4. Improved targeting and efficiency – Location Analysis
The ability to see where your
customers are located enables
your business to focus sales
activity on the areas of highest
need. Conversely, being able to
illustrate where your prospects
are located, allows your sales
function to efficiently service
that requirement.
Maps can be adapted to not
only illustrate the location
of customers or prospects,
but also to inform strategic
sales activity by creating
bespoke sales territories.
Customised maps can be created
that function from a UK wide
level all the way down to Street
level.
