Customer Relationship Management for Digital Sales

CRM with the SAP Sales Cloud

Offering customers the best customer experience at all times requires more than just a classic Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. CRM software such as the SAP Sales Cloud connects all processes along the value-creation chain and is the engine for more sales in a shorter time and the basis for a perfect customer experience.

More than ever today, the sales team – from inside sales to the sales force – has to have access to important customer information from anywhere and at all times in order to make the best possible decisions. With the SAP Sales Cloud, customers – regardless of whether B2B, B2C or B2B2C – will be assisted through the entire sales cycle. Sales keeps the all-around view and has access to critical customer data in the CRM system at all times and on all end user devices, online and offline.

The challenge: The customer frequently knows more

Precisely in B2B, purchasing processes are frequently complex and include many touchpoints and participants. Added to this is the fact that customers have already made 50% of their decisions before they come into contact with sales. Today, sales has to work so that it is relevant, intelligent, and quick in order to provide customers with an optimal experience that inspires them to keep coming back.

The requirements keep changing, just like the customers themselves. While previously SAP CRM On Premise was the first-choice CRM solution, today, SAP offers solutions from the cloud, on-premise, and hybrid solutions.

The SAP Sales Cloud unites mobility, user-friendliness, and efficiency in one platform. And this very easily from the cloud – without your own hardware. Quarterly automatic updates ensure that the CRM system is always up-to-date with the latest technology. With the SAP Sales Cloud, you can make a quick start with digital sales.

Here’s how sales can profit from the SAP Sales Cloud CRM solution

360-degree view of sales processes and all customer information in real time provide a true competitive advantage, one that pays off.

Closer networking & cooperation

All members of the sales team, whether inside sales or on the sales force, can work more effectively together thanks to close networking and a common view of customer data.

Thanks to an easy, intuitive interface, the user experience is better – everywhere, at all times, and on any end user device.

Acceleration of the purchase process

Regardless of whether repeat purchase or initial contact, sales is perfectly prepared with a seamless process. From lead to opportunity to conclusion – the customer experience is consistent.

Customer Experience

Sales is aware of all relevant processes and has an all-around view of the customer. Customers profit from a better customer experience.
