Challenge
Demodesk’s sales team was looking to build a more efficient and streamlined outbound strategy. At the time, their sales team was wasting time manually researching prospects and uploading information into their CRM. As you might imagine, this process was tedious, time-consuming, and not always accurate.
Stephen Williams, Director of Business Development at Demodesk, was looking to spearhead the process of finding a best-in-class solution to fuel his team’s outbound efforts.
“At the time our SDRs were manually researching accounts and contact details which was slowing down productivity. To scale, we needed data-driven insights and buying signals that could help us quickly identify contacts at best fit companies that are looking and ready to buy.”
After researching different solutions to fulfill the sales team’s needs, Demodesk brought on ZoomInfo to help automate the sales processes and uncover new opportunities.
“Our representatives are required to upload five new accounts and 25 new contacts into our CRM every day. What once took two to three hours per sales rep, has now been reduced down to only 10 to 15 minutes. Not only have we saved a significant amount of time, but the quality of these conversations is much greater thanks to the insights we get from ZoomInfo’s Scoops and Intent data.”
