Field sales automation for revenue growth
Field sales reps often spend a big percentage of their time traveling to and from clients. Their schedules are flexible (if not unpredictable) and they often have quite a bit of independence in their day-to-day. They book their own meetings, make their own travel plans, initiate follow-ups, etc.
Typically, field sales reps sell products with a fairly long and complex sales cycle, like B2B sales for consumer goods, manufacturing, food services, automotive, and pharmaceutical companies. Thus, they may only close a handful of deals, but they tend to be longer-term and of higher value deals.
For instance, field sales reps are always on the road, it is a tough job. The hours start to add up when you start to factor in the extra time required for preparation and paperwork that must be completed. Paperwork is a necessary evil. Without forms and reports, there is no way to track progress. Thus, you can’t follow-up or improve what you don’t track.
Therefore, the more control and visibility you have of your sales pipeline, field sales teams, the more revenue you can bring into the business.
