(Introduction)
Every sales team wants to know how to shorten the sales cycle but there’s no one-size-fits-all solution out there. However, Dynamics 365 Sales has one of the most comprehensive sales support software options on the market and today, at a price that small to medium sized sales teams can afford. Today, I’m going to show you exactly how it can save your reps time and help them stay organized in their outreach, which will shorten the sales cycle for your entire team.

One of the main reasons sales teams adopt Dynamics 365 Sales is that it has plenty of built-in ways to help your business development reps stay organized and focused. Today I want to show you the Sales Accelerator tool that is available inside Dynamics 365 Sales. The Sales Accelerator allows managers to define cadences for sales reps, and also gives sales reps an easy to follow prioritized daily checklist for their sales efforts. I think the sequence and work list functionality that’s included is a huge asset that a lot of people don’t understand.

The Sales Accelerator is super flexible and that makes it so much easier for BDRs and SDRs to follow through and complete next steps. This is a really important balance because not only do you want to make sure a sales automation tool can do the things that you need it to do, but it also needs to be easy to use so people don’t revert back to spreadsheets, disparate notes, etc.,
