1. Why connect 8020REI with Salesforce through a 2-way integration?

A direct real-time integration ensures your CRM and 8020REI operate with synchronized, enriched, and always-updated data.

From CRM → 8020REI

Your Salesforce instance sends essential data to 8020REI (leads, activities, performance). This enables:

  • Improved scoring, recommendations, and targeting

  • Cleaner lists by suppressing leads you’re already working on

  • Better performance analytics and market trend insights

From 8020REI → CRM

Your Salesforce data is enriched and updated in real time. This includes:

  • Alerts when a property sells to a competitor

  • New distress events detected on properties

  • Additional data points, distress signals, and scores

  • Caller ID matching for inbound prospect calls, showing complete property details in Salesforce

Additional Benefits

  • Automation: Property and lead data flows into Salesforce automatically—no manual imports.

  • Prioritization: 30/60/90 Action Plan classifications sync to Salesforce to help your team focus on the right sellers.

  • Unified visibility: Salesforce becomes your central hub for property intelligence + your sales activity.

  • Enhanced reporting: Build dashboards that include 8020REI insights for stronger decision-making.

  • Efficiency & accuracy: Reduce manual work, eliminate errors, and ensure data stays consistently up-to-date.


In short: 8020REI + Salesforce = better insights, fewer manual tasks, and faster deal flow.


2. Map Salesforce Statuses

8020REI uses statuses to track where a property is in the seller journey.
To ensure both systems remain aligned, map your Salesforce statuses to 8020REI’s framework.


Example Mapping

Your Salesforce setup may include custom statuses—these should be aligned accordingly.


3. Required Fields for Salesforce Integration

To ensure accurate record matching, classification, and enrichment, specific fields must exist and be populated in Salesforce.


Required Fields: Leads & Opportunities

These fields must be present in both Lead and Opportunity objects:

CategoryFieldDescription

Minimum required for matching:

(For best performance and accurate syncing, all fields are strongly recommended.)

Deals require three additional fields to support financial and performance insights in 8020REI:

CategoryFieldDescription

These fields feed directly into 8020REI’s financial dashboards and analytics.
