[All Sales Cloud Consultant Questions]

Sales leadership at Universal Containers is concerned that sales reps are negotiating deals with contacts without the authority to make a decision, resulting is lost deals.

What should the consultant recommend to resolve the issue?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

To avoid lost deals due to negotiating with non-decision makers, requiring sales reps to identify and designate a contact as the decision maker on each opportunity ensures that the appropriate stakeholders are involved. This approach enforces the validation of the decision maker role, which can help prevent deals from stalling or being lost due to lack of authority on the contact's part. Salesforce allows configuration of required fields or processes to make sure critical information is captured before advancing stages, helping align the sales process with effective decision-making structures.

Refer to Salesforce's Opportunity Contact Roles documentation for further insights on managing contacts in opportunities.

Ha, imagine the sales reps trying to sneak past the decision makers. 'What? This guy? Oh, he's totally the boss, trust me!' B is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm not sure I agree with A. Letting reps just mark a contact as 'Primary' seems too open to abuse. Better to have a more structured process.

I like option C - Opportunity Teams seem like a great way to keep track of the key decision makers. Seems more comprehensive than just marking one contact as 'Primary'.

B) Requiring the sales reps to add the stakeholder as the decision maker sounds like the best approach. That ensures the right people are involved from the start.
