SalesDirector.ai vs. Veelo

It is well suited for any sales organization that is trying to mature its sales process, and continually improve its execution.

Veelo is my go-to place for information about Chrome River. For example, if I speak to a prospect that has a manual expense reporting process, I will go to Veelo to download some Chrome River content specific to the common pitfalls of processing expense reports manually and send off that content piece in an email. Veelo will also allow me to track open rates to see if the prospect is engaging with the content.

• I can easily see if there is communication occurring between the sales rep and the appropriate contacts at the prospect company. I can quickly see if the communication stream is a mutual back and forth conversation or if it is mostly a one-way stream from the rep to the prospect. If it is mostly a one-way conversation, this tells me something isn't right about this opportunity.
• The system looks at this communication and using AI, it highlights if it interprets any negative sentiment from the prospect allowing the rep or the sales manager to dig deeper into the opportunity and see if they can discover the reason for this negative response and correct it if possible.
• The software "learns" from previous successful deals we have closed and uses this information to alert us if a deal has been in a particular sales stage for longer than similar deals. And it learns who is the business decision maker or technical decision maker is for previously closed deals and points it out to the rep that they should make contact with this same position in the target company.
• The software coaches sales reps on actions that should be taken, based on our sales process, at each stage of the sales cycle. And it does so without feeling like its looking over your shoulder, by recommending the rep send a "confirmation of needs" email once the deal is moved into the 30% stage.

SalesDirector is more comprehensive and advanced than the add-ins I've tried.

We have used Dropbox before, but it does not compare to Veelo. Veelo offers many more features and can be accessed online which allows for the most up to date content at all times. Dropbox can't track content open rates as Veelo can.

• Positive. We have better insights into our deals. We can see when deals are getting bogged down, or when a deal may not close, even before the sales rep recognizes this.
• It makes it much easier to accurately call your monthly and quarterly forecasts.
• Our sales managers use it for their weekly one-on-one meetings with their rep and virtually no additional work is required of the rep or manager.
