Field sales software is geared toward employees engaging in the tradition of door-to-door sales. It assigns sales personnel logical routes that maximize efficiency. These tools can guide team members through sales routes and inform managers of where their employees are at any given time. Field sales software can be used to log successful sales or transactions, and monitor the activity of teams on the road.
Field sales software plays into the world of greater sales software. While other sales software assigns employees digital territories to be contacted via telephone, email, or video call, field sales software is different in that provides physical location territories. Field sales software seamlessly connects salespeople to their leads’ front doors. Certain tools can also integrate with or act as a CRM, harvesting contact information and serving as a hub for updates and field notes.
To qualify for inclusion in the Field Sales category, a product must:
Create physical sales routes
Allow managers insight into employees’ locations and progress
Integrate with a CRM or allow salespeople to record transactional information and contact details
Create reports that outline sales activity and performance
