SEAL THAT DEAL WITH LEXISNEXIS SALES PROFESSIONAL

When you head up a busy team of sales professionals you understand that the amount of time you invest in research can be the factor that makes or breaks that crucial deal. But when your team is making hundreds of calls a day to prospective clients, it’s not always possible to commit valuable time to gaining that vital insight.

LexisNexis Sales Professional is a new business and account management tool from Europe’s leading provider of online intelligence, LexisNexis Butterworths Tolley. Designed specifically for the sales and marketing professional, it contains only the functions you need to find relevant information on potential and existing customers faster and more efficiently.

Monitor today’s news
In the Today section you can browse the national dailies and business sections for news on your major clients or competitors, scan executive appointments to strengthen existing relationships or build new ones, and keep updated on mergers and acquisitions.

Sophisticated news searches
Search an unrivalled database of over 11,000 global news sources and over a million companies from over 50 countries – including archived content, specialist titles, magazines and transcripts - to help you prepare for your meetings and add context and weight to your reports. The General News function also allows you to easily control the number of sources, with pick lists for subject, industry or geographical terms.

Company Financials
Whether you want a quick snapshot of a company’s financial status, or an in-depth report including industry medians and ratios, Company Financials can pull together a list of prospects or contacts to meet your particular targets. With over 1 million UK limited and PLC company reports, plus more than 34,000 reports from 51 other countries, Company Financials allows you to download reports – containing financials, contact details - and sometimes credit ratings – direct to your desktop.

Get the low down on key contacts
Search the People function for news about potential clients, their attitudes, interests and aspirations – the perfect ice-breaker that could seal the deal.

LexisNexis Sales Professional is easy to use with no specialist internet experience necessary, making it the ultimate research tool for the sales and marketing professional. Pick your valuable results straight off the printer as you dash to your meeting or download your results to your desktop in a wide range of formats, including a pdf format that looks great in client presentations. Alternatively, LexisNexis Sales Professional results can be shared with a colleague via the handy email option.
