Sales intelligence (SI) is the collection, analysis, and presentation of information that helps salespeople keep up to date with clients and identify new leads to reach out to. SI tools work strategically to build the pipeline and are designed primarily for sales development representatives (SDRs) and business development representatives (BDRs). The use cases for sales intelligence tools include:
There is some overlap between sales intelligence software and customer relationship management (CRM) software, sales email tracking tools, and predictive sales analytics tools. Many SI tools are designed to feed new lead records into CRM systems and keep them up to date. Some CRM platforms deliver sales intelligence themselves, such as company context and social information.
Both SI software and predictive analytics focus on generating lead lists and prioritizing which leads to connect with. However, SI tools focus on aggregating data to be used in personal calls and emails. On the other hand, predictive analytics takes a more automated data science approach.
Many SI tools help with sales lead management by generating new lead lists, tracking and qualifying leads, and maintaining customer data within the salesperson’s CRM.
Some sales intelligence tools can generate lists of new leads with contact information. They do this by searching the Internet, proprietary databases, and/or social networks. Searches are based on criteria such as:
This practice is called ‘prospecting.’ Apps and databases that help with this task are often called ‘prospecting tools’ or ‘lead generation software’. The goal is for salespeople to identify outbound leads to contact that fit their target customer profile.
Advanced tools allow conditional logic and negative search terms to target an even more specific customer profile, and can create ‘smart lists’ of prioritized leads. The prioritization is based on ideal customer characteristics and behavioral signals, which are used to predict their likelihood to become customers
Sales intelligence software helps salespeople figure out where to focus their energy. The tools either prioritize lead lists automatically based on pre-set rules, or provide intelligence needed for the sales reps to build lists manually.
For example, leads can be tracked based on:
This data helps with lead scoring, prioritization, and qualification. Qualification reflects whether leads are ready for a true sales conversation (sales qualified lead / SQL), or if they should simply receive marketing nurture campaigns (marketing qualified lead / MQL).
The tracked activity also appears on lead records, so that salespeople can have more informed interactions with leads based on how they’ve engaged with company resources so far.
Sales intelligence software also works to round out incomplete customer records within the sales rep’s CRM system. Most SI tools help pull in missing email addresses or phone numbers. Some also append company or industry details, org charts, technographic information, etc.
Data augmentation helps sales productivity in two ways:
In addition to adding new information to the database, many sales intelligence tools also make existing information more accessible. For example, they may integrate CRM records with the salesperson’s email inbox, so that lead details can be found and edited more conveniently.
Sales intelligence tools are typically priced on a monthly subscription model, per user. Some web prospecting tools offer a freemium version with limited volume and features for free. Paid plans start at $39/mo. per user and increase up to $319/mo. per user depending on the number of leads being considered.
For products that include a proprietary database and more advanced search criteria, pricing starts around $80/mo. per user and can increase up to a couple thousand dollars per year. Enterprise level pricing is typically available by custom quote only, and likely to run higher.
