Dynamics CRM power play—Data-driven strategies for closing more deals

Closing deals sometimes feels more like an intense face-off than a regular meeting, right? Even the most adept sales professionals crave a strategic advantage. To tackle the challenges of modern sales, Microsoft’s Dynamics CRM provides tools driven by data and fueled by insights. This blog explores the

strengths of Dynamics CRM, where data becomes the driving force behind closing deals with precision.

How data in Dynamics 365 predicts and closes deals for you

Predictive lead and opportunity scoring: Helps sellers prioritize leads and opportunities with the highest likelihood to convert based on a broad set of signals from Dynamics 365 data and advanced scoring models. This contributes to increased conversions, win rates, and opportunity scoring.

Relationship analytics: Provides insight into the health of relationships with individual buyers and customer accounts by tracking signals from Office 365 and Dynamics 365 to analyze data points such as the time since last contact and the customer’s response rate, the number of emails and meetings exchanged, and activities initiated by the customer.

AI-powered insights: AI offers sellers contextual insights about opportunities and enables an agent to optimize every sales call and sell smarter. It uses next-generation AI capabilities and natural language processing to work alongside business professionals to help them create ideas and content faster, complete time-consuming tasks, and get insights and the subsequent best actions by describing what’s needed.

With AI-powered insights, sellers can:

• Obtain contextual insights about opportunities, enabling them to optimize every sales call and sell smarter.
• Automatically capture notes during sales calls and meetings, freeing up time for sellers to focus on selling.
• Get recommendations for the next best action, such as emailing or scheduling a meeting.

Get insights into the sentiment of customer emails to help sellers respond more systematically.

These sentences: find another word than GET. It’s low brow.
