1Page is the brainchild of Pooran Prasad Rajanna, an entrepreneur with a keen insight into the challenges of the sales industry. Identifying a critical gap in how sales professionals prepare for meetings, Rajanna embarked on a mission to revolutionize this process. He aimed to create a tool that saved time and enhanced the quality of sales interactions.
Based on multiple patents, the product integrates with over 40 commonly used applications like Email, CRM, Storage, Support, etc., and partnered with data providers like Crunchbase, Owler, Standard & Poor, InsideView, etc. Currently, more than 3000 companies across the world use 1Page for their sales meeting preparation.
1Page has tighter integration with Microsoft products like Microsoft Teams, Outlook, (https://www.office.com/), Microsoft Copilot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, PowerApps, etc. 1Page can go live in a week for a medium to large organization. It can integrate many internal and external applications and extract relevant information from them to bring visibility and adoption to them.
1Page addresses a critical need in the sales process – efficient and effective preparation. Automating the collection and synthesis of data frees sales professionals to invest more time in engaging with clients, understanding their needs, and developing tailored solutions. The result is a more productive sales process, higher conversion rates, and stronger customer relationships.
1Page saves, on average, gives back 2 days’ worth of time to salespeople to take on more sales meetings, crush their quota, and make more commissions, thus increasing topline and improving the bottom line.
