Client Objective
To implement Salesforce CRM to improve sales efficiency, unify customer data, and enable better customer service through enhanced analytics and automation.
Challenge

Inefficient Sales Processes
Sales representatives spent significant time manually updating records, leading to inconsistent data and lost leads.
Lack of Unified Customer Data
Customer interactions and records were scattered across different systems, making it challenging for teams to access a complete view of customer history and preferences.
Limited Scalability
The previous system couldn’t scale as the company grew, creating bottlenecks in data management and impacting customer experience.
