| Palm Software for Sales |
|
| Palm Software is a term that covers a wide range of programs developed for the Palm Operating System (OS) for handheld devices. The Palm OS was first released on a handheld device manufactured by US Robotics in early 1996. Almost immediately other developers started creating Palm Software programs for the platform. As more business users began using Palm devices the need grew for Palm Software that could provide vital business functions. |
|
| One primary need for mobile professionals is to have easy access to their customer information. Since salespeople make up a large percentage of the mobile professionals, Palm Software that helps manage sales can positively impact a companies revenue. |
|
| Basics for Palm Software |
|
| What makes a good Palm Software program? This question has a different answer for every Palm user. There are some basic guidelines you can follow when selecting new Palm Software. |
|
| First, the Palm Software program has to install on your device. The program cannot be too big to fit the memory of the device (most have 32 MB or more), or take up so much memory you do not have room for the other Palm Software you need to carry. Additionally, if the program is too large and unwieldy it may slow down your system. |
|
| Second, the Palm Software program has to support your Palm OS. Many newer Palm Software programs are designed to benefit from the newer operating systems. This can be a great benefit, unless your device is running an older Palm OS. In which case, your new Palm Software may not run at all on your device. |
|
| Third, synchronization with your desktop computer can be a great benefit. There are many Palm Software programs that install only on your handheld device and provide all interaction only through that platform. This can be a bit risky if you are working with vital information such as client data or sales information. If you lose or damage your device, that information may be lost. Synchronization with a desktop application, such as your Outlook, can be vital in backing up your data. It can also provide an easier interface for entering information. |
|
| Fourth, your new Palm Software needs to be easy to use. You should be able to easily access information, update files, and create new records without going through multiple screens and complex functions. The last thing you want to do is take extra time and be fumbling with your stylus while talking with a client. |
|
| Making Sales with Your Palm Software |
|
| Mobile sales professionals typically have two primary needs from their Palm Software: Contact Management and Sales Management. An effective Palm Software for sales will provide both in a simple to use format. The ability to work with, update, and create individual Contact and Company account records on your mobile device are vital Contact Management actions. Of primary importance for Sales Management is being able to track each opportunity you have with your customers and take them with you on your Palm device. |
