Visits Scheduling made easy
This sophisticated calendar feature is designed to optimize the scheduling of your field team's visits. This innovative tool enables both managers and field workers to effortlessly coordinate customer visits across web and mobile platforms, ensuring timely and efficient service.
Our new feature provides detailed reports that offer insights into your field team's productivity. These reports empower managers to track performance and make informed, data-driven decisions, enhancing the overall effectiveness of customer engagements.
FieldPro Connect
This is our brand new retailer app, which allows brands and distributors to create a direct relationship with their retailers, offering speed and convenience. Here are some key features retailers enjoy with the app:
- Direct Ordering: retailers can place orders directly through the app instead of having to call or waiting for a sales rep visit. Orders can then be managed by distributors directly on a dedicated portal, following their fulfillment.
- Product Notifications: keep your retailers informed about new and upcoming product releases, ensuring they are always up-to-date with your offerings. Notify them about seasonal orders and promotions, allowing them to plan ahead and place timely orders.
- Self Merchandising: retailers can scan shelves and report product presence so brands can better monitor in trade execution without having to do manual retail audits and send field teams on the ground.
- Leveraging new tools such as FieldPro Connect can significantly enhance field force efficiency, as discussed in our field force effectiveness strategies.
Improved Customer Visit Flow
We've redesigned the customer visit process in FieldPro to enhance intuitiveness and efficiency. Now, users can delve into customer details before logging activities, ensuring a thorough understanding of the client's needs and context. This preparatory step streamlines subsequent data entry and activity recording.
Additionally, FieldPro now allows starting visits independently of predefined workflows, enabling precise tracking of the time spent at each customer location. This flexibility ensures accurate time management and offers a tailored approach to each client interaction, improving overall service quality.
Optimized Territory Loading
We are excited to announce that we have made significant enhancements to our territory loading feature, resulting in faster and more efficient data retrieval.
With these improvements, you can now load your territories quickly and effortlessly, saving you valuable time that can be better spent on your core field sales activities.
Satellite View
FieldPro now offers an enhanced mapping experience with the addition of a satellite view option alongside the default map view. This new feature allows for an improved visualization of territories and farm polygons, providing a more detailed and realistic perspective of the land you manage.
Polygons Mapping
Utilize your mobile device to walk a field's perimeter or manually draw polygons on a mobile / web map, offering an accuracy leap beyond traditional GPS points. This feature accurately captures the unique contours of each farm, enhancing your operational insights.
Link these detailed polygons to individual farmer profiles, enabling a holistic view of all associated land areas. Analyze key metrics like area and perimeter, enriching your understanding and management of every farm in your network, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in your agricultural operations.
FieldPro Detect
We're excited to unveil FieldPro's AI-driven Instant Product Detection, a cutting-edge feature that transforms the way you analyze key metrics like position, price, share, competitors, and stock levels. This AI-powered tool provides a comprehensive overview, enhancing your market analysis and strategic planning.
Field users can now instantly scan shelves and receive immediate feedback on product presence, placement, and more, directly on their devices. This innovation not only boosts efficiency but also significantly enhances transparency in field operations, offering real-time insights that empower informed decision-making.
Duplicate an activity report
This enhancement simplifies the reporting process for mobile users. Now, they can duplicate the values from a previous activity report, editing it as needed, rather than beginning anew. This streamlines data entry, significantly reducing the time spent on documenting activities.
This new functionality is a game-changer for mobile users, allowing them to focus more on their field tasks and less on administrative duties. By enabling quick modifications to existing reports, we ensure that users can maintain accurate and up-to-date records with minimal effort.
Activity Guide
We've recently launched an innovative dashboard feature that enriches the beginning of any activity, offering field workers crucial guidance and insights right at the customer's location. This intuitive tool provides pertinent information at their fingertips, enabling them to conduct thorough and informed visits.
By integrating these tailored dashboards, field workers gain immediate access to relevant customer insights, enhancing their preparedness and the quality of their interactions. This feature is designed to empower field teams, ensuring they have all the necessary data to make each customer visit as productive and insightful as possible.
