Understanding the Demandbase One for Sales Engagement Tab

  • Updated

The Demandbase One for Sales Engagement tab provides comprehensive information about your target company’s engagement activity. 

The No Sales Touches (14d) toggle enables you to quickly determine whether the account needs follow-up due to a lack of recent engagement. It's enabled by default.

Timeline

Timeline displays account engagement over a selected period. You can view it as a Deal Story or Engagement. Hovering over the trend lines in any chart shows the total Engagement Minutes and top activities at that specific time. 

Deal Story
