A GUIDE TO SALESFORCE LIGHTNING KNOWLEDGE

Salesforce Lightning Knowledge

Salesforce lightning knowledge gives the ultimate support tool to agents, customers, partners, and website visitors the ultimate support tool. A knowledge base is simply a collection of articles with relevant information about the products and services, to inspire a self-service model for customers to solve their own queries, which leads to case deflection. It is now known to all that Salesforce Lightning has established its presence everywhere, so Salesforce Knowledge is no exception. In this blog, CloudVandana will let the visitors know the basics of Lightning Knowledge so that users can plan when they are migrating from classic or rolling things out for the first time. Salesforce Lightning Knowledge All internal users with reading permissions can read knowledge articles. But to publish, archive, delete, and manage articles, users need additional permissions. If users have been using Knowledge for a while in Salesforce Classic, then they can use Lightning Knowledge Migration Tool to convert the Classic Knowledge articles into Lightning.   Licensing The licensing requirements for knowledge depend on the edition of Salesforce. With few essentials and unlimited editions, Lightning Knowledge is available as a part of Service Cloud for no additional cost. For Professional, Enterprise, Performance, and Developer editions,  Lightning Knowledge does have an additional cost associated.  Access Considerations The data of Lightning Knowledge is different from the classic knowledge, so the access is also different. In lightning knowledge, all articles are on a single Salesforce object. This object is called Knowledge. Users can read, create, edit, and delete articles based on their knowledge permissions. But special lightning Knowledge User Permissions primarily focus on Publishing, Archiving, And translating.  The Knowledge Lifecycle The knowledge Lifecycle is cyclical and stresses continuous improvements to content. To support the Knowledge Lifecycle, Lightning Knowledge has introduced version control. Now every article will have a version number, and whenever the user needs to make changes to a published article, the user can edit it as a new version and then republish it.  Articles Distribution Once the articles are published, users can share them with a huge audience through various channels. The audience is segmented into 4 groups.  The internal channel is for internal users only. This type of content includes company policies, onboards, and internal Salesforce process documentation.  Partner shares the content with partner licensed users within a Partner Community. This content includes sales process, guidelines, tips, and tricks for selling, or product updates.  Customer channel is one of the most important channels as it is critical for customer self-service and case deflection. It is ideal for customer-facing FAQs, troubleshooting articles, and step-by-step guides.  The public channel exposes the knowledge content to guest users. There are Salesforce AppExchange Apps that enable audiences to expose public knowledge articles on non-Salesforce pages.  Approval Processes An approval process can be created for articles. This is invaluable for controlling the published content, especially, if the content needs to be screened for customer-facing articles. The approval process for knowledge articles works more or less like any other article, but there are a few approval actions that are distinctive to knowledge- Knowledge Actions. Features Rating Rating is an important feature of Salesforce knowledge. Rating lets the users rate the content. In Salesforce Classic, the rating system was a 1-5 star rating, but in Salesforce Lightning Knowledge, it is a thumbs-up or thumbs-down rating system. These voting buttons can be added or removed from pages as needed so the author can control who can vote on what article. For Lightning Pages, the Article Thumb Vote component provides voting options to the users. Data Categories One of the important features of Salesforce Knowledge is Data Categories and Data Category Groups. These are two major functions-article organization and article access. Data categories allow the user to organize the article content in a hierarchical way. They can be grouped into Data Category Groups.  Topics Adding topics lets the user easily classify them based on their content and provides easier searching within the knowledge base. Topics are generally different from Data Categories as they don’t drive article access in any way, and they are not hierarchical.  So this was an overview of Salesforce Knowledge.

Complaints Too many complaints are always a bad sign.

6 IDEAS FOR A SMALL BUSINESS EXPANSION WITH OUTSOURCING

Outsourcing

Outsourcing or Staff Augmentation is a business practice in which a company or organization hires a third party to perform tasks, handle organizational operations, or provide service for the company. Organizations can outsource other types of work as well, including manufacturing processes, human resources tasks, and financial functions. Small businesses sometimes face different challenges and they need to find out new ways to solve those problems. One of the important problems is hiring-related issues. So companies can solve these problems by simply outsourcing where specific tasks or projects can be done by the augmented staff or even outsourcing the entire department. Not only small businesses but also large businesses can be benefited from outsourcing. Finding the right contractor for the organization has become much cheaper and easier than before. In this article CloudVandana, a registered Salesforce consultancy will describe the key ideas of outsourcing for business expansion.  Outsourcing Implementation 1. Cost-Effectiveness One of the most important factors of running any business is monetary resources. Outsourcing saves money for the organization. Companies can get the full job done as per requirement at a lower cost and better quality. The quality of the services provided is high thereby ensuring that low-cost does not mean low-quality. Organizations can save money by paying the contractor for the actual amount of work done by them, by the hour, or by the project. Organizations don’t need to waste money on full-time employees without any project. The money that an organization would normally spend on a full-time employee can be invested in other areas to enhance business growth.  2. Flexible And Smooth Scaling Process Companies with outsourcing are better prepared to adjust to different situations. They can expand or shrink their business process as per requirements. It not only helps the business to grow but also prevents confusion and barrier in the business process and scaling. Companies can easily offload the extra work to an outside contractor rather than searching for new employees and eliminate the time taking onboarding process related to new hires. On the other hand, when the workload is less, companies can anytime discontinue the contract with the outsources. It is much easier than to get into the process of firing the workers.  3. Enhance The Business Efficiency When companies outsource their business needs to an outsourcing or augmentation partner like CloudVandana, they bring years of experience in business practices and expertise in delivering complex business solutions. In such ways, organizations can do the job better with their years of knowledge and expertise. This outsourcing process leads to increased productivity and business enhancement. 4. Access To Skilled Resources With the adoption of the outsourcing process, companies do not need to invest in the hiring and training processes. The outsourced employees are well trained and highly skilled in the corresponding fields. So they can start immediately without any training program. Outsourcing opens up a company towards the global labor market. This means companies will have a wide range of options and chances to hire top-class talent for the business needs.  5. Gaining Access To Key Technologies And Infrastructure Outsourcing can remove the need for investment in infrastructure as the outsourcing partner takes over the responsibility of the business processes. A reliable IT infrastructure can be very expensive if the organization plans to work with new groundbreaking technologies and an IT team to support the process. Contractors can use their own infrastructure and share it with the organization. For most small companies, this is the only way to utilize cutting-edge software and other technologies to enhance the business process significantly. This is effective not for IT support but for other digital resources, like customer data, or cloud storage memory.  6. Chance To Focus On Core Business The biggest benefit of outsourcing is that companies can focus on their core business to boost it when they have no agitation regarding business operation. Small business owners and employees are often overstretched, as side tasks draw too much attention away from their core business. So outsourcing is the greatest way to free up the schedule from unnecessary distractions and enable the employees to do their core tasks.  Are you looking for a Salesforce Contractor to make the Salesforce process of your organization seamless?

SALESFORCE AUTOMATION AT A GLANCE

Salesforce Automation

Salesforce Automation (SFA)refers to software apps for sales management. Salesforce provides multiple tools to automate the organization’s repetitive business processes, Approvals, Process Builder, Workflow, and Flow Builder. SFA provides automated workflows that create an efficient Sales process to manage business processes, sales forecasts, and team performance.  Salesforce automation is used by sales professionals. The main features of the Salesforce automation system are contact management, opportunity management, email integration, and task management.  Contact management software lets the marketers track communication with customers, building up a complete history of interactions, and sales activities. Contact management systems usually include Task Management software that lets the marketers create tasks, reminders, to follow up the sales leads.  Pipeline management software provides sales lead tracking in every stage of the customer journey. It lets the marketer track each sale opportunity through the pipeline.  SFA is usually a part of a customer relationship management system(CRM) that automatically records all the stages in a sales process. This might include phone calls, emails, and meetings.  Task Management With the help of SFA task management, when a marketer creates a task or reminder in the customer’s account it integrates with the calendar. So when the marketer opens the task all the customer’s data and past communications are there in front of you. Once the task is completed, it is automatically included in the account record.  Team Collaboration Salesforce automation has a great impact on team collaboration. Through this process, multiple registered users can access and edit a customers’ account at any time, creating a central hub for the business process. This is very helpful for remote workers. Sales professionals can synchronize the data as everything is updated in real-time.  Cloud App Integration The automation process has opened up many opportunities for small businesses. Cloud integration lets the marketers automate the flow of data between the different systems. It increases efficiency and productivity. Through this platform, marketers not only can automate the sales process but also can create workflows for other manual processes.  SFA Customization Salesforce automation process can be customized as per the industry requirements. It is optimized for any device.  Difference Between Salesforce Automation And CRM Though the main target of both systems is almost the same, there are some differences between Salesforce Automation and Salesforce CRM. 1. Salesforce CRM is built with a focus on customer satisfaction and customer retention. It is designed to nurture the leads throughout the sales process to maintain long-term relationships.  Salesforce CRM manages the relationships between consumers and businesses by gathering client data from various forms of customer interactions(phone, email, social media, etc). By analyzing these centralized data, sales and marketing teams can customize the offering as per the client’s needs.  2. Salesforce automation focuses on the sales process. It makes the process as efficient and transparent as possible. SFA software generally consists of potential sales management and pipeline management tools. So it provides a clear picture of leads, prospects, present sales, and past sales history of the sales representatives.  CRM is considered as the post-sales software which is used to retain and satisfy existing customers. CRM systems are usually an integrated solution, by including additional features such as SFA, integrations, and marketing automation.  Are you looking for a customized Salesforce solution?

5 STEPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL PARDOT IMPLEMENTATION

Pardot

Pardot or marketing automation is a very important business process in today’s digital world. Pardot is essential for targeted campaigns so that the best leads can be earned and the sales team can draw the maximum revenue and better ROI. Pardot customers can close the deals faster, increase marketing productivity, and a noticeable increase in website leads. Today, in this article, CloudVandana is sharing 5 important steps of Pardot implementation.  1.  Technical Setup The technical setup is very important for any implementation. So help from Webmaster and IT admin team is very much needed. They will be responsible for implementing the tracking code on the website, the creation of the vanity tracker domain, and implementing email authentication. A Pardot implementation is a collaborative project. So inputs from the Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations team are highly appreciated. Salesforce makes the integration a lot easier. Users would need the admin’s help to set up the Pardot app on Salesforce, map the lead and contact fields, add necessary fields and buttons to show Pardot data in Salesforce, and assign permissions to the right people.   2. Journey Map Planning A proper journey map planning should be there before the Pardot implementation. If a user is migrating from one system to another, and a time crunch is there, the user has to make sure that the backups are taken in Pardot. If the user needs to schedule an email campaign or send it right away, the user needs to be sure to prioritize and get them set up right away. Defining steps according to the priority of the Sales and Marketing team is an essential part of a smooth implementation.  3. Database And Assets Team members’ collaboration is very much needed to gather case studies, images, guides, content files, etc. These should be arranged in a nice and organized manner so that users can replicate the same system within Pardot to keep them organized. Hosting files within Pardot is essential. Without this feature, users can’t take advantage of tracking and campaign reporting available within Pardot and Salesforce.  4. Setup Integrations Pardot has a list of connectors that users can integrate very easily with the account.  Even if the connector is not listed, Pardot provides an API that can help in connecting with a lot of third-party applications so that users never have to compromise on anything. Testing the functionality of the implementation comes after that. The sales team should check if they are receiving the assignment notifications and the correct prospect information synced from Pardot. The marketing team should check the tracking of the website and the operations team should confirm the email campaign activities.  5. Import Pardot Prospects This is considered the last stage of the implementation. In this stage, the Pardot account will start functioning in the desirable way. This final step is followed by prospects. Admins had already segmented the database in an organized way in the beginning. So at this stage, that database should be imported into Pardot. Users should map fields and add them to the corresponding lists in Pardot. Now the implementation process is over and Pardot is ready for all necessary campaigning.  Though the implementation process is quite easy it is always advisable to hire a Salesforce Consultant to make the process efficient and seamless. A minor error can ruin all your efforts. So technically proficient resources of CloudVandana can always help you to make the process hassle-free. They can advise you to align marketing strategies with automation needs so that you can meet your marketing KPIs.
