Salesforce has enhanced its Sales Cloud Partner Relationship Management (PRM) service with three new tools.
The first new tool, called Einstein Analytics, helps businesses identify and prioritise leads using AI-driven insights. Through its powerful data mining capabilities, the software uses past lead and opportunity performance to provide predictive recommendations for the future.

Partners, for example, can break down an aggregate report on quarterly sales into the region, state or product to distribute resources appropriately for the next quarter.
The last tool is Quip for Salesforce enhances real-time collaboration between vendor and partners. Using Quip productivity workspaces, companies can actively align with vendors on yearly business plans, KPIs, co-selling activities, as well as proposals and quotes, all while connected with their CRM.
