Zoom Boosts Sales Team Efficiency with New AI Features in ZRA
Small sales teams often face challenges in managing prospects, tracking pipelines, and maintaining clear communication. Zoom has introduced three practical updates to its Zoom Revenue Automation (ZRA) platform that help sales teams work smarter and stay aligned throughout the sales process.
Organize Sales Territories and Market Segments
Admins can now set up territory-based structures—like EMEA or North America Southwest—and define market segments ranging from small businesses to enterprises. This setup matches how sales teams actually operate, giving reps focused access to the right conversations and prospects.
By reflecting real sales structures, teams can reduce confusion, improve deal handoffs, and make forecasting more accurate. For example, David Smith, a small business owner and sales manager, explained how organizing by territory helped his team focus on client needs and boosted results.
Capture and Analyze In-Person Meetings with AI
Zoom’s new Voice Recorder feature in its mobile app lets sales reps record face-to-face meetings. The AI Companion then transcribes and summarizes these conversations, highlighting key deal moments and sending the insights to ZRA.
This ensures important details aren't missed after meetings. Teams can base follow-ups and strategies on actual interactions rather than memory alone. Mary Johnson, a sales executive, shared that this feature provides invaluable clarity and improves how they engage clients.
Customizable AI Summaries That Sync with CRMs
Sales teams can create custom briefs using AI-generated summaries tailored to their sales processes through templates. These summaries automatically sync with chosen CRM systems, cutting down on manual data entry.
For small businesses with limited time, this automation saves hours. Ben Thompson, co-founder of a marketing agency, pointed out how syncing insights directly into their CRM lets his team focus more on selling and less on paperwork.
Considerations for Small Business Sales Teams
- Switching to a territory-based model may require changes in team workflows and responsibilities.
- Proper training is essential so staff can effectively use AI tools and understand their outputs.
- Data privacy and security need attention since AI captures and analyzes conversations. Establish clear policies and ensure compliance with regulations.
Sales leaders should weigh these points to make the most of Zoom’s new features while protecting sensitive information.

These enhancements offer clear, practical benefits for sales teams aiming to improve focus, communication, and efficiency. Organizing by territory aligns work with real market dynamics. AI-powered meeting analysis captures insights that fuel better follow-ups. Automated, customizable summaries reduce admin time and keep CRMs up to date.
