FG
Centralized communication improves efficiency and training effectiveness with AI-powered insights
Gong records all our calls, giving us feedback and creating a central platform for communication within our company. It's powerful for sales training and providing resources to our customers. Using the AI, Gong summarizes calls, gives notes, suggests follow-up emails, and provides useful statistics like talking time and sentiment scores. It also transcribes calls, allowing us to search transcripts with AI for insights about the account, including sentiment in calls and emails, without relying solely on my notes. This centralization makes Gong a great tool.

Enhances deal closures and have navigation and process flow features
They should also include ATP and CTP functionality. Whenever there is a sale or opportunity, sales representatives should be able to determine what is available in the inventory and how much can be delivered to the customer. For example, if I take an order today, it might take ten days to produce and deliver the product. This is the ATP. If a customer orders 100 cell phones, the CTP functionality helps determine if we can deliver that quantity. This insight is provided when ERP systems are integrated, as ERP systems handle inventory. However, even without an ERP system, this information is crucial. The ATP and CTP stock should be monitored or mentioned somewhere in Salesforce to make decisions easier for sales representatives. If my inventory has 10,000 cell phones from 8 AM to 6 PM at the start of the day, any confirmed orders should reduce this inventory count. We can monitor my inventory in real-time and decide whether to accept new opportunities based on current stock levels.
