I am very passionate about sales and processes, and I would like to share the Sales Tools that I use to be more efficient and close more deals.
Sales Tool 1 – Hubspot Sales
Why is it so good?
One of the hardships being in sales is that you send hundreds of emails and often don't get any response or feedback. It is tiring, and many times you don’t know if anyone ever sees your emails. Hubspot Sales is a solution to this problem.
What do I get?
- See who opens and clicks your emails - Show you if someone received and opened an email. It works directly from Google mail, Apple Mail, and Outlook.
- Profiles in your inbox - See relevant information for the receiver as you type in your inbox.
- Schedule emails - Write emails now and send them later
- Templates - Create templates of emails you send often
- Email sequences - Create email sequences and send out to your leads
What you get if you pay
- Figure out your best performing sales emails - Create ready to go email templates for your most common emails and measure how efficient they are.
- Know what content that closes deals - Upload documents to Hubspot, send it to your client and get notified when the document is opened and what pages that was viewed.
- Follow up efficiently with Email sequences - Create multiple emails and then send them automatically in a sequence to a client.

Sales Tool 2 – Calendly
Why is it so good?
Ok, let's schedule a meeting! And there you have it. It is just so cumbersome for both you and the client. You create 3 time slots send them to the client that doesn't reply for two weeks and when they answer that time slot is booked for another client. Do I need to continue? Calendly solves this issue to both you and your client's convenience.
What do I get?

- Automatic sync with your calendar - Automatic sync with your Office 365 or Google calendar.

What you get if you pay
- More than one meeting type - With the paid version you can have several different meeting types.
