Content Recommendations in Salesforce automatically suggest the most relevant content for your sales conversation. The recommendations, which serve up materials such as videos, ebooks, whitepapers, and infographics, are based on deal data in Salesforce. Using machine learning, the recommendations become more intelligent over time. This will give you the best suggestions on how you advance each deal. Create a link to share the recommended content and search in your Showpad library to add other assets to your Share.

This is based on tags, hand-picked content, the Stage field, forecast category in Salesforce. All the files are compared and using machine learning, we can show that a deal was closed with this content or not.
