Microsoft Dynamics 365 + LinkedIn Sales Navigator: time to tune up sales!
A couple of weeks ago, LinkedIn trumpeted that it has now exceeded 500 million registered users across 200 countries on its platform! Shortly after, Microsoft EVP of Cloud and Enterprise Scott Guthrie announced the Dynamics 365 LinkedIn Sales Navigator integration… This long-anticipated union has now propelled Microsoft Dynamics 365 as the most compelling offer there is on the CRM market. Here is why – time to tune up our sales numbers!

Launched back in the autumn 2016, Microsoft Dynamics 365 brings about an end-to-end environment in the cloud — integrating intelligent business applications such as sales, marketing, field service, operations, project service automation, customer service, and finance. Built on a per-user, per-application basis, it has the ability to grow with organisations using the software.
While Microsoft has continued to push enhancements to the software (check their Dynamics 365 Roadmap page), many Sales professionals like me have been longing for what I see as their biggest update: the one that brings Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales and LinkedIn’s Sales Navigator closer and makes these two products remarkably affordable together.
But what does it mean for us salespeople? Dynamics 365 for Sales + LinkedIn Sales Navigator represents a major development for the sales process. It will make us more effective and allow us to save valuable time in order to tune up our sales pipeline:
Not only am I excited to get to use Microsoft Relationship Sales Solution myself, but also I look forward to sharing the benefits with our customers.
This Microsoft Relationship Sales solution will be available from 1st July as a single offer bringing together LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Dynamics 365 for Sales at about half the cost of current competitive solutions in the market.
Microsoft looks to bringing more enhancements and additions to Dynamics 365’s functionality, thereby further empowering end users to do more and to make more informed decisions by breaking down silos and using business intelligence.
