Salesforce Launches Slack Sales Elevate

Salesforce announced the debut of Slack Sales Elevate in the Sales Cloud. Sales teams can now push their productivity by having an instant access pipeline, real-time data, and getting notified directly on Slack.

Slack Sales Elevate natively integrates with Sales Cloud allowing users to seamlessly access new sales homes, automation, account updates, and pre-built templates.

The Salesforce Product is now generally available, enabling users to work in a more efficient, more lively sales process and close more deals faster than before.

Acquired to create a “digital HQ’, Salesforce invested $27.7 billion two years ago in whopping Slack. The launch of Slack Sales Elevate indicates the fulfillment of the purpose of connecting workers and boosting collaboration in different teams working cross-channels.

How it’s a win-win? Sales teams face the challenge of being more productive and maximizing revenue, simultaneously fulfilling customer expectations. However, according to Salesforce’s State of Sales Report, sales reps are overwhelmed by administrative work and inefficient tools. As a result, they only spend less than a third of their time on actual selling activities.

Built on Slack and powered by the capabilities of Salesforce data, Slack Sales Elevate promises to leverage CRM data in your selling conversations in Slack. This also helps you to automate administrative tasks and communicate effectively with your partners, peers, and customers. It also ensures speeding your deals with a single view of your customer and all the tools you need in one place.

“Bringing Sales Cloud into Slack and providing new sales productivity tools and automation in Slack helps sellers save time and access the right people and information to make better decisions,” said Rob Seaman, SVP of Product at Slack.

“A Slack-based approach to selling will make it easier than ever for Sales Cloud customers to focus on the work that matters: working with customers and closing deals.”
