Viva Sales, according to Microsoft, is the most sophisticated AI-driven sales technology solution. “Viva Sales is a seller experience tool that allows sellers to utilize Office 365 and Teams to collect data into any CRM system automatically. Reducing manual data input and allowing sellers more time to focus on selling,” it states.
As a seller/salesperson, you spend significant time on administrative chores, such as inputting data into your CRM system to maintain it up to date. Time is money for sellers, and connections are essential. The time you spend inputting data into your CRM might be better spent on other important duties, such as meeting with new clients and selling.
83% of organizations already assert that they have placed AI as the top priority in their plans. Therefore, with its AI capabilities, Viva Sales can interface with any current CRM, supercharging it in the simplest ways. With all their data in one location, Viva Sales users can meet more individuals, convert them into customers, and foster long-lasting connections.
What Inspired the Development of Viva Sales, a New Seller Experience Application?
Viva Sales is a unique and modern approach to selling. As an intelligent CRM partner, Viva Sales simplifies sellers’ lives while expanding their CRM. The future of selling does not include learning a new system. It is putting the information sellers require at the right moment and in the correct context into the tools they are already accustomed to expedite their work experience.Â
Viva Sales expands on Microsoft Viva, introduced last year, and delivers an integrated employee experience platform that assists employees throughout their employment journey. Viva combines communication, learning, objectives, and insights to enable every individual and team to achieve more from any location.
Sellers are often busy people who value connections; nonetheless, sellers spend more time on administrative activities than they do selling. This spurred the development of a new tool for sellers that allows them to reclaim their time and focus on what is most important: creating solid relationships and closing agreements.
Having critical information in the flow of work saves time. It also helps sellers make better decisions and allows sellers to create stronger connections so they can complete more sales quicker. Furthermore, with customer engagement data easily and consistently managed in CRM systems, firms can run more accurate sales reports and projections, enhancing company performance.
