Act on Accounts Faster: The New Crunchbase Salesforce Integration

In the throes of tightening budgets and widespread layoffs, sales teams are facing a near impossible challenge: close more deals, with less resources, in less time. In an effort to ease this burden, we’re rolling out a new, highly requested feature.

Introducing the new Salesforce integration feature. Now Pro and Enterprise users can sync accounts directly from Crunchbase to Salesforce, speeding up their prospecting workflow, and reducing time spent on manual data entry.

 

Bring the best of Crunchbase to Salesforce

With our new Salesforce integration, sales development representatives (SDRs) and account executives (AEs) can now: 

  • Go from research to outreach in a few clicks: Find accounts that meet your ideal customer profile (ICP) using Crunchbase search filters, or use our new profile experience to learn about a specific company. When you find accounts that meet your ICP, save them directly from Crunchbase to Salesforce.  
  • Focus on selling, not data entry: See which accounts are already in Salesforce and avoid record duplication. When you find and save a new account from Crunchbase to Salesforce, we’ll also save the basic company information you’ll need to personalize your outreach.
  • Own & track your accounts: With fierce competition among SDRs and AEs, sometimes the first challenge is claiming an account. Any account you save from Crunchbase to Salesforce will be under your name. We’ll also help you stay on top of all your accounts in Salesforce & email you when they’ve raised money.

“60% of my net new opportunities come from accounts I find on Crunchbase. Now, with the Salesforce integration, I get to save time doing less data entry, which means I can focus more on closing these opportunities.”

– Kyle O’Connor, Account Executive
