Salesforce Starter and Configuration
CSL streamlined IT and digital transformation operations resulting in a 100% increase in inbound lead capture, improved conversion rates, and improved team productivity.
The Challenge
The client faced significant operational hurdles due to scattered data, undefined workflows, and inefficient lead capture methods.

The client struggled with scattered and unstructured data across various departments. This lack of centralized data management led to inefficiencies in tracking customer interactions and hindered informed decision-making
2. Absence of Defined Processes
Without standardized workflows, the company faced inconsistencies in handling sales and support tasks. This resulted in delays, errors, and reduced accountability among team members.
3. Inefficient Lead Capture Mechanisms
The existing manual methods for capturing inbound leads were slow and error-prone, leading to missed opportunities.
4. Limited Visibility into Sales and Support Metrics
The lack of real-time reporting tools made it challenging for management to monitor performance metrics.
