Chicago, IL (Vocus/PRWEB) December 01, 2010

Intelestream, Inc., a leading provider in CRM consulting and CRM Software as a Service today announced a strategic partnership with InsideView, the Sales 2.0 leader that enables users to discover sales opportunities from traditional and social media sources in order to close deals easier and drive more revenue. Intelestream is the first and only CRM provider to embed the InsideView application for all CRM users.

“Intelestream is clearly a thought leader in the CRM space recognizing the value of social media and sales intelligence for their customers. We’re thrilled that all Intelestream CRM customers will soon enjoy access to InsideView and look forward to sharing social selling best practices to help them be more successful”, said Heidi Tucker, Vice President Global Alliances at InsideView.

About the Integration

InsideView and intelecrm take salespeople several steps beyond basic contact data such as email addresses, phone numbers, and titles. With the addition of media connections, blog references, and news updates, sales organizations can better identify and close new business. By implementing InsideView with intelecrm, customers benefit from increased CRM adoption, lead conversion and win rates. InsideView is easy to use and turns an intelecrm deployment into an immediately actionable application that salespeople love. Users save time and gain relevant, real-time insight to dramatically increase their chances of making meaningful connections and ultimately closing deals.

The four primary use cases for the intelecrm integration with InsideView include:

1. Social networking is a way to learn more about a prospect and create a warm introduction.
2. Smart Agents™ allow salespeople to track companies of interest (customers, prospects, competitors) and receive alerts when compelling business events that could signal buying opportunities occur.
3. The real-time “inside scoop” and buzz about a prospect offers rich insight into what others are saying about the company on twitter and in blogs.
4. Build a list of new prospects (contacts and companies) that fit the target criteria, and easily import them into CRM.

“Buyers are smarter than ever before, and have access to a wealth of information about products and services. As salespeople, we need to be smarter too. In order to engage our prospects in relevant, meaningful, and timely dialogue, we need to understand the important business issues affecting our prospects and know the right time to engage in a conversation that earns their trust,” comments Ray Stoeckicht, VP of Sales and Consulting Services for Intelestream. “Salespeople who understand how to use social media and sales intelligence to effectively build trust and credibility are more successful than those that don’t. By aggregating traditional business information with rich social profiles and extensive social networks, the intelecrm integration with InsideView helps close deals and drive revenue.”

The InsideView integration is immediately available to all current and future intelecrm users. For more information, contact an Intelestream sales representative or visit the company’s website at http://www.intelestream.net
