Use Case

As a newly appointed selling specialist at Ursa Major Solar (UMS), you are entrusted with creating and updating records in alignment with the UMS sales framework. Review the sales process and related notes, then start reviewing the deals below. The sales process is avilable in the Guided Path when using the UMS custom app in your Salesforce instance.


UMS Sales Process
Stage Name Guidance
Introduction

  • Record key details for "BANT" fields. This information may be in the Description field on a deal record.

    • Budget

    • Authority

    • Need

    • Timing

Needs Analysis

  • Record the date and details of the discovery meeting.

  • Document the prospect's energy needs and sustainability goals.
Solution Presentation

  • Request a demo using the "Request Demo" using the custom widget on the opportunity record called Request Demo. The Request Demo button is only available in the UMS custom app. You can tell if a demo has been requested because the checkbox for Demo Requested will be checked.

  • Include opportunity contact roles for Executive Sponsor and Technical Buyer.

Objection Handling

  • Log customer call(s).

  • Create a task to meet with the customer's technical lead.

  • Track objections and response(s).

  • Address objections/resolve doubts.
Proposal/Price Quote

  • Submit a Review Request using the custom widget called Request Review on the deal record. The Request Review button is only available in the UMS custom app. You can tell if a Review has been requested because the checkbox for Review Request Submitted will be checked.

  • Email a proposal to the client contact (you can send an email to anyone, with any attachment).

  • Add a finance team member to the deal team as a Pre-Sales Consultant, making sure they only have access to read the deal (Tawny Octavia).
Negotiation/Review

  • Indicate that any discounts are reviewed, using the Discount Range Discussed checkbox.
Closed Won

  • Keep the UMS sales leaders updated about the deal's progress by mentioning Alan Lin in Chatter.

  • Create a task for follow-up meeting.
Closed Lost

  • Update the Reason field.

  • Provide Reason Details to describe why the deal was lost.

Important notes about the UMS Sales Process are below.

  • Every opportunity must have an associated account.
  • Every opportunity must have at least one related contact; if the contact's role isn't known, indicate "other".
  • The name of new opportunities must start with the following format: Account - Amount. If the company has more than one division, the opportunity name should include the division, with the format Account Division - Amount. Do not add anything after the amount value; review the note below about naming convention details.
  • The close date must be in the future. (You can use any date you'd like; we won't check for a specific date.)
  • Opportunities should be associated with any relevant marketing campaigns whenever possible.
  • If a deal is in an incorrect stage, it is allowed for the record to be updated to a prior stage in the sales process.
Note

Note

Note: When configuring the name of an opportunity, pay special attention to the UMS sales process. Because currency notation can vary across geographic areas, only use whole numbers and do not add any non-numeric characters such as currency indicators ($, ¥, €) or radix characters (commas, periods, or spaces).



Business Requirements

LunarTech Industries Divisions Opportunities

Opportunities for each LunarTech division are at a different stage in the sales process. Unfortunately, some of the deal records haven’t been updated correctly. Find each record in the Salesforce org and update its stage accordingly if needed, referring to the UMS sales process. Review the sales process to determine the correct stage for each record based on the Guidance for Success and fields or related records for each deal. You may find it helpful to have the sales process open in another tab or written down for easy reference.

Note that this challenge relates to correctly adjusting the stage of the records indicated. Do not make changes to the records other than updating its stage accordingly if needed. If all of the requirements for a particular stage are complete, the opportunity should advance to the subsequent stage.

  • LunarTech Energy Solutions
  • LunarTech Aerospace Innovations
  • LunarTech Environmental Research
  • LunarTech Advanced Robotics

Update Opportunity Records After Customer Interactions

Next up for review are four deals that are known to be in the correct stage. Follow the UMS sales process to get these records up to date and ensure that everyone on the team can view what’s happening with the account. One record is marked as Closed Won, but doesn't follow the UMS sales process. The UMS Salesforce Administrator is adding a validation to keep that from happening again in the future! In the meantime, adjust the record according to the sales process.

Note: This challenge relates to correctly adjusting values other than the stage and related records based on the opportunity's stage. When working with the records below, do not change the record's stage. For this challenge, complete all of the steps in the UMS sales process for the stage indicated.

Records to Review

  • Advanced Sports Development: Veronika Heino is a technical buyer and the primary contact for this deal; Leonidas Nirmal is the executive sponsor.
  • Advanced Sports Retail: Check the opportunity record's description for key deal information.
  • Education First Academy
  • First Property Land LLC

With all of the records updated, you're ready for the weekly sales meeting. It's a good thing you reviewed each opportunity--your manager notices that you've updated these key opportunities and gives you great feedback.
