Console launches Console Sales, a sales trust accounting platform available to Console Cloud users via Marketplace. This add-on lets agents to track all business revenue—sales, property management, and other streams of income—in one place. It is priced at around a third of the average subscription cost of a dedicated sales CRM, making it a great option for agencies wanting to save money on their technology stack.
Console Sales is designed to simplify the sales process, and the number of apps and software subcriptions used to manage it. Agents can easily manage every stage of the sales cycle in Console Cloud, and takes advantage of its advanced trust accounting funcitonality. It handles expense management for things like vendor paid advertising, as well as contact management, contract tracking, and other features to help your team progress towards settlement.
Console Sales marks a signficiant upgrade from Console Cloud’s original sales trust accounting functionality. It allows agents to see all of the important information on the sales lifecycle on one screen and easily access detailed and accurate accounts of sale.
Key communications, receipts and contracts are all easy to log and share from the property profile page. With the new sales feature sitting directly within the Console Cloud platform, double handling and data loss will become a thing of the past. This means your entire agency can work from the same platform.
“Our research showed that agents using expensive and complex CRMs often only used a small proportion of the features,” says Matt McGown, Chief Product Officer at Console.
“We worked with the industry to define the most important features that sales and trust accounting professionals need. Then we used those features to create a simple, easy-to-use add-on that sales agents could pick up and run with.”
Based on real-life feedback from agents, the core functionality of Console Sales includes a stack of the most-used features from more complex and expensive sales CRMs—without the extra noise of features you’ll never touch.
The new Console Sales features allows agents to:
As of 1 August 2020, these new and existing sales-specific features in Console Sales will cost a flat $150/mth to add to your subscription—around one third of the cost of most real estate sales-specific software.
If you would like to add Console Sales to your subscription, head to the Marketplace tab in Console Cloud on or after August 1 and activate it from the panel. Please note that only administrators can make this change.
Activating Console Sales means you agree to add the flat $150/mth fee to your existing Console Cloud subscription costs. If you'd prefer to keep paying for a separate sales CRM, or you don’t need a sales CRM: no action is required.
