IOCOM Offers Organizations Sales Collaboration Solutions With
Visimeet Video Conferencing
CHICAGO, July 17, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IOCOM, a leading provider of
universal video conferencing and collaboration solutions, today
announced its new platform designed specifically for sales enablement
and team management. Visimeet, IOCOM's flagship video conferencing
platform, will allow sales executives to improve team productivity
while saving time and resources.
Sales enablement and performance management efforts typically include a
number of focal points including:
-- Activity Management
-- Territory Management
-- Forecast Cadence
-- Profitability and won/loss analysis
-- General sales development/progress measured by all of above
"While many tools have been designed to improve the efficiencies of
these areas including CRM, incentive compensation systems, and a
variety of analytics and dash-boarding tools, there's a big drop off in
collaboration tools available to distributed sales forces," stated
IOCOM CEO Tim Hackett. He adds, "The de facto standards of common and
expensive web conferencing tools may be sufficient for viewing static
images and Power Point slides in impersonal conference calls, but most
managers today strive for tighter face to face collaboration for teams
on a regular and ad hoc basis."
Visimeet is a software-based solution that removes the distance between
regional sales groups by giving executives the ability to easily meet
eye-to-eye with their teams whether in conference rooms, on desktops or
laptops, or mobile devices. Teams can have regular interactive meetings
to review forecasts, conduct trainings, or collaborate on strategies,
best practices, and role-play skills. Subject matter experts can be
brought into sessions to provide value without the need for costly
travel.
A former sales leader himself, Hackett says, "Sales managers are
continually pressured to improve their team's activity and
profitability and Visimeet can assist in maximizing their output.
Visimeet enables sales professionals to more fully participate in
productive discussions and solidify true opportunities."
Visimeet can be used as a complement to traditional CRM solutions such
as Salesforce.com, Oracle, MS Dynamics, or SugarCRM. Sales managers can
have face-to-face discussions, while simultaneously viewing their CRM
with fellow teammates and management to better evaluate and qualify
opportunities. Along with internal team management and development,
many IOCOM customers are using Visimeet to connect with their clients
and partners for product demos, scheduled appointments, and ad hoc
touch points.
Sales executives can sign up for a free thirty day trial by visiting

better engage them with their teams.
