Overseeing mergers and acquisitions requires complex processes, especially when millions of dollars are at stake. To be effective, Raincatcher has to manage relationships with clients (business owners), prospective buyers, accountants and lawyers, ensuring they’re tracked and moved through their respective pipelines.
Relationships with clients often last up to eight months or a year before they go to market, at which point Raincatcher then filters its pipeline of buyers in Pipedrive to market the business to.
All of this takes time, so Raincatcher needed a solution that would enable them full visibility of their deals and pipelines while streamlining their workflows.
The Raincatcher team discovered that Pipedrive could help them overcome the challenges they faced and more.
The company is making the most of Pipedrive’s features to:
Manage multiple pipelines in parallel
Automate lead qualification
Store and manage relevant files and notes
Capture lead information through a Zapier integration
Manage their email marketing in the same place as their deal management
Pipedrive is an indispensable tool for Raincatcher, enabling the business broker and M&A firm to manage a complex, high-value transaction pipeline more efficiently and effectively.
By automating crucial processes, managing multiple detailed pipelines and integrating essential systems, Pipedrive has saved the company significant time and doubled the firm’s merger and acquisition deal value, demonstrating the power of a well-implemented CRM system in a demanding industry.
