***B2B sales and marketing tech stack is immense, complex and at times, overlapping. For this presentation, I’ll stick to what is available from within Salesforce Sales Cloud. I’m also not going to touch Marketing Automation Platforms (ex. Marketo, Pardot) and lead scoring***

Definitions
Lead – your prospects who’ve expressed interest in your product/service, but you haven’t yet qualified to buy
Opportunity – deals in progress that have been qualified
Account – companies that you’re doing business
Contact – the people who work in your accounts
Campaign – an outbound marketing project that you want to plan, manage, and track
Outside Telemarketing/Appt Setting Agency – outside company direct marketing goods or services to potential customers over the telephone or internet on behalf of another company
SiriusDecisions Demand Waterfall Model – shared view between marketing and sales of a B2B organization’s ability to generate new business. It defines, models, measures and diagnoses lead management processes.

Use Case Details
Challenge: CTG is a fictitious high growth, B2B IT cybersecurity solution vendor with 2,000 employees. They have a global sales team that utilize Salesforce CRM. To fulfill the need for more quality leads, the internal CTG Demand Gen team outsources a portion of lead gen to an Outside Telemarketing Agency. The initial responsibility of converting and working the telemarketing qualified leads (TQLs) was the CTG Account Executives (AE). Over time, CTG’s internal Demand Gen realized that these leads were not being attended to appropriately and campaign attribution was suffering and reports were not showing the full story.
Solution: CTG Demand Gen Team assigned a marketing resource to assist with the lead conversion process in Salesforce. This decision made the process more efficient, helped eliminate duplicate record creation, improved tracking of leads and proper campaign attribution and best of all, freed up time for the AE to do what they do best… SELL!

Zoho CRM Dashboard & Reports Overview [Video]

Zoho CRM Tutorial Video #43 Today, we'll be discussing the Zoho CRM dashboard and reports overview.You could use the Reports module in Zoho CRM for tracking your company activity. There’s a list of system default reports available in this module, but you could also create custom reports. This is an example of the report pipeline by stages; you could see all deals pipeline groups by the stage, every account, every deal, closing date, probability, and total sum of amount. It is also possible to create a chart for some reports. When you build your report, you could select multiple modules; you could select a parent module, then additional child module, and even more. For example, you could see a report for all accounts with all invoices and all meetings inclusive or exclusive. An additional module in Zoho CRM is the analytics module. Here you could also check the system default dashboards, but also create your custom dashboard with different components. This is an example of lead conversion to the deal. So you could build a component where you could see the total number of leads, total number of leads converted into clients, number of deals created, deals won, and total conversion rate. It is also possible to create different kinds of analytics here. Charts, lists, and some other. That's it for today's Zoho CRM setup guide.______ BONUS !!!
