13 Best Sales Territory Mapping Software For Mac

Mapping your sales territory is essential to see exactly where your products are selling and where your sales team are performing.

However, finding software on Mac that can help clearly visualize sales territories and boundaries isn’t easy.

Therefore we’ve looked at the best sales territory map makers on Mac for both management and sales reps which enable you to see how you’re doing geographically.

For those that are looking for a replacement for Microsoft’s now discontinued MapPoint on Mac, all of the solutions here are excellent alternatives, most of which go way beyond what MapPoint could do.

Many of them integrate with CRM solutions and they can all be used as Excel mapping software on your Mac as they can import Excel or CSV files.

There are also several cloud based solutions that work across all platforms so this article will also be of interest to those on both Mac and Windows PCs.

Choosing The Right Sales Mapping Software For You

There are various reasons why sales territory mapping software is important for companies with sales teams and wide distribution areas.

For sales reps, defining a sales territory alignment software prevents cannibalization of sales and also prevent reps standing on each others toes when competing for targets.

For marketing departments, it means advertising and promotional campaigns are better optimized by area especially when it comes to email marketing campaigns and sales promotions.

Put simply, if you don’t have detailed data on your service area, you can’t optimize sales and you’re likely missing out on opportunities.

Before jumping in however, the right solution for your particular needs will largely depend on whether you’re a sales manager or a sales representative. Sales managers will probably be looking for software that helps them balance sales over wider areas or take decisions on which regions to advertise, open a new office, adjust sales targets etc.

Sales Reps on the other hand will want something to better manage their sales territory, avoid cannibalization of sales and identify potential leads more effectively. You’ll find most of the tools can be used by both but some are aimed more at the needs of management in large enterprises.

Other questions you might want to consider are:

• Do you need both sales territory mapping and lead generation? Some apps offer specific tools
• Do you need a tool which shows you how to optimizes routes to customers or potential clients?
• Do you need mobile app support for sales field tracking?
• Do you want a tool than can be used in your business for other types of data visualization apart from sales?
• Do you need integration with other GPS tools such as Google Maps, Garmin and Magellan?

With this in mind, here then are the best sales territory map makers for Mac in order of ranking.
