Missing in Action: Vital Sales Data
When research firm CSO Insights recently surveyed CRM
users on the benefits of using this technology, it found that
increased revenue—a top goal for nearly every
organization—was cited by only 19 percent of respondents.
In other words, more than 80 percent of CRM users say the
technology has failed to help them grow sales.
Worse, at more than 70 percent of companies,
salespeople still lack the information they need when
making sales calls despite all of the money and time
invested in CRM systems, according to a separate study
conducted by CSO Insights. That missing information, in
turn, can stifle sales success
