Angoss KnowledgeSEEKER® for Salesforce.com provides account managers, sales team managers and senior sales and C-level executives with the following capabilities:

• Lead Screener. The ability to apply predictive scores covering every lead, regardless of channel, for optimized territory coverage planning and lead management and prioritization.

“FundGUARD™ and ClaimGUARD™, our on demand offerings for the mutual fund and insurance industries, are already delivering high value to our clients, because we make it significantly easier for business users to unlock significant, actionable business value from their customer data” commented Angoss President Eric Apps. “KnowledgeSEEKER® for Salesforce.com takes these capabilities a significant step further and will help Salesforce.com users achieve their revenue growth targets more easily, while improving sales team productivity, performance and retention. This solution also provides Angoss a standardized and scalable platform to deliver “closed loop” sales analytics capabilities to our customers’ sales organizations across the Finance and ICT industries.”

Capabilities supplied on demand include strategic segmentation, predictive modeling, and analytical tools and models for customer and prospect profiling, response modeling, most profitable sales strategy, next offer and other key data mining driven outputs, all designed by business users for business users. These business value benefits are delivered for a per sales rep monthly subscription fee – eliminating the significant cost, complexity and implementation risk barriers to the use of advanced analytics to enable business performance improvement resulting from traditional statistical tools based implementations of advanced data mining capability.
