Callidus Software Inc. CALD -2.59% , the leader in Sales Performance Management (SPM), in a move to further expand and accelerate its sales mobility platform, today announced the launch of MySalesCoach, a next-generation coaching app for mobile devices, powered by ForceLogix On Demand Sales Coaching platform.

The solution saves precious sales time by keeping front-line sales in the field and boosting adoption, increasing the overall effectiveness of sales coaching programs so the sales team can effectively execute campaigns and win more business.”
