It will allow users to contact individuals across target companies without leaving their Altify application.
Mat Singer, Sr. Director Sales Effectiveness at CenturyLink commented: “The Altify/ LinkedIn Sales Navigator integration supports our strategy to implement best-in-class tools to drive productivity improvements across our global sales organization. Enabling our sales teams to access rich contact and account information from a single location saves time, drives action, connections and increases productivity. There’s huge value in our strategic partners working together to help CenturyLink build a world-class sales organization.”
Improving sales success
This improvement should aid sellers to target more influencers in the buying cycle.

The information from and integration to LinkedIn is also a benefit as social selling is seen as a way to increase success. With data on more than 500 million, there are few individuals that sellers cannot gain more information about.

Enterprise Times: What does this mean
For Altify this is a significant integration that will help to populate data within its solution. It also provides the ability to see shared connections and request introductions to key contacts. Additionally, the integration supports LinkedIn InMail and can identify when contacts move role both within and outside of target organisations. For Altify customers, LinkedIn will provide a gold mine of information that, if used appropriately, could help boost results.
