Any outside sales reps use a mapping app?

Looking for an app that allows you to plug in your calls for the day and then lays them out in an efficient route to save time so you’re not driving more than needed.
I’m guessing it’s going to be hard to find one but if anyone does, what do you use and how do you like it?

Why not just use your brain for like 5 minutes a day?

I thought driving around more than needed was a perk of being in outside sales?

Bingo.
That’s the perk of being in outside sales
I will eventually make it out there. At .56 a mile I’m taking the longggg arse way, too

soem CRM apps will do this for you. what do you use to log your calls?

What industry you in? Our company tried mking us do this (industrial sales) and quickly found out it’s a gigantic waste of time because our best salesman’s days are so fluid it’s not worth the time/effort/money. We do use a crm platform to log our calls/pipeline. I find that to be pretty valuable.

Look up mapmycustomers and let me know what you think. They did have a free trial.

I use QuickTrip. I plug all my calls in the night before and it optimizes my route for the following day. It ties is to maps on the iPhone.

Microsoft streets and trips is what you are looking for. I travel 200 miles per day with 30-50 stops for work and this program maps the best route

Microsoft streets and trips
It will be fine in Louisiana for a while because we’re not building new highways. But it was nice when it would update all the road construction.
It was great. Click on all your stops and let it optimize the fastest route.
You could enter in the expected time at each stop and it could plan days of travel and where to stop for the night.
I haven’t seen anything like it.

I use Circuit route planner. Does up to 8 addresses for free before you have to upgrade.

Badger Maps is pretty good.

Batchgeo is a program that's been around a while.
There are probably better options available now, but it works pretty well
