Salesforce1 Mobile App Just Keeps Getting Better

If you’re not using Salesforce on mobile devices, now is the time to get started. Here’s what customers are saying about Salesforce1 Mobile App:

“I can run my business from my phone and that’s changed my life.”
“The Salesforce1 Mobile App helps our reps manage every aspect of their business, so they can spend less time at their desks and more time with customers.”

What is the Salesforce1 Mobile App?

Salesforce1 Mobile App puts all the information you need right on your phone. Your sales team can do business anywhere, not just at their desks. Here’s just some of the things you can do with Salesforce1.

Access your dashboards, review reports, and share the dashboards with your sales team.
Organize your day with a portable calendar.
Check urgent messages and approve requests.
Close deals faster while on the go.

How Can Salesforce1 Mobile Streamline Your Business?

Imagine that your sales team carries all their customer records in their pocket. If the customer has a question about a shipment, you’ll have the status in a flash. If the customer needs to reorder, you’ll have the information about their prior order at your fingertips. Imagine what that would do to improve the customer service you’re able to provide.

Your sales team won’t need to spend hours at night completing paperwork. They can update customer records as soon as they leave an appointment, which will make the information even more accurate than if they did the update hours later.

You’ll be able to improve efficiency and make sure follow up tasks are documented. In fact, since all departments are sharing information in real time, you may get the answer to a question before you leave the customer’s office.

With Salesforce1 you can create additional apps for your business 5x faster then traditional development. Automating key processes with your own apps will free everyone up to focus on reaching their most important goals.
