Conditional highlights within a pipeline review can help identify which deals are missing information, like MEDDIC fields. Within the same view, you can enable reps to clear their pipeline of missing information in minutes.
Scratchpad is a fan favorite here at Sendoso. It was actually our AEs and frontline sales managers who organically adopted it initially, and I was elated they were so enthusiastic about a tool that helps them keep pipeline/notes clean in Salesforce. We've since expanded this to any internal group that manages/owns records in SFDC, including CSM, Account Management, Onboarding, etc. Scratchpad has been a big boost in getting some newer less SFDC-savvy teams using CRM.
I would highly recommend Scratchpad. It is a game-changer. Pipeline hygiene was a huge issue at my org. With Scratchpad it is now no longer an issue. The support is amazing, the team leads training, and the new features that are launching are always relevant!
From a RevOps perspective, Scratchpad drives adoption. It's super easy to create templates for things I want to capture. There are no vendors or platforms similar or do the same things with the ease and speed.
Scratchpad helps us move opportunities through the pipeline way more efficiently and effectively and in a friendlier way than AE’s were previously trying to do with just Salesforce. For them, Scratchpad is actually fun to use which makes them want to move their deals through the pipeline. If Scratchpad were removed, I think people would legitimately be upset. This is how salespeople will interact with Salesforce in the future at nearly every single company.
I brought Scratchpad in after seeing folks talk about it on LinkedIn. It was easy to set up and now we're paying for it across our entire team. Scratchpad is great for adding information off any page using the command+J function. Forecasting 1:1s with reps by pulling up reports and also using command+J function to edit core fields (i.e. Next Steps, etc.) is a huge benefit. Scratchpad provides in-line editing that's wider than what you get from Salesforce's List View. You can easily create and share templates to the team as well as creating notes from a Google Calendar event.
Good ops teams should be figuring out how to make it easier for salespeople to sell and enablement is about providing the training, guidance, and coaching to make sales teams really effective. When you have an ops team and an enablement team that have sold before and have had any element of empathy for salespeople, it’s a no-brainer to buy Scratchpad.
