How CRM 2015 Bridges the Gaps between Sales, Marketing and Your Customer

In a world of increased personalization, customization, and service, customers today have higher expectations from businesses. To meet and exceed these expectations, departments need to team up and invest in solutions that streamline efforts to gain maximum customer satisfaction.

With powerful and easy‑to‑use functionality in marketing, sales and customer service, Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 allows businesses to generate prospects, close sales and maintain customer relationships.   See how these three teams are working better together by utilizing the latest features in Dynamics CRM 2015:

Encouraging salespeople to sell more, win faster, and drive results

According to “Always Be Closing: The ABCs of Sales in the Modern Era,” even if a salesperson closes 100% of all of their deals, they can only spend up to 22% of their time actually selling. The technologies they use force tedious administrative tasks that take up valuable selling time. Dynamics CRM 2015 lays out the sales process right on the screen with improved features, described below, through automation of daily administrative tasks, giving sales a better understanding of processes and more time to sell.
