What is Omnichannel Selling?

Omnichannel selling is a unified sales strategy that enables customers to interact and transact seamlessly across multiple channels — including direct sales, digital commerce, partner portals, marketplaces, and customer service — without friction or inconsistency. It emphasizes channel coordination, experience continuity, and data synchronization across touchpoints.

🌐 Why Omnichannel Selling Is Essential in Modern B2B Commerce

B2B buyers now expect the same seamless experience they get as consumers — with access to products, pricing, and support across any channel, anytime. Omnichannel selling meets that demand by:

  • 📲 Giving customers a consistent experience across digital, field, and partner sales
  • 🔁 Syncing pricing, inventory, and configuration logic across platforms
  • 🧭 Guiding complex purchases through self-serve and assisted channels
  • 📈 Increasing buyer engagement, deal velocity, and customer satisfaction
  • 🔒 Reducing channel conflict and data silos

It’s not just about being present on every channel — it’s about being aligned on every channel.

Benefits:

In complex B2B environments, quoting and configuration must remain channel-agnostic and rule-compliant — no matter where the deal starts or ends.

ServicePath™ CPQ+ supports omnichannel selling by enabling:

  • 🔗 A single source of truth for pricing, configuration, and approvals
  • 🌍 Integration with digital commerce, partner portals, CRM, and ERP
  • 🧾 Consistent quoting logic across direct reps, resellers, or eCommerce
  • 📊 Centralized visibility into deal health and margin across channels
  • 🧠 Intelligent workflows tailored by channel, region, or buyer type

Omnichannel selling only works when your commercial engine works the same everywhere. That’s what ServicePath™ CPQ+ delivers.
