What is Salesforce Sales Cloud?

Simply put, Sales Cloud is precisely what the name suggests, a cloud-based system to organize your sales process. Salesforce Sales Cloud is part of the CRM system that Salesforce offers and has been created especially for salespeople to enable efficient bookkeeping and management of sales data.

Salesforce Sales Cloud is a powerful tool that structures your data to provide you with a centralized source so that you can access and update important sales data, quickly generate reports, and even coordinate with customers simply at the click of a button. In short, it automates your sales process for you. Let’s take a look at all the features that Sales Cloud has to offer!

Features of Salesforce Sales Cloud

Lead Management

Salesforce Sales Cloud allows you to streamline the process of converting leads to opportunities by providing tracking mechanisms as well as routing mechanisms that enable you to assign leads to the right people and track their progress. That’s not all either! Owing to its cloud-based implementation, Sales Cloud also allows you to track the progress of marketing campaigns across all channels in the system.

The fact that you can access these reports from anywhere is just an added bonus that keeps you equipped with the right information at all times to streamline the decision-making process.

Sales Forecasting

In addition to organizing your data and workflows for you, Salesforce also streamlines the decision-making process by providing forecasting tools within the CRM.
