How Cobalt Amplifies the Value of D365 Sales

Dynamics 365 for Sales really is powerful enough to serve the cutting-edge industry needs of the largest multinational corporations and sales teams working together around the globe. The features and tools are extensive, and the licensing options are famously complex. But don’t worry about any of that … because we speak Microsoft.

Let us translate…

The complexities of the Dynamics 365 license structure into exactly what your team needs. Everyone will have exactly the tools or access to the data they need without paying more than you need. It’s not uncommon for us to save companies tens of thousands of dollars a year through our licensing expertise alone. Comparable licenses for Salesforce and Microsoft have a runaway leader: Microsoft offers much more sophisticated software at a price point that is 30 to 40 percent cheaper. Microsoft also offers the ability for non-sales users to access D365 records without a license through Microsoft Teams.

All the data actually helps sellers sell. It’s not as revolutionary as it might sound from where you are today.


An Overview of Cobalt’s D365 Sales Packages

All of our implementation packages start with a robust set of base Dynamics 365 sales tools. We then run your team through a sales analysis workshop so we can better understand how you operate today. From there, we’ll tailor the system to meet your requirements, pull in data from your existing CRM (or spreadsheets), build the reports you need, and train your team in as little as 4 weeks.

Where is Your Sales Team Feeling the Pressure Right Now?

Just like ours, your sales challenges are endless and always shifting, as your markets change. We hear these struggles and complaints over and over again:

Why is it so hard to see what sales opportunities our business development reps should focus on each morning?

We spend all this time feeding our CRM data, but it doesn’t actually help us sell more. There’s no ROI on our effort.

Our sales and business processes aren’t that complicated. The free and cheapest sales tools don’t do enough, but the massive enterprise-level systems are way more than we need (or can afford).

Let’s get beyond general issues and start to get specific about what you need with your priority business processes. In one of our product showcases, you will quickly get a concrete look at the Dynamics 365 Sales features that could make the biggest difference for your team — and how our team handles implementations, training, and ongoing support.
