MenuWhat is a good CRM for remote salesperson that tracks what they are doing every minute
Answers
Properly set up Salesforce CRM with Saleforce Mobile would do this.
DUDE: YOU NEED A DIFFERENT SALES REP (OR MORE THERAPY)...
Let me be candid with you. This is a completely fucked up approach to driving new revenue. I've grown sales in (3) different companies by more than 1000% per year AND I've been CEO of a company that operated at that level.
Any sales rep who allows themselves to be monitored like this is full of shit -- and will never hit your mark. Frankly, you owe it to yourself to rise above this sort of bullshit thinking. Fire your "high base" rep today and start over. It's better for him (or her) and it's better for you too.
Take your goals for revenue creation and divide them by 10. That's your likely output for year 1. Take your deadlines for revenue creation and multiply them by 3. That's how long it's actually going to take.
ACTIVITY is for chumps. YES -- you do need an executive who puts in massive amounts of hard work on your behalf. BUT you also need a partner who will grab a sword and fight by your side to win the battle -- that means you shouldn't need to pay an outrageous;y high base salary.
Great sales execs buy into your passion and vision. You're not a whore. So lead and inspire -- instead of just paying for services.
ONE MORE THING: I can make a few calls and point a few amazing sales executives to you. But I want to make sure you're not a "head case" boss. Your question has me worried about YOU.
(Send me a message through Clarity and we'll discuss if I should point a few superstars your way)
I will agree that "every minute" is completely the wrong way to look at it. You should focus on results and activities (calls made, emails sent, etc.) rather than minimizing minutes in the bathroom.
That said, we did build Close.io < http://close.io/ > to track all activities *automatically* (phone calls, emails sent and received), which makes it much more likely for you to get an accurate report of all their activity, etc.
We recommend Capsule, It is not as automated as infusionsoft, plus it does not include any automated market channels, you have to use a third party application for this, however it is simpler and easier to onboard sales staff remotely into learning the platform and up taking 80% of the functionality as compared to infusionsoft. Plus the pricing point at $12.00 per month US per user is far better pricing.
Fully cloud based, works on all devices.

I understand your need for a robust CRM that can comprehensively track your remote salesperson's activities. It sounds like you need a system that goes beyond what Infusionsoft offers, especially in terms of detailed daily tracking and reporting.
One solution might be to create your own CRM tailored to your specific needs. This would allow you to include all the features you mentioned, such as automatic tracking of workday activities, sales pipeline updates, and detailed daily reports. By developing a custom CRM, you can ensure it runs smoothly on both desktop and Android devices and minimizes the need for manual data entry.
I recommend checking out this article: https://www.cleveroad.com/blog/how-to-build-your-own-custom-crm-system/. It provides a comprehensive guide on how to create a CRM that meets your unique requirements. The article covers essential aspects such as key features, development steps, and tools that can help you build a CRM that perfectly suits your business needs.
Creating your own CRM might seem daunting, but with the right guidance and resources, it could be the most effective way to get exactly what you need.

Looking for help determining ideal marketing automation -> CRM workflow.
It sounds like you're off to a good start with your lead generation. While it is important to keep lead volume strong, it's even more important to have a way to follow up with these leads and continue pushing them through your sales funnel until you can convert them into revenue. Without that follow-up, especially if you're generating leads through PPC, you're likely wasting the budget and energy you're putting toward your marketing efforts in the first place. The first thing I'd recommend you do is create an automatic "kick-back" email that triggers as soon as a lead downloads your ebook. Be sure to thank them for downloading, give them a link to access the ebook, and then (most importantly) include your call-to-action for the next step you want them to take. Second, figure out how you're going to handle these leads from a sales perspective. If you're stretched for bandwidth, I'd recommend a system where you assign dollar values to different types of leads, and only have a sales rep follow up with your highest value leads. How much is an ebook lead worth to your business? How much is a demo lead? What about someone who actively requests to be contacted? You'll find that as you get these systems and processes underway, it'll be extremely useful to have a CRM system both for integrating with your marketing efforts and for helping your sales team to be able to sort and prioritize the leads they're reaching out to. Lead conversion is a daily focus of mine in my role at HubSpot, and I'd be happy to chat further about how to get a strong marketing/sales funnel set up so you're better equipped to manage the leads you generate and better able to convert them into dollars. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!SB

What terms re-sellers use for selling SaaS?
A reseller typically purchases the SaaS at a discounted price and bill their client directly. I've seen reseller discounts range between 10% and 50%. The discount should be competitive with your industry, and allow a reasonable ROI for resellers. The reseller discount is typically for the life of the user otherwise expect resellers to offer their clients a competitor's SaaS. An affiliate or partner program that pays a commission for referring clients creates a direct relationship between your company and the users. In these types of programs, your commission could be a one-time payout upon referral, a recurring % of sale for the first year, or a recurring % of sale for the life of the client.MK

Which CRM should we use to keep track of fundraising relationships?
I've worked with a couple of CRMs; if you are looking for a custom-like solution, I'd recommend Podio. Salesforce has a lot of options, but tends to overwhelm folks who are not familiar with their tool. If I didn't go with Podio, I'd choose HubSpot because of the integration with their other sales and marketing services. I don't know any other details about your venture, so it is hard to offer a tool that will grow with you. I'm happy to discuss more and give you a more detailed answer.
