With
Charlie Wood's Spanning Salesforce sales
professionals can subscribe to personalized, secure RSS feeds and keep on
top of theri most important information-including leads, opportunities,
contacts, activities, and documents-on your PC, Mac, or mobile device.
Here's the Salesforce.com AppExchange listing and Charlie gives a
great introduction to how
it all works here.
You need an RSS reader that supports
secure feeds. For Outlook users Spanning Partners recommends Attensa for
Outlook 1.1 (thanks Charlie) Spanning Salesforce lets you track your new and
updated information in Salesforce.com using RSS using RSS. And since Spanning
Salesforce doesn't require adminsistrative privleges, any individual can sign
up.
When information
is added or changed in your Salesforce.com account, you'll see it reflected in
your Spanning Salesforce feeds. If a new lead is assigned to you, you'll see it
in the My Unread Leads feed. As leads become opportunities, you'll be able to
track changes in your pipeline. If you're responsible for customer support,
you'll be notified of case and escalation assignments.
Plus, as new documents are
uploaded you'll get not only a notification but also the ability to download
any new document with one click. In fact, with your RSS reader properly
configured, new documents will be automatically downloaded as they become
available.
