Saved per week
When Document360 first launched, the team used spreadsheets to track prospects and deals. However, once Document360’s prospects began filling the sales pipeline, the team knew that a dedicated customer relationship management solution was needed, so they set about researching the best tools on the market.
They searched for a CRM that had the following features and functionality:
Simple onboarding so the quality of the sales process and sales pipeline management could be replicated quickly by new Sales Development Representatives
Extensive customization within the sales processes and framework, especially in the sales pipeline
Tight integrations with the most-used software tools, including Outlook, Zapier, and Autopilot, to streamline processes and introduce automation
Access to rich analytics in order to understand their sales processes and the relationship between customer behavior, sales and KPIs
After doing market research, the team realized Pipedrive would be the perfect fit, with its easy-to-understand interface, customization options, third-party integrations and access to insights and reports.
Depending on how leads interact with the Document360 website, there are two ways of entering the pipeline, either through a free 14-day trial or a scheduled demo. From there, leads enter the custom sales pipeline, after which they go through another seven stages until the deal has been closed.
Each interaction provides Document360 with different information about the lead, and thanks to Pipedrive’s integrations, the data can be easily recorded into contacts pages and deals to help guide reps through each buyer’s journey.
Once the deal is complete, Pipedrive’s open API has enabled Document360 to integrate it with Churn360 to provide a complete 360° view of each customer.
Now, with Document360’s sales information centralized in the CRM database, anyone on the sales team can have instant access to the data they need when they need it, eliminating silos and communication time.
A range of other Pipedrive tools have become crucial to the sales team’s day-to-day functioning.
Email templates help the team save time, with Sales Development Representatives able to search contacts and information, pull out and fill in key data, and send bulk emails
By automatically assigning incoming leads to Sales Development Representatives (SDRs), and creating automated follow-up tasks, each SDR has a personalized task list when they start the day
Thanks to Pipedrive’s intuitive interface, the sales team saves a huge amount of time per week that used to be spent on admin and overhead work, as well as manual reporting – now, with Pipedrive, the team is saving four-to-six hours a week
Plus, with Pipedrive’s ability to log each prospect’s organization, team size, revenue, and industry, Document360 has been able to identify and understand the markets it wants to be a player in.
They’ve even created ideal customer profiles based on the characteristics of successful deals in the past, which in turn helps decision-making about future sales targeting activities to improve success.
Document360 has seen its sales team expand from 2 to 13 members, a 650% rise over five years.
Pipedrive has helped Document360 achieve 10x growth of lead volume, with the rate of new leads accelerating all the time.
As Pipedrive has grown and added features, Document360 has taken advantage of them in its sales processes to maximize efficiency and grow year-on-year.
