A New Season, New Sales and Social Media Strategies with Jigsaw's September Webinar Series
SAN MATEO, CA - September 11, 2008 - As part of its free informational webinar series on best practices in data management, Jigsaw (www.jigsaw.com), a leading provider of business information and data services that uniquely leverages user-generated content contributed by its global membership, will present two webinars this month: "There is a Silver Bullet in Sales" Wednesday, September 17, 2008 10:00am PDT/ 1:00pm EDT and "Tomorrow's Technology, Today's Results: Boost Your Business with Social Media and CRM" Wednesday, September 24, 2008 at 10:00am PDT/ 1:00pm EDT.
There is a Silver Bullet in Sales
Sales professionals have long been told that there is no silver bullet in selling. However, timing-getting in front of the right person at exactly the right time-can make all the difference. Research shows the average sales person is five times more likely to make a sale when they have the right timing.
In the latest Jigsaw webinar Craig Elias, creator of Trigger Event Selling and contributor to the bestselling book, Masters of Sales, will show participants how "triggered events" that jump-start the buying process can convert prospective buyers. Leveraging triggers and timing-along with Jigsaw's comprehensive database of business contact information-helps increase close ratios, shorten sales cycles, and improve success of campaigns overall.

Tomorrow's Technology, Today's Results: Boost Your Business with Social Media and CRM
The power of combining CRM and social media technologies has been discussed by pundits for years, but for many businesses, the tactical benefits have been difficult to understand. In this Jigsaw webinar, participants will examine the concrete benefits of social technologies and how companies can leverage these relationship-building tools and technology networks to assist sales performance, strengthen customer loyalty, and allow small businesses to "out-relationship" their bigger and more established competitors.
When users register, they will also receive InsideCRM's Marketing Automation Comparison Guide, which offers an at-a-glance view of the features and pricing of the dozen most popular marketing automation companies.
Webinar participants will learn:
- How to build loyalty by facilitating customer conversations and when to join in
- How smart businesses are leveraging multiple social networking tools for a unique view of their customers
- Which social media tools deserve attention and which have yet to mature
