Close your deals faster. Learn how to get the full value from your Sales Crm, using a great range of labour-saving features.

The salesperson’s toolbox

Your CRM is a lot like a craftsperson’s toolbox.

An intelligently designed space, holding everything you need to manage your complete sales process.

In a toolbox, the most used tools are usually found at the top. The ‘hammer and saw space’.

But not every day is a hammer and saw day, and just like your CRM, a well-stocked toolbox comes with a lot of other time-saving, but rarely-used tools.

Really great craftspeople know how, and when, to use all the tools at their disposal.

That’s where Teamgate can help. Presenting you with an array of great sales-management tools, Teamgate can super-charge your productivity.

#1 Data Import of contacts and files

Manual data import is the bane of many salesperson’s lives.

Teamgate gives you automated data import as one of the best time management features for busy salespeople. Time-saving with CRM features designed with you in mind, is the key to that effective time management process.

Contacts’ and leads’ data files can be imported automatically into your CRM software. You can import .CSV files, .XSLX files, Google and Apple contacts, and other contacts directly from LinkedIn.

In order to facilitate faster and simpler data import, Teamgate allows for data mapping.

This means, that according to field names which you’ve chosen, the software determines which data belongs to which field, and organises that data intelligently.

You can create these fields before importing your data to the system, or they can be created automatically during import.

#2 Landing pages that work for you

By connecting your website directly to Teamgate you can easily create landing pages to capture new leads.

Landing pages can be created without any technical knowledge, the use of web-designers, or IT people. The landing pages – templates – are designed to gather visitors’ data, allowing you to generate new leads effortlessly, and import them automatically into Teamgate.

#3 Easy editing of contact details

An efficient sales CRM has to let you make changes to your leads’ or contacts’ personal, or status details, quickly and easily.

Teamgate allows you to make such changes directly within the lead/contact card – it couldn’t be easier.

There’s no long-winded editing process, simply click on the ‘edit’ button in the lead/contact card, click on the button with ‘three dots’ and you’re ready to edit, instantly. This lets you edit, amend, copy, or delete data on the fly.

With your Teamgate sales CRM increase productivity right across the whole sales pipeline.

#4 Faster activity planning

Here’s another great feature straight from the bank of Teamgate time management tips.

Event and activity planning, tracking, sharing, and amending is central to keeping up-to-date with all of your leads and contacts.

Teamgate CRM allows you to create events more easily, straight from your lists (Leads, Contacts or Companies), and not only from your contact cards.

#5 Filters and saved searches

Another great way of valuable time-saving with CRM smart features is through the use of filters and saved searches.

Searching through an extensive contact list takes time. Teamgate recognised that the use of filters are essential for smooth lead and contact-management.

That’s why the Teamgate sales software has upgraded, and streamlined, the whole filtering process.

The new filtering process allows for neat and uncluttered views and simplifies the search process, – letting you choose from the filters most relevant to your search.

While still retaining quick filters, your lists section now benefits from custom filters, letting you use the 3 most suited to your needs.

You can create – and save – new filtering criteria to be used repeatedly. Any filtering criteria which you’ve created and saved from previous versions will remain intact.

Along with both existing, and custom filters, you can employ one-off filters to streamline the filtering process.

These innovations make your searches far more productive using the Teamgate filtering upgrades.

#6 Global smart search

Another great time management tip is the use of Global Smart Search.

This super tool allows you to perform, and refine searches using keywords – or fragments of keywords – across any part of the database. The results can include leads, contacts, companies, files, deals, or any other information you might look for from your CRM software.

You can use Global Smart Search with phone numbers, emails, and addresses. You can also search for attached files by their file-type, ie. PDF, DOC, CSV.

#7 To-do lists and notifications

Another of our great time management tips is to simplify your to-do list.

With just one click, Teamgate calendar gives you a clear overview of your to-do schedule. Uncluttered and simple, the calendar displays your tasks due today, tasks overdue, and tasks due this week.

#8 Eliminating contact duplicates

Duplicated contact information is a salesperson’s nightmare.

But Teamgate have the solution covered. To avoid duplicates in your contact lists the intuitive, and efficient sales CRM software automatically identifies duplicates, giving you the ability to manage them quickly, and simply.

#9 Teamgate on-the-go
