Balancing act between decentralized requirements and central overview

In increasingly dynamic markets, sales teams must be optimally supported in order to be able to focus on their core objective - generating sales. Appropriate planning and forecasting solutions can pave the way for this in terms of systems and processes. However, finding the right balance between central requirements and regional needs is a challenge, especially for globally positioned companies.  

Learn how BASF Agricultural Solutions harmonizes sales planning and forecasting processes for its sales force in 70 countries together with celver. All this on the basis of Board's cloud platform.

In our BASF Backstage, we discuss how:

  • a uniform basis for global sales management can be created
  • sales, revenues, prices and conditions can be planned in line with market conditions
  • Sales employees can create their own views for individual evaluations from the global, consolidated overview
  • Sales plans and targets can be efficiently coordinated with workflow support
  • Existing supply chain systems and data from Salesforce for sales control can be seamlessly integrated into planning

Get your own picture and learn which best practices can be derived for sales planning and a global roll-out. Watch the free webinar on demand now.
