Kuba Rogalski · Answer

A social media monitoring tool might be extremely helpful in this respect, both for B2B and B2C. On a monthly basis, there are thousands of people on social media asking questions expressing their willingness to make a purchase. A vast majority of those questions remain unanswered as potential sellers are unaware of their existence. You'd be surprised how many people use phrases such as "can anyone recommend" or "where can I buy" on Twitter and other social networks. There's nothing wrong or pushy in reaching out to them, especially as they are already on a lookout for a product or service and if you're the only one who responds to them, you're a lot more likely they'll end up buying from you. `

O yes! Found it here on PH and fell in love... 
It's pretty understandable email productivity Gmail plugin, which helps me track my emails and type emails faster with shortcut templates (it's called a bit weird - snippets, but anyway :) )

Answer

Easy to configure, use and visual. It is not built for extensive reporting or to be the database for customer information, but it is a tool helping the sales people to keep track of their actions.

Sometimes in sales, all you need is listen to clients and take the appropriate notes. Then, organize those notes and know where everything is and have access to everything all the time, no matter if you're on your laptop, tablet, mobile, or other's computers.
That's what Evernote is going to do for you, and more.

Demodesk is a collaborative screen sharing tool for sales and customer success teams

What is so special about Demodesk, is that you don't have to share your local desktop. What it does is providing a virtual display on which you can set up websites, apps, slides, videos or documents to present. That way, you decide what the other participant(s) can see – and, most importantly, what not (like Slack notifications, your Sales Force notes, etc.)

Also, both presenter and viewer can click and type simultaneously. Demodesk lets you even share control with multiple parties at the same time.

Another awesome thing is that it doesn't require any downloads or extensions. It works out of the box with any device and any browser, lag-free - yes, also Internet Explorer! Anyone can join by just clicking a link. 
And because Demodesk acts like a normal website, even the strictest firewalls won’t block it.

It comes with automated scheduling, so you Calendly is basically integrated already. Also, Demodesk offers real-time sales guidance to giving advice in sales demos.

It's not only a collaborating tool, but also audio & video conferencing tool.

Demodesk can be used for sales demos, customer onboarding, success and support.

Full disclosure: I work at Demodesk

Matthew Lawrence · Answer

There are so many tools out there that your sales team could use - but one software I recommend checking out is DottedSign. If you deal quite a lot with contracts, this is an essential app to have that will not only keep everything between you and your customers legally binding, but also gives you a peace of mind when dealing with lots of documents. My company uses this software and we enjoy the ease of use and being flexible when it comes to signing contracts.

Bailan Xie · Answer

If you are doing sales business, I can recommend you one of the best product for sales. Recently, i saw a news on TV that there was a journalist reporting a new product named "unique pocket cinema". In the background, there were so many people watching movie on the lawn. Oh, my god, I was so shocked that the instrument was a palm size projector, it's small and very easy to carry.What's more, you only need to connect with wifi or hot spot to watch movie; Besides,it's powerful build-in stereo , phone screen display and android system , you can download any apps in the device and take it to anywhere you want.

I saw the tester randomly played a Hollywood movie, what's amazing is that even though in three meters distance, the sharpness is even higher than the definition of smart HDTV. I was attracted by this new product instantly,and contacted the supplier, what a surprise! I only need to invest $300 to become their distributor. So i ordered a sample without hesitation, I just received the sample yesterday and many people started to asked me where I bought it and want to have one too. It seems the market potential for this product very huge. I plan to order in bulk to expand my business in a couple of days. I'm confident that this product will be the new trend for entertainment.If you are also interested in this product, you can go to their website http://www.nicenovelty.com to have a look.
