Your sales process matters. You’ve spent time tweaking it, honing it, and slowly making small adjustments to map out a way to work that maximizes your active selling time. Salesloft created Connect for Gmail to enhance your process – seamlessly connecting your essential sales systems together in an intuitive experience that brings both Salesloft and Salesforce into your Gmail workflow.
Today, we’re excited to introduce a significant enhancement to Connect for Gmail with the ability to Create New Salesforce Leads and Contacts Directly From Gmail. With a couple of clicks, sales teams can now bridge the data divide between Gmail and Salesforce, connecting prospect and customer activities between the two systems.
Sophisticated Matching Logic
We all have a role to play in maintaining the data integrity of our sales systems. Data integrity is paramount to both organizational and individual success. The sophisticated matching logic underlying Connect for Gmail ensures the right connections between Gmail and Salesforce are made. When linking a contact from Gmail, we automatically search first for existing Salesforce records and auto-link if a match is detected. If the matching algorithm brings no results back, sales teams can now create the new Salesforce lead or contact and track all associated sales activities.
Customized to Suit Your Organization
Whether you’re a Salesforce lead-first or contact-first company, or even use both at different stages of the buying cycle, the new Connect for Gmail enhancement ensures that we work seamlessly with your organizational setup. Roles and permission governance provide Salesloft admins the ability to enable this new capability to entire teams or a subset of users.
