Sales professionals use map-based customer tracking tools like MapBusinessOnline to monitor customer activity, plan sales trips, and expose geographic patterns from sales and customer data.

Those MapBusinessOnline functions that specifically address sales professionals include:
- Customer Map Visualizations – Import address spreadsheets of customers and prospects, color-coded for fast identification. Arrange and symbolize your imported data to reflect sales revenue, visit dates, or other relevant data. Conduct spatial searches.
