A sales pipeline is a simple, graphic overview of where your sales are, and where you can expect them to be at the end of a given period. Used properly, it is both an at-a-glance snapshot of current opportunities and a predictive tool that can help you move forward effectively.
Like all sales tools, a pipeline is only as good as the data that’s being fed into it. Useful analysis requires looking beyond the bottom line at a range of different factors, including geographic and demographic realities for each of your sales territories.
That’s where MapBusinessOnline comes in. MapBusinessOnline is a cloud-based data-mapping platform that can be used to develop more accurate sales pipeline visualizations based on your business data.
Sales pipeline mapping with MapBusinessOnline is easy and affordable. Import business data from your normal management system and view it against accurate, up-to-date maps with demographic information, adding vital context that shows you where your team is most effective and where additional resources are necessary to meet and exceed your desired quotas.
From there, MapBusinessOnline lets you create custom sales territories that ensure your staff is evenly distributed and positioned where they will have the most impact. Map Business Online even lets you share data among team members, leading to improved collaboration and ultimately more sales.
Other MapBusinessOnline features for your salesforce include:
Working with MapBusinessOnline is easy and intuitive – the cloud-based platform integrates easily with Salesforce, QuickBooks and other software, allowing you to seamlessly share your most recent data between applications.
There are clear benefits to visualizing any sales pipeline with MapBusinessOnline. As a graphic tool, it brings to light demographic insights that are easy to miss when looking exclusively at raw data. MapBusinessOnline shows you where your team is and where it needs to be. It also shows you who your current customers are and where the best future prospects might be hiding. When you visualize this information, you can make informed decisions and allocate resources in a more strategic manner.

"Map Business Online is the only tool available that allowed our team the ability to create visual territories by zip code and then export the data into a spreadsheet. We were able to then populate our ERP system with that data/logic and create automated rules based on customer address zip codes. We cut out the manual process of inside sales entering incorrect freight delivery zones upon sales order entry. Now when sales orders are entered, we automatically populate the correct delivery zones that MBO allowed us to create. Ultimately, this is saving our company money and improving efficiency when shipping material to customers.
I highly recommend MBO, and we only have scratched the surface with what the solution can do."

"We used MapPoint for years and desperately needed a replacement solution. This one fits the bill and is actually much better in many ways. Especially in a team environment. We do logistics with routing technicians to jobs for roll outs. This helps our team working thousands of sites over multi month projects. Also, easy to manage licenses for users.
Example business case would be taking 3000 locations, and planning how you will have multiple different technicians visit an area or region of these locations over 3 months. Each visit will take x amount of time. They only work certain hours of the day, and you have to plan in drive time, so the day actually makes sense and the route is efficient."
