Get Ahead of the Competition with Salesforce Lightning

If we keep settling for ‘Good’ we would never discover the ‘Great’. ‘Good enough’ is a dangerous mind set which can limit your growth and waste the potential. Same is true for your CRM, if today, you feel like you’re happy doing things on MS Excel, you’re missing the vision to grow.
As a business leader and a manager, we need to look far into the future and prepare for the long term, if we continue to settle for less, we will keep getting less, be it less growth, less returns or less productivity.
Salesforce, is the world’s # 1 CRM platform, because the team doesn’t settle for ‘good enough’ but instead they keep innovating and challenging the limits, this has not only made Salesforce the leader in the CRM space but also the fastest growing tech company in the world. Let me tell you something about Salesforce Lightning, it is the most powerful Salesforce YET.
Salesforce Lightning is the latest evolution of the platform and will change the way your organization uses Salesforce, for the better. With each release, your Salesforce instance will gain new Lightning-specific functionality. Overall, the new user experience enables:
- Business users to be more productive with the intuitive UI.
- Admins to build applications without development support.
- Developers to save time and reuse code across Lightning components.
Moving to Lightning is like getting ready for the tournament finals. It takes preparation, training and perseverance, but it’ll all be worth it when you log into Lightning.
According to Salesforce customers who have adopted Lightning have already experienced a 41% increase in productivity. They’re able to bring in more leads, close deals faster and increase conversions.
The Way Forward:
Making the transition to Lightning requires a well thought out plan. Before getting started, it’s important to understand the ins and outs of your Salesforce instance and your Lightning transition. The team leading the change should be able to answer the following questions:
- Platform: What currently exists within our Salesforce environment, including customizations and third-party applications?
- People: Who is using which features?
- Priorities: What needs to be moved over to the Lightning experience now and what can wait?
- Process: How can we leverage Lightning to ensure and improve adoption?
Even if you’re just considering these questions and don’t yet have all the answers, you’ll have a strong foundation to start planning for a successful transition.
