What are the Enhancements to the Sales Cloud?

Page 31: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

Forecast adjustments make forecasting more flexible by allowing users to make changes to

forecast rollup amounts. Sales managers can save time by adjusting the rolled-up forecast number

instead of each individual forecast number for every rep.

What are the Enhancements to Collaborative Forecasts?

Manager can now

adjust own total

forecast rather than

allocating adjustments

to subordinates. This

feature also extends

to sales reps to adjust

own forecast.

Page 32: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

Lets all forecast users adjust their own forecasts with flexible

forecast adjustments.

Reps now have the power to make adjustments to their own

forecasts without changing the underlying opportunity value.

Sales managers can save time by adjusting the rolled-up

forecast number instead of each individual forecast number for

every rep.

It’s cross-platform. Whether you’re on

a phone, tablet, or desktop, it’s easy

to create, view, and search notes

right from within Salesforce.

What are the Enhancements to Notes?

Page 34: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

With the Spring ’15 release, Sales

Path streamlines the sales process by

keeping reps focused on what they

need to do to push their deals

forward. Visualize stages in the sales

process and surface key fields and

relevant content based on the stage of

the deal.

What are the Enhancements to Sales Path?

NOTE: Only available in Salesforce1

Page 42: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

At the beginning of the sales

process, there can be a lot of

information to capture, which

can be overwhelming for reps!

Sales Path makes it easy for

reps to capture the right

information at right time by

surfacing key fields based on

the deal stage.

Sales reps have a lot of

resources out there, but it can

be hard to provide them with

the right tools at the right time.

Sales Path helps reps focus on

what they need to do at each

stage. Provide best practices,

links to chatter groups & files,

and other relevant resources to

help them succeed in moving

the deal forward.

Onboarding new sales reps can

be challenging. They need to

learn the ins & outs of the sales

process, when to advance the

stage, what fields to populate &

when, and need help finding

the right sales materials. Sales

Path accelerates the

onboarding process by helping

reps visualize where they are in

the sales process and surfacing

key fields and relevant sales

content based on the

opportunity stage.

Capture key deal info at every stage

Relevant content when you need it

Sample Use Cases

Page 57: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

Duplicate Warning & Blocking has been a top request on

the Idea Exchange for many years now. Gartner says the #1

reason for failed CRM implementations is bad data. CRM

customers expect a warning or blocking of duplicate creation,

based on matching logic that they can configure. This can

increase efficiency for your teams, improve overall data quality

and improve accuracy in forecasting.

Duplicate & Matching Rules: Administrators can configure

matching rules for what constitutes a duplicate and duplicate

rules for what Salesforce.com should do when a duplicate is

found; these options include blocking, alerting, and reporting.

Duplicate Alerts: End users in sales, marketing, and

operations will be alerted if they are creating a duplicate,

whether working in the traditional Salesforce desktop UI or in

Salesforce1. Matching records are presented to the user so

they can work with an existing record instead of creating a

duplicate.

What are the Enhancements to Duplicate Management?

Page 58: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

Does your sales operations

team sometimes feel they’ve

got a second full-time job

managing data quality?

With the duplicate insertion

problem under control, sales

operations can spend less time

on data stewardship and more

time on their real jobs.

Does it frustrate your sales

team to have to hunt through

CRM to make sure a record

doesn’t already exist before

creating a new one? Do they

even bother?

Duplicate alerts save time by

notifying your users of

existing records when &

where they’re creating new

ones.

You’re doing business with

one company but you

wouldn’t know it because

your team is logging

opportunities to duplicate

accounts all over your CRM.

Sales management can have

greater confidence in

forecasts knowing there

aren’t two or three of every

account or contact appearing

in their reports.

Better Data Quality Greater Forecast Accuracy Increased Efficiency

The Console clone feature allows administrators to duplicate consoles very quickly. This is increasingly

handy as more configuration options are added.

Console for Service: Clone Console Apps

Page 88: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

The minimum width and height features for standard console components ensure that there is at least

enough real estate for a component to be usable. If there isn’t, the component simply collapses itself.

When expanded again, it expands to the minimum required real width or height.

Console for Service: Responsive Sidebars

Reduce from this width… …to this width.

With Spring ‘15, any

sidebar region can be

collapsed using the

‘Shift + arrow’ keys.

Page 89: Salesforce Spring '15 Release Overview Deck

Support agents can now save time by performing multiple actions in one click. For example, opening

the email action, selecting a template, sending an email, and changing the Case status can be done in

just one Macro.

Macros can be created by an administrator or any user who has permission in his profile.

Open the Macro widget with a simple keyboard shortcut.

Watch each Instruction being performed.

Each Instruction is being executed in the Console in real time.
