What is Salesloft?

Salesloft’s Revenue Orchestration Platform uses AI to help market-facing teams prioritize and take action on what matters most, from first touch to upsell and renewal.

Simple Essential Sales Tool

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Salesloft is one of the most important tools I rely on daily to get my job done. On my previous account, we used spreadsheets and M365 CRM, where we needed to manually import/export everything, which really took too much of my time. Salesloft helps me do my work efficiently by automating calls and emails. I can prioritise my calls and emails by creating what we all call "Cadences" or a sequence and then just let it run. I can separate the most important leads, create multiple workflows, and run the most important cadence and then the rest. It's awesome for making sure no lead gets forgotten, and the dialer feature saves me time since I'm not manually logging every single call.

My only minor complaint is that in the last update, they removed the feature on the main dashboard where I can see how many calls and emails I've done separately and in real-time. I can now only see how many tasks and suggested actions or goals for the day. But this is only a small thing. Salesloft helps me by staying organised and keeps me from dropping the ball.

Pros

  • It is easy to set up a cadence or a sequence for each group of leads.
  • Calls and emails are organised and automated which helps me save time.
  • Helps me follow through and help me not to forget tasks.

Cons

  • Bring the real-time number of calls and emails made for the day from the dashboard. It helps me motivate to do more.
  • Create an option to reschedule the remaining tasks on a cadence for a different time separately. Let say just Cadence1 will reschedule and Cadence2 will remain active.

Return on Investment

  • .
  • As a user of Salesloft, the overall impact in business is positive. It drives revenue and efficiency.
