Nearly Half of All Sales Simplicity Software 2008 Sales Are From Builders Replacing Inadequate Sales/CRM Systems

“Buyers’ Remorse” Rules the Sales, CRM and Marketing Sector for Home Builders Who Didn’t Choose Sales Simplicity

Sales Simplicity Software, the widely acknowledged North American leader in Sales Automation, CRM, Marketing and Reporting tools for home builders, today announced that more than 45% of its 2008 sales were to builders who elected to remove an inadequate Sales/CRM system and replace it with Sales Simplicity.

“Given the substantial costs and time needed to tear out an older system and implement Sales Simplicity,” said Sales Simplicity’s Barry Forbes, “this surge in ‘replacement sales’ underscores the degree of the builders’ pain and dissatisfaction with competing Sales/CRM systems that just don’t pass muster.”

Sales Simplicity, a multiple Constructech Gold Award winner, is renowned industry-wide for its quick start-up and ease of use. One application handles everything – sales, e-lead management, CRM, inventory selections, design center, contracts and addendums, marketing, reporting, and automated communications.

Indeed, new builder clients credit Sales Simplicity Software with offering all the necessary front-office tools in a single, integrated application, all reading from a single SQL database. There are no confusing “bolted-on” modules for essential functionality, such as prospect management, e-leads and integrations, and therefore no punitive added-on “module charges.” Prospect, buyer, and homeowner records are available companywide to everyone who has permission to access the system. Moreover, all “scripted” tasks auto-populate and are “trackable” across the entire Sales Simplicity system with a single point of entry.

“This year, we have seen a remarkable number of conversions from competing Sales/CRM systems to Sales Simplicity Software,” said Forbes. “A surprising number of home builders quickly realize they have inadequate systems and tools in an extremely challenging marketplace. Conversely, the satisfaction level among Sales Simplicity users is the highest in the industry. We have the tools and builders are well aware of it.”
