What's new in Zomentum this April?
What’s New ?
This year has been transformative for us and for most of the world. COVID19 affected our business and forced most of us to move towards remote working environments. These changes though slowed down the industry but also have been the cause of opening up new avenues of revenue for businesses around the world.
We wanted to build on remote working factors of Zomentum and built features that would allow you to either automate or streamline your sales processes. Here are a few things that we think would add significantly to productivity and the new business environment.
Sales Automation - Save time by executing your sales playbook on autopilot
Automation has been a major driver in optimizing age-old business processes, this month we released “Sales Automation” in Zomentum.
What is it and what does it do?
Have you ever forgotten to send that agreement that your customer must sign before you could deliver and install the products?
How about the notification that your onboarding team needs to get to let them know that a new customer needs assistance?
With “Sales Automation” by Zomentum, you can set rules that trigger an action like sending a thank you, or sending out a welcome email with your standard agreement to your customer or making sure essential processes are followed by your team by sending notifications.
Here is a simple email being sent to a customer after closing an opportunity .
Sales automation helps you to,
- Automate recurring sales processes within your organisation including sending onboarding emails, or contract documents or standard quotes after a call.
- Speed up sales cycles and customer onboarding with trigger based actions that lead to faster turnaround times.
