Meeting your Business Needs Scalable for global organizations Amdocs Sales is proven in the largest sales organizations, effectively future-proofing your solution. Multiple deployment options are available, including synchronization between central and local servers, ensuring that the performance and integrity requirements of global sales organizations are met. Increase the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns through lead management Leads can come from many sources, including marketing campaigns, events, networking and customer requests. Once you import these leads into Amdocs Sales, you can associate them with their primary source, enabling you to measure and refine your marketing activities. Leads can be easily promoted into opportunities and any resulting revenue from opportunities can be traced back to the lead source, allowing you to measure the effectiveness of your marketing activities. Manage your territories efficiently Amdocs Sales helps you to identify and match your most appropriate and effective sales person to a specific territory. It also allows you to define a wide range of roles and responsibilities, including field sales, telesales, telemarketing, presales, and sales managers. You can then use this information to control access to the system, ensuring that only relevant information is shared among team members, maximizing both sales team efficiency and effectiveness. Improve planning through accurate revenue forecasting The ability to accurately predict revenue is a common challenge faced by most sales organizations. This is particularly applicable to businesses with long sales cycles where closure dates are difficult to forecast, and where individual deals can make the difference between a good quarter and a bad one. With Amdocs Sales, you can optimize the accuracy of your forecasting by proactively managing revenue and by analyzing the sales pipeline across a number of dimensions, including geography, products and lines of business. By using sales process metrics, your sales management can now apply standardized cycle times and closure rates, rather than relying solely on the personal beliefs of each sales professional. Capitalize on each opportunity The opportunity management functionality allows your sales professionals to maintain contact, account, product, competitor and sales-process information through an efficient and intuitive user interface. Opportunities may be shared among multiple members, each of whom may have a different role. Role-based security and personalization ensures that each member can efficiently fulfill their tasks. When sales opportunities satisfy the appropriate criteria, they can be submitted as forecasted items, removing the need to manually re-enter the details at a later stage. AMDOCS SALES 3
Stay in control with pipeline management When a new lead is created, it enters the Amdocs Sales pipeline and is tracked until it is closed - either as a deal that has been won, or a deal that has been lost. This end-toend approach allows you to identify and correctly apply the appropriate sales effort for that stage in the pipeline, in order to maximize revenue generation. Adapt to your business needs In addition to providing rich functionality for capturing and managing sales information, Amdocs Sales adapts quickly to changes in internal processes. This flexibility means that you can tailor methodologies such as Strategic Selling, Target Account Selling and Holden and enforce them to ensure your sales needs are met. Amdocs Sales includes a generic sales methodology as a starting point which speeds up your time to value.
