Salesflare

Input less data, make more sales. Your time is precious. 
Salesflare helps you focus on your customers.

Fully automated contact and company info.

Don’t worry about storing telephone numbers, email addresses or postal addresses for every customer anymore. No more searching for LinkedIn profiles. Salesflare gathers this information from emails, email signatures, social profiles, and more. Everything automatically appears in your address book. Stop managing data, start managing customers. Reduce time spent on data entry by more than 70%.

Automatic logging of meetings and phone calls.

Stop losing time on reporting what you’ve done. Salesflare connects to your calendar and mobile phone to log your meetings and phone calls with customers for you.

A handy document folder per customer.

It’s blazingly quick to find documents back. Salesflare automatically organizes the documents (and other files) you and your team exchange with customers.

Always stay on top of your opportunities.

Get all your opportunities in one smart overview and know which one requires your attention today.

Salesflare intelligently brings the opportunities to the surface for which action is due and shows the information you need to take that action.

If not now, you can decide to follow up later or assign the opportunity to someone else.

Follow up based on your customer’s reactions.

Track when and how your customers are digitally engaging with you.

Are they opening your emails? Did they visit your website? Which pages were they interested in? Invaluable tracking information is stored per customer and is revealed to you as real-time notifications, so you can follow up in an informed way.

Know your customers inside out.

When was your last contact? What did your customer tweet? What other social profiles does he or she have?

Collaborate more efficiently on customer conversations.

Who talks to whom? What is being discussed?

Your team members can follow the customer conversations they participate in, without having to be involved in all email communication, phone calls and meetings. Just share an account with them to start collaborating.

See how you are connected.

Ever wonder whether your colleagues are already in contact with a company? Or whether one of them can introduce you?
Salesflare shows the network of your team at each company.

Work together on one customer address book.

Salesflare automatically identifies which of your team’s email and phone contacts are customers. Contact details are shared in one central address book, so the whole team can rely on complete information. Private contacts always stay private.
