Drive efficient growth with self-service subscriptions

Customers expect easy, personalized buying experiences and now, with Subscription Management for Revenue Cloud, businesses can build a subscription process around their customers so they can buy how, when, and where they want. With self-service buying and personalization across any self-service channel, reps can focus more on their high-touch accounts and deliver better experiences for customers, fueling the next level of a company’s revenue growth.

Subscription Management supports companies across not only high-tech, communications and media, but also manufacturing and professional services industries as customer demand increases for B2B self-service buying options. 

Accelerate deeper insights for the business

Five new, industry-tailored versions of Revenue Intelligence, a unified revenue management command center with Sales Cloud, Einstein, and Tableau capabilities, are now generally available.* 

Built for the financial services, manufacturing, consumer goods, communications, and energy & utilities industries, they provide sales teams with industry-specific KPIs and AI-driven insights to forecast accurately, gain better visibility into pipeline information, and coach sellers to close bigger deals, faster.

The marketplace has been asking forever to put all of these offerings together with a fixed price. This is a necessary innovation that will be very well received in the market.

Empower teams to collaborate in real time and close deals faster

Teams can use Sales Cloud for Slack to easily set up notifications for deals in motion, save time by updating and sharing deal details right from Slack, and securely collaborate across departments — such as sales, service, and marketing — to increase productivity and help reps close deals faster. 

Right now everyone is trying to do more with less and to consolidate to create a single sales cycle workplace. The revamped Sales Cloud Unlimited Edition meets all of that criteria and covers the most critical pieces — engagement and enablement.

Sales reps are becoming trusted advisors with the all-new Sales Cloud 

  • “Subscriptions are the lifeline of our coaching business. Salesforce Subscription Management can give us critical insights into our client relationships, make it simple to access the relevant information we need, and free us to spend more time connecting with our clients.”— Jeff Wechsler, Chief Orchestration Officer at EMyth 
  • “The move to the cloud has fundamentally changed the way our customers want to work with us. Subscription Management enabled us to transform our platform. It changed the way we interface with the customer and the way the sales team saw their data. The flexibility that’s inherent in a subscription-type model is an integral part of the commercial model that we’re engaged in today, and having the capability to proactively manage subscriptions with our customers has opened up so many opportunities.” — Martin Ingram, Chief Digital Officer at PTC
