Holistic view of customer interactions with your business

But why is event tracking even important for sales teams? By tracking your website visitors, you get a visual idea of what leads are looking at on your website, where they are in the buying journey and how likely they are to purchase your services. Identifying leads’ buying intentions helps businesses communicate better with them by enabling sales reps to sell with context.

But, marketing automation software like Freshmarketer have the capability to intelligently track activity by user, and chronologically arrange their activity in a timeline to the relevant record in the software. So you can track events and manage your sales in one place.
