Finance and Sales: they’re often seen as the odd couple of every business. Finance says, “Be careful!” while Sales hears, “Sell faster!” And then there’s the endless back-and-forth—forgotten invoices, capturing data manually, paperwork that gets lost somewhere between sales reps’ car seats and the finance office. Spreadsheets and powerpoint reports pile up, sales invoices get delayed, and then the finger-pointing begins. It’s a bit like a sitcom… but no one’s laughing.

Anyone who says sales people are gifted at admin has never worked in sales. So why is sales so admin-heavy? Think about the call reports, sales forecasting, the in-field orders, and constant monthly reports. Enter mobile CRM for sales reps and managers — literally the only tool you’ll need. And, it’s changing the game for B2B companies. We get it. It sounds ludicrous. One mobile CRM app and desktop solution that ticks all the boxes. But we have built Skynamo to do just that, because we come from sales. So, we’re going to talk about mobile CRM for sales teams from all angles.

Business owners, sales managers, and reps – it’s time to stretch beyond your comfort zone! Just like exercise queen Jane Fonda taught us the value of a good stretch, adopting new sales software might feel like a challenge. But it’s exactly what you need to build a better, stronger, and more flexible sales team. In today’s fast-paced market, staying competitive means more than physical fitness; it’s about being tech-fit, too. That’s where Skynamo, the

Picture this: It’s the 80s, hair is big, pen and paper for managing sales is bigger. Fast forward to today and whilst we should be leaving the pen and paper (and maybe the hair) in the past, there are some “fondamentals” we can still apply to managing sales today.

For that reason, we build differently There is something special about Heritage Month. You can hear the braais sizzling, the eish clinking, and the hadedas hadeda-ing. These are the sounds that call us to come together. As the whole country physically and metaphorically seems to thaw from the winter season, we celebrate and

In a world where you can be anything, be South African. How fitting that as we approach Heritage Month, we continue to celebrate South African success. From outstanding Olympic feats to the rugby fields, to fighting rings – there’s never been a better time to celebrate our heritage. One thing about everything synonymous with being South African, is that the pull of patriotism toward our people often provides relief from the pain of our politics.

Let’s face it: society expects women to do it all. And not just do it all, but do it all with a smile, while wearing multiple hats, and without breaking a sweat. You’re a sales manager, a sister, a mother, a friend, a homemaker, a sports enthusiast, and probably a few more things before your first cup of coffee kicks in. It’s impressive, it’s exhausting, and frankly, it’s borderline superhuman. But here’s the thing—no one, not even Wonder Woman, can do it all alone. Thankfully, technology is here to lend a helping hand, and make the impossible slightly more possible.

But at Skynamo, we believe AI is more than just algorithms and automation. It’s about empowering your sales teams with intelligence that’s actual, accountable, annual, actionable, and accurate. Let’s explore how Skynamo is redefining AI for sales. 1. When you

As the fanfare of February’s amorous escapades settle, and the last of the heart-shaped chocolates are begrudgingly consumed from the clearance aisle, we find ourselves on the cusp of a new month. Ah, March – a time of transition, where the remnants of summer’s relentless heat reluctantly give way to the first cool tendrils of autumn. And what better way to usher in this season of cosying up than by taking the plunge with that wickedly smart, easy-on-the-eye entity that’s been catching your interest? No, not the barista with the asymmetrical haircut – I’m talking about Skynamo.

NYou’re just a salesperson, standing in front of a prospect… asking them to love your product. It’s the romantic comedy of errors that can be the selling profession. See the thing is, selling and dating are a dynamic duo of similarities, that frankly we don’t talk enough about. So let’s unpack the parallels shall we? Finding the perfect catch We all know the age-old adage of ‘there are many fish in the sea.’ Whilst this may be synonymous with dating, it rings true to selling as well. The trick in both dating and selling
