simply to find out what was going on in our
customer base. Trying to focus on a particular customer and their
buying behavior was even more difficult. As a result month end
reporting took 8 hours; a process we have now reduced to 5 minutes
with sales-i. In addition our weekly sales meetings used to rely on
anecdotal information rather than hard facts. With sales-i we now
conduct our sales reviews direct from sales-i and have instant
access to territory drill-down, specific customers and purchases
giving us very immediate, actionable information.”
A great way to learn about sales-i is to watch the video The sales-i story starring Andy the Sales Manager and Sam the Salesperson. It is a very fun and informative 2 minute video that gives you a general overview of how sales-i will help salespeople and sales managers.
Sales Intelligence on the go with Cell Phones and Smartphones
Salespeople
face many challenges when working out in the field, including
routine visits to customers armed with little information, sales
visits with no clear sales objective, missing product category
opportunities, and more. Simply equipping salespeople with
laptops is not the answer. sales-i was developed with these
things in mind. It was made to run not only on laptops but
directly on cell phones and smartphones "enabling" salespeople to
get the information they need when they need it while in the field.
This has revolutionized the world of sales intelligence and the
lives of front line salespeople.
And since sales-i was developed for salespeople by salespeople so you don't have to be an IT guru to start using it immediately.
Irongate's CEO Adam Noble had this to say about sales-i "Signing up for sales-i is a no brainer. With no infrastructure or hardware investment you only have to consider the monthly cost which can be as little as $2 per salesperson per day. Balance that with up-sell and cross sell opportunities each worth between $400-$600 and you'll see why we're so upbeat about sales-i"
