Welcome to Conquer - The Sales Community

We're launching something new, welcome!

Hey 👋🏻

​Firstly, thanks for joining us at Conquer Sales! Welcome and it's awesome that you did!

​Our 1st (and so far only) meetup we had was small and cozy, sitting around a pot of coffee, presenting ourselves and talking sales (and all the challenges). Seems we'll grow nicely from that!

​For now, we'll focus on events and build from there.

​Our next event is in a few days, don't forget to register (and join us).

​Quality sales stuff from around LinkedIn:

​The Sales Tool Room

​Focus on Social Selling Tools

​Whether you’re a seasoned sales rep or a founder juggling multiple hats, having the right tools in your arsenal can make all the difference.

​Today, we’re going to compare three such gems: Folk, Breakcold, and Surfe. Each one brings something unique to the table, so let's find out which one will be your next sales sidekick.

​First up, we have Folk.

​Imagine Folk as the Marie Kondo of CRMs, that super organised friend who’s got everything in a neat little spreadsheet. Folk is essentially a CRM on steroids, tailored for social selling. It's like having a personal assistant who remembers every interaction you've had with your contacts, helping you build stronger relationships.

Key Features:

  • ​List building for all your needs (Pipeline, Influencers, Community, Investors...)

  • ​Great chrome extension to extract prospect profiles from LinkedIn

  • ​Integrated bulk email or sequences capability

  • ​AI to help you find out more about your prospects such as icebreakers, their email, etc...

  • ​Easy integration with your favourite tools through Zapier

Best for: Startups, solopreneurs, small companies who love keeping things organised and want a streamlined way to manage relationships without the hassle of a traditional CRM.

​Next, let's talk about Breakcold.

​If Folk is your organised friend, Breakcold is the charismatic networker at a party who effortlessly breaks the ice; your virtual wingman. It helps you break the ice and keeps the conversation flowing, so you’re never left awkwardly sipping your drink in the corner.

​This tool is all about helping you initiate and maintain conversations with prospects, on all channels leveraging the power of social media.

Key Features:

  • ​Grab your prospects from any social channel... be where your prospects are!

  • ​Automated follow-ups

  • ​Social media engagement tracking

Best for: Sales reps who want to engage with prospects on social media platforms and need a bit of help to keep the conversation going.

​The Founder tells me they'll be synchronising with Hubspot soon.

​Last but not least, we have Surfe. This tool is like the tech-savvy friend who always has the latest gadgets. Surfe excels in integrating your CRM seamlessly with LinkedIn, making your social selling efforts smooth and efficient.

Key Features:

  • ​Direct LinkedIn integration with your CRM such as Hubspot, Salesforce or Pipedrive

  • ​You have your CRM in LinkedIn

  • ​Real-time data sync

  • ​Enhanced contact management

Best for: Anyone who lives on LinkedIn and wants a tool that feels like an extension of the platform.

The Verdict

​So, which tool should you pick? Well, it depends on your needs:

  • Choose Folk if you want a no-nonsense CRM that keeps your contacts and conversations tidy.

  • Go with Breakcold if you need help breaking the ice and keeping those social media conversations alive.

  • Opt for Surfe if you’re a LinkedIn aficionado looking for seamless integration and top-notch efficiency.

​In the end, all three tools can significantly boost your social selling game. So, pick the one that resonates with your style and start selling like a pro!

​Remember, sales isn't just about tools, it's about relationships. These tools are here to help you build and maintain those relationships more effectively. Happy selling!

​Have a great week and see you at the next meetup!!
