💾 Automatically capture files and highlights in Salesforce

Capture files and images in Salesforce

Momentum automatically uploads files or images from the channel to the Salesforce opportunity. Momentum will react with a 💾 :floppy_disk: to let you know the file or image has been captured.

Capture message highlights as Chatter comments

Slack channels can get noisy, especially when a deal is moving fast and there are lots of stakeholders. To keep track of important messages, Momentum introduces the concept of "highlights". React to important messages with the ☝️ :point_up: emoji to store the highlight in Salesforce as a Chatter comment. Momentum will confirm the message has been captured with its own ✅ :white_check_mark: reaction. You can have as many highlights as you like.

💡 You can find all files and highlights in Salesforce as attachments and Chatter comments.

👯‍♀️ Invite your teammates

Now it's time to get some deal momentum going (see what we did there?). Invite your teammates, stay on top of your deals, and blow your quota out of the water.

⚠️ Raise a Deal Issues

If a deal is blocked from making progress, you can use the 'Raise an Issue' workflow to alert the right people with the right context.

To raise a deal issue, type /momentum-raise-issue in the deal room that needs attention.

Then type your message explaining what needs to happen to move the deal forward and list the people who need to be aware of the issue.

The issues will be raised in the deal room and the people listed in the issue will be notified. If they aren't already in the deal room, they will receive a direct message notification and can click "Join Deal Room" to be brought directly to the channel. Otherwise, they will receive a notification in the deal room channel.
