A sales pipeline is a simple, graphic overview of where your sales are, and where you can expect them to be at the end of a given period. Used properly, it is both an at-a-glance snapshot of current opportunities and a predictive tool that can help you move forward effectively.
Like all sales tools, a pipeline is only as good as the data that’s being fed into it. Useful analysis requires looking beyond the bottom line at a range of different factors, including geographic and demographic realities for each of your sales territories.
That’s where MapBusinessOnline comes in. MapBusinessOnline is a cloud-based data-mapping platform that can be used to develop more accurate sales pipeline visualizations based on your business data.
Sales pipeline mapping with MapBusinessOnline is easy and affordable. Import business data from your normal management system and view it against accurate, up-to-date maps with demographic information, adding vital context that shows you where your team is most effective and where additional resources are necessary to meet and exceed your desired quotas.
From there, MapBusinessOnline lets you create custom sales territories that ensure your staff is evenly distributed and positioned where they will have the most impact. Map Business Online even lets you share data among team members, leading to improved collaboration and ultimately more sales.
Other MapBusinessOnline features for your salesforce include:
Working with MapBusinessOnline is easy and intuitive – the cloud-based platform integrates easily with Salesforce, QuickBooks and other software, allowing you to seamlessly share your most recent data between applications.
There are clear benefits to visualizing any sales pipeline with MapBusinessOnline. As a graphic tool, it brings to light demographic insights that are easy to miss when looking exclusively at raw data. MapBusinessOnline shows you where your team is and where it needs to be. It also shows you who your current customers are and where the best future prospects might be hiding. When you visualize this information, you can make informed decisions and allocate resources in a more strategic manner.

"This software has been tremendously helpful in mapping out my company’s sales territories map. I have researched many other products, but no one came close to the ease of use of data customization options MapBusinessOnline provides. Also, their maps are extremely accurate and pleasing to the eye. Sales projections and territory expansions can be easily mapped out with this software. Most importantly, they provide free training and a vast number of video guides that have been extremely helpful. It is apparent that this company cares about their product and their customers. Really happy with it."

"I have had the pleasure of using MapBusinessOnline for the past 5 years and it is an excellent and affordable tool for my clients. I am a franchise consultant, and many of my clients are just starting to get into franchising. The first main question many of them have is they don’t know the demographics around their current location, so they don’t know how to create territories for their franchisees. I am able to easily utilize MapBusinessOnline to draw a prototype territory around their existing location, do a deep dive into the many different demographics that MapBusinessOnline offers, and help the client determine the basics of their new territories, including mileage, population, household count, purchasing habits and age distributions. This tool has been so helpful that many of our clients obtain their own accounts as they begin to sell franchises and grow their business. Thank you, MapBusinessOnline, for providing such a helpful tool that is affordable and easy to use!"
