# In-person sales process for Salesforce

Eposly is the assisted selling and clienteling layer for Salesforce. Pricing, options, and decisions are shaped during the interaction. Checkout, payment, and order creation happen on the customer record. Salesforce reflects how the sale actually happened.

The challenge

## When the sales interaction is in Salesforce, but the transaction is not

In many Salesforce setups, checkout and payments are handled outside the platform, using external POS systems, payment tools, or custom integrations. Salesforce manages the customer and the interaction, but the actual transaction happens elsewhere, so the record only shows that something happened, not how it happened.

-   ### No customer context
    
    Staff can't see purchase history, preferences, or account status during the transaction.

    Staff can't see purchase history, preferences, or account status during the transaction.
    
-   ### Rigid checkout flows
    
    External POS systems can't handle configurable products, negotiated pricing, or complex service packages tied to the Salesforce account.

Complete sale

Eposly keeps the interaction and the transaction in the same place. Staff can complete checkout, take payment, and create the order directly inside Salesforce, as part of the same conversation. Pricing, decisions, and outcomes are captured together on the Salesforce record, so the full context of the sale is preserved, not reconstructed afterwards. It is built on Eposly's [point-of-sale and transaction execution layer for Salesforce](/product/capabilities/transaction-execution).

### One interface, every touchpoint

Assisted selling and clienteling for Salesforce can happen in person, at the counter, on the sales floor, in the field, over the phone, or fully remote. In every case, the requirement is the same: the checkout, payment, and order stay connected to the customer and the interaction in Salesforce. Eposly provides one responsive interface that adapts to the device while keeping the full power of Salesforce behind every interaction.

How it works

In practice

## How teams sell with Eposly and Salesforce 

HealthcareLuxury retailIndustrial

![Dental clinic receptionist reviewing a treatment plan with a patient at the front desk](/assets/industry-healthcare-Zgc9cCiA.webp)

### How a healthcare clinic manages patient service packages

A receptionist at a premium dental clinic helps a patient select a treatment plan combining multiple procedures. Each service has options — anaesthesia type, follow-up appointments, insurance coverage adjustments. The receptionist configures the package, applies the patient's insurance discount, and takes a deposit payment. The entire service record, pricing breakdown, and payment are captured on the patient's Salesforce record for billing, follow-up scheduling, and reporting.

Why Salesforce-native

## Why assisted sales works better inside Salesforce

When a staff member guides a customer through a sale — configuring options, applying pricing, completing payment — every decision made in that interaction needs to live on the customer record. Not synced later. Not reconstructed from a receipt. Captured at the moment it happens. Eposly is the only POS built for this: assisted transactions executed inside Salesforce, where the customer relationship already lives, so every interaction makes the next one better informed.

FAQ

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a POS for Salesforce?

A POS for Salesforce is a system that allows businesses to complete transactions, including checkout, payment, and order creation, directly inside Salesforce, without relying on external point-of-sale systems. It keeps the customer record, the interaction, and the transaction in one place.

### What is assisted selling?

Assisted selling is a sales approach where a staff member helps the customer complete the transaction, rather than the customer completing it alone. It is common in clienteling, B2B counter sales, healthcare, showrooms, and high-touch retail, where pricing, options, and decisions are shaped during the interaction.

### What is clienteling?

Clienteling is a sales approach where staff build a personal, ongoing relationship with each customer, using their history, preferences, and context to guide every interaction. In a Salesforce environment, clienteling means using the customer record to shape the conversation, the offer, and the checkout itself.

### Is Eposly a POS for Salesforce?

Eposly provides point-of-sale capabilities inside Salesforce, but it is not a traditional retail POS. Traditional POS systems are designed for fast, predefined checkout, often in high-volume self-service environments. Eposly is designed for assisted selling and clienteling, where the checkout is shaped during the interaction with a staff member and executed directly inside Salesforce on the customer record.

### Can Eposly work on tablets and mobile devices?

Eposly runs on the Salesforce platform, which supports mobile and tablet access. The POS interface is designed to be responsive for counter, floor, and field use.

### Does Eposly support remote or field sales?

Yes. Eposly supports any scenario where an assisted transaction needs to execute inside Salesforce, including remote and field interactions where staff guide the customer.

### How does Eposly handle offline transactions?

Eposly operates within Salesforce's connectivity model. For environments with intermittent connectivity, Salesforce's mobile offline capabilities can be leveraged. Eposly's architecture ensures that transaction data is captured and synced when connectivity is restored.

### Is Eposly suitable for luxury or high-touch retail?

Absolutely. Eposly is designed for assisted sales where customer relationships matter. Staff can access full purchase history, preferences, and account details during the interaction, enabling personalized service that builds trust and drives repeat business.

### How is this different from a traditional POS system?

Traditional POS systems execute predefined checkout logic outside Salesforce and require syncing data back. Eposly executes the entire transaction inside Salesforce, so customer context, order details, and payment are captured in one flow with no data gaps or delays.

### What actually changes for staff using this vs today?

Instead of switching between CRM and POS, staff stay in one screen. They can access the customer, configure the transaction, and complete checkout in a single guided flow — reducing steps and errors during the interaction.

### Can we enforce a consistent checkout process across locations?

Yes. You can define how assisted transactions should be executed and ensure staff follow the same steps, while still allowing flexibility for different scenarios.

### How does this handle different transaction types (quotes, orders, services)?

Eposly supports multiple transaction flows within the same interface. Staff can create quotes, convert to orders, or complete direct sales without switching tools.

### Does this slow down checkout compared to a POS?

No. In most cases, it reduces time by eliminating system switching and manual steps. Everything needed for the transaction is already available in Salesforce.

### What happens if staff need to adjust something mid-transaction?

They can modify products, pricing, or customer details in real time without restarting the process or switching systems.
