The week of Dreamforce is filled with sessions, living up to its name of “The Learning Event of the Year”. If you weren’t able to make it to Dreamforce or our breakout session, How Enterprise Companies Stay Competitive Using Maps & Geolocation, we invite you to check out some of the highlights below.
Geopointe’s CPO/Co-Founder, Scott Hemmeter, and VP of Customer Success, Sandro Viselli, were honored to be joined by Dolores Skarjune, Senior Vice President Sales Administration, at Globe Life and Joseph Harrington, NA MBU Market Development Advisor, of ExxonMobil.
What is Geolocation?
Geolocation is the art of deriving meaningful insight from location information and its relationship with operational data in order to achieve a particular goal.
Why Geolocation?
Geolocation has the ability to bring data to life and simplify the ability to act upon it. You can take a report of Opportunities’ billing state, count per state and sum of amount and turn it into a Thematic Map that is easy to absorb. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, right? Rather than looking at rows and columns filled with data, you can see it laid out on a map to gain a true perspective of the data.
What does Geopointe do?
Simply put, Geopointe uses Geolocation to location-enable Salesforce, allowing Customers to gain analytical insights and productivity by applying “where” to their business processes. With the addition of location intelligence to your Salesforce data you are better able to make decisions that drive productivity.
