Scaling sales processes generally refers to putting the right systems and infrastructure in place to increase your sales team’s efficiency. The problem is that establishing these processes often takes a lot of time and manual effort – that could otherwise be focused on closing more deals.

Proposals, order forms, contracts, invoices – the list of files a sales rep manages goes on and on. Sales reps need quick access to important documents so that they can reference them in conversation with prospects and customers. Files on Deals allow you to pull up relevant files for your customers, preventing you from flipping through folders or needing to manage a separate system for file storage.

Our easy management system lets you do the following with files in multiple formats (like pdf, doc, csv, jpg, and more!):

  • Upload
  • rename
  • Download
  • Delete

4. Quickly edit multiple accounts and deals to keep your CRM organized and up-to-date.

An organized and up-to-date CRM is at the foundation of every successful sales process. But gone are the days of reviewing and updating accounts and deals one by one.

You can use this feature to re-assign deals to new reps, move several deals over to a new pipeline, or make bulk edits to custom fields – all of in a matter of a few clicks.
