rate of 40-50 per week, through
a combination of trade press advertising, exhibitions
and seminars. Most end-users are building and construction
companies, but other key customers include local

Priorities
for CRM Software
- Improved enquiry management
- Document access for all staff
- Improved quotation
preparation
- Logging and tracking
all UK and International sales opportunities
|
|
The Goldmine system
used by helifix was clearly inadequate, so this needed
replacing with a system that could:
• Improve
management of enquiries with timely and accurate
logging and distribution, plus tracking and analysis
of resulting sales
• Make all documents, including CAD diagrams, available to engineering, admin and sales staff, in the office or on the road, in a secure manner |
• Enable office and field staff to produce quotations, then to follow-up resulting sales on into the accounting system Allow non-accounting staff, including those on the road, to access stock or delivery information
