Salesforce Partner Battlecard

What Makes it Great

• Grounded in customer impact: The battlecard centers around business outcomes—like improving pipeline visibility or reducing case resolution times—so partners can tie Salesforce’s value to measurable results, not just feature lists.
• Competitor-specific differentiation: It includes side-by-side comparisons with key competitors, clearly calling out where Salesforce leads (e.g. scalability, ecosystem depth) and where buyers might need reassurance (e.g. implementation time, cost).
• Persona-aware messaging: The card maps Salesforce value props to different buyer types—sales leaders, IT stakeholders, and finance—so partners can pivot messaging based on who’s in the room.
• Handles common objections head-on: Objections like “Salesforce is too complex” or “It’s more expensive than X” are met with direct, benefit-first counters that partners can say out loud without sounding defensive.
• Built for real-time use: The layout is clean, highly skimmable, and easy to use mid-call. It’s organized into chunks by theme—competitive, objections, personas—so sellers can jump to what they need.

🎯 Takeaway Tip

Build objection handling into your battlecard by persona—finance will care about cost, IT will ask about integrations, sales leaders want results. Don’t treat objections as one-size-fits-all.
