Discuss Salesloft Products

My coworkers and I have noticed the Salesloft Chrome extension banner appearing more frequently today. I checked the Salesloft Chrome extension release notes, and it looks like a bug fix was released on 11/5/24 to roll back to version 1.3.12 due to reported issues with the "Loft It" button.After reloading the browser, the banner still appears sporadically throughout the day. Do you know when this issue will be fully resolved?  

Will the articles from community.drift.com migrate over to this hub? A coworker wanted to share a discussion post with me related to "IntegrationRequest failed and no fallback available" failures in Drift that she found last week, but I get redirected to the Champions Hub homepage when I click the link and nothing pops up when I search "IntegrationRequest”. I’m not in desperate need of the info in the discussion, but it did bring up this point that I’m curious about.

Our team recently observed the appearance of a new “Loft It” button within Google Calendar (GCal) events, seemingly replacing the standard “Save” button. When users update a Google Calendar event and select the “Loft It” button, both a new GCal and Salesforce event are created, which also triggers an additional meeting notification for external participants.Key ConcernsDuplicate Notifications and Records: When the "Loft It" button is used, external recipients receive another notification for the meeting, which can lead to confusion. Additionally, multiple entries in GCal and Salesforce may appear as duplicate records, potentially cluttering calendars and systems. Documentation Gap: There’s currently no official Salesloft documentation that outlines the function and expected behavior of this feature. The existing knowledge article, last updated on November 21, 2023, still refers to the previous Chrome extension. The features between the two different extensions are different.  Saleslo

The command center will now surface revenue leaders an AI-driven insight to automatically identify sales reps who require coaching, based on predefined criteria such as low win rates and high objections per deal. Leaders can orchestrate the coaching workflow through enabling a play to automatically send conversations for the manager to review and score with Rhythm tasks.  Additionally, when you have Seismic or Highspot buyer signal coming into Salesloft, users will see an insight regarding the likelihood for that person to convert to a new opportunity to incentivize completing those signal based tasks. Check them out and let us know what you think in the thread!

I’d love to hear some best practices on handling a sales cadence that may not involve the end customer until later in the sales funnel

Does anyone use Maildoso or a similar service with Salesloft? Maildoso is telling me that it’s possible and that they have clients who use it with Salesloft but Salesloft support is telling me that it is not supported.

I’ve been focusing on supporting sales managers to use Salesloft to revolutionize their pipeline calls. However, this is a new tool. The sales team recently went through MEDDIC training and I’m curious if anyone has ideas on how I can bridge the gap to better help the team. They keep their pipeline calls private, so I run independent training with the sales managers. 

As a Customer Success Manager here, we don’t own the renewal process however we are really close to customers and if there is any risk on an opportunity. I wanted to share one way our team uses Deals/Pipeline View to help communicate the health and risk of our renewals, and set our Renewals team up for success, By pulling in required fields—Best Case, Worst Case and Expected Values along with our CS Next Step Notes field - we created a more streamlined and informative dashboard for Managers and Executives. Here are a few reasons why this approach could be a game changer for our team: Increased Clarity: Having these fields visible in the Pipeline view allows us to quickly assess the status of each deal at a glance and we only need to update the information that matters. We can also easily identify which renewals need immediate attention and which ones are on track. Improved Accountability: By us all using this shared dashboard it encourages our team to keep the data updated and accura

When I have an account linked to CRM, the account pulls in the “Industry” field.I want everyone who gets linked to an account to get that data copied on to the person record.I only want to use Salesloft to do this. Lets get creative. Example.Person A gets created in Salesloft and associated to an account based on email domain.When person gets linked to account based on that rule, fill in the person industry with the account industry.

Hi Champions 👋🏼 Are you leveraging Salesloft’s Zoom Phone integration for a global team? If so, I’d love to hear from you in the comments. What has your experience been? Did you opt for Zoom Phone over another dialer? How would you rate the quality of calls? Call connectivity? I’m working with a customer who has global BDR teams and are exploring options for their sellers in India, specifically, but also have a sellers throughout the US, EMEA, and APAC. 

Is it possible for a focal point in SalesSoft to reuse a digital Sales’s cadence built from another sales in previous time? 

Something triggered an unknown-to-me automation rule and removed several contacts from their cadences. Can I download the CRM logs from that date to figure out which ones were affected?

I work within Sales Operations. We deal with Analytics a lot.What are your most valuable Salesloft reports for your business?Recently we have been trying to look at the number of conversations that our Sales Reps record in Conversations vs the total external meetings they have to find the ratio. 

Hi All, How do you motivate your SDRs to actively engage in and become obsessed with analysing cadence performance in SalesLoft?I'm looking for strategies or best practices that have worked for others to encourage our SDRs to take ownership of their outreach and improve their results through data-driven insights.

Sara here, Enterprise Customer Manager going on 4 years here at Salesloft.  As we know cadences are those structured touchpoints designed to engage prospects and move them through the sales funnel. We often share with customers that effective sales cadence integrates different communication channels and timing and we drive the importance of completed steps when they are due. *It’s hard to know if a cadence is being effective or at what points are we converting when the Day 3 step happens 2 weeks after it was supposed to  We have found there are two ways to help reps stay on tasks: Set a daily goal/target for how many people reps are adding to a cadence every day. If reps start to add 100s of people every day to a cadence, completing those and future steps on time is going to be challenging and ultimately leave you with reps feeling overwhelmed. Good starting place - adding 15 to 25 people per day  As managers, keep an eye on their due/overdue tasks. There are a couple of places where y

I love discovering new tips and tricks in Salesloft, so I’m curious if anyone has some great workarounds to share?One of my favorites is inserting the current day using the time dynamic field “{{n_business_days_from_now}}".Did you know you can change the "n" to "0" to insert the current day? It's an awesome way to add a bit more personalization to your emails by including the current date automatically. 🔥 What are some of your favorite tricks or workarounds? I’d love to hear them!

Hey everyone!We've recently started leveraging Salesloft's Scheduled Import feature, and it's been a game-changer for our sales and marketing teams. I wanted to share our experience and hear how others are using this feature. Here’s a breakdown of what we’ve been doing:Breaking Silos Between Marketing and Sales: Our Marketing team has been running special direct mail campaigns with Sendoso. Once these mailers are delivered, our sales team identifies contacts with a status of 'Delivered' in a Salesforce Report. We use the Scheduled Import feature to automatically import these contacts into Salesloft, placing them right into a tailored cadence. Each cadence is designed specifically for the direct mail campaigns, starting with an automated email that provides immediate follow-up. This process ensures that our marketing efforts directly feed into our sales outreach, fostering better collaboration and efficiency between the two teams. Increased Salesloft Utilization: By automating the impor

What playbooks has everyone seen the most impact on their business? Any tips and tricks that have improved your engagement rates?

I use scheduled imports in order to fire off cadences at different points in the life of a open renewal opportunity. The importer breaks if the first row of the SFDC report is missing a sold to contact, which is the ID it is looking for a person. Its fine if that row errors out, but I still need the rest of the report to fire. This is only an issue if the first row fails. If row 1 is fine and row 2 fails, it still works.Is this working as intended? Would love to be able to work around this.

I’m Jackie, I’ve been with Salesloft for 6 years and I’m a Senior Customer Success Manager on our Commercial team in EMEA!  Every account I speak with tells me the same thing - how can we give our reps time back or make them more efficient?  If you haven’t yet enabled Plays, this is the place to get convinced. Let’s start with what they are: Plays generate tasks based on the activities captured in Salesloft. It’s a great way to help surface the right actions at exactly the right time within Rhythm.  Here are the top 3 plays I recommend enabling to get started:Meeting reminder play - reduce no shows  Meeting Follow Up Play - look sharp & build trust  Vidyard 50% video watched - convert opportunities with this buyer engagement alertI’m curious to know… What plays have you enabled? And what new plays do you want to test out to help your reps capture people at the right time?
