How Maplytics Mobile helps Field Sales Executives when on field?
- Get assigned routes right on the Dashboard
Routes assigned by Sales Managers can be easily accessed by Sales Reps from their Dashboards. They can plot today’s assigned route right from the Dashboard.
- Proximity Search to get records within a set radius
Sales Reps can search records around their current location using this feature either in Distance or Time. With the ‘Show Travel Distance’ option, they can also get the shortest travel distance from their current location to any of the selected records within the proximity.
- Categorization and Visualization of plotted records
When on field, Sales Reps need to be able to view only those records that they want. Our Layer Menu option helps them to visualize only the required data among the multiple plotted data on the map. The plotted records can also be categorized with different color-coded pushpins for better visualization.
- Update Waypoints and optimize routes
Sales reps can rearrange, delete or add a waypoint while on the map if needed. Route optimization feature of Maplytics provides Sales reps to use options like traffic-free routes, find the shortest and quickest route, avoid highways or toll routes, etc.
- Check-In/Out from mobile
Sales reps can check-in and check-out right from the map itself from mobile. They can also add notes and attachments to keep important details of the meeting saved.
- Point of Interest location
If the sales reps are not familiar with the area and they need to find a coffee shop or a gas station nearby, they can use the Point of interest location to search and plot them on the map or even add them to the plotted route if required.
- Turn by Turn Navigations
Sales reps when on the field can view the complete route or get turn-by-turn navigations using either Google Maps or Waze App.
How Maplytics Mobile helps Sales Managers when they are on the go?
- Stay in loop with the Sales Team on the field
Sales Managers can get the updated route of Field reps. If there is any cancellation or change in the assigned route due to any unforeseen events, the Field reps will update the route from the ‘Open Saved Routes’ option. Sales managers can later view the updated route.
- Track Check-In/Out details on mobile
Sales Managers can view the check-in and check-out performed by the sales reps on mobile. This allows them to keep track of the sales rep’s location and know the work that is done throughout the day, week and so on.
This is how Maplytics helps Field Sales Reps in making the most out of their field day along with increasing the productivity of Sales managers.
