What is Compete Bot?

Compete Bot is a gamification and coaching bot for Salesloft/Outreach and Slack. If your sales team uses either of these softwares, there's a good chance you've struggled to find an easy solution to keep your team engaged and up-to-date with the latest stats and metrics. Compete Bot helps keep sales teams engaged, in the know, and continuously improving.

Installing Compete Bot

Click the "Add to Slack" button below. This will bring you to the Slack website where you'll then select an initial channel to install Compete Bot to. Select the channel, and hit 'allow'. Next, you'll want to authorize or Outreach. To do so, just click the 'authorize Salesloft or Outreach' text on your screen and follow the directions. After you've successfully authorized both Slack and Salesloft/Outreach, the bot should redirect you to Slack for more setup.

Adding to Channels

The first thing to you'll want to do after installing Compete Bot is to invite it to all of the Slack channels you want it to post to. Use the command /invite @CompeteBot in the channel(s) of your choosing to do this. For example, we like to setup the channels "#sales-learning" for call recordings to post to and "#sales-success" for notifications of meetings being booked.

Setting the "Connected" Disposition(s)

For CompeteBot to work properly, if you're using Salesloft it needs to know what you consider a "connected" call. Use the multi-select button shown next to the first red arrow below to choose your connected disposition(s). If you're using Outreach, this is the exact same process except you'll be selecting the disposition(s) for what calls are to be defined as a "success".

Setting the User Groups

Lastly, CompeteBot needs to know which users in Salesloft/Outreach you would like to see data from and send messages to. Use the select button shown next to the second red arrow above to choose your user group(s). Learn more about how to use these user groups in Salesloft and 'teams' in Outreach.

Basic Setup

The daily stats feature of Compete Bot sends a message at the time of your choosing every day with stats of your choosing across your entire team.
