The technical landscape posed challenges in providing a seamless customer experience, implementing new business models, and accurately forecasting revenues. Legacy systems led to missed opportunities, inaccurate forecasts, and costly operations. The Key challenges included: 

1. Poor Customer Experience 

Inconsistent information and slow processes made it difficult for the client to provide a seamless buying journey for their customers. 

2. Missed Revenue Opportunities 

Inaccurate forecasts and slow deal approvals were leading to missed sales. 

3. High Operational Costs 

Maintaining multiple, disconnected systems was expensive and inefficient 

The ASK - Building a Magical Solution

  • Empower the frontline team: Equip sales representatives with the tools and information they needed to act as trusted business consultants for their customers. 
  • Streamline Collaboration: Create a system that could propose, calculate, and officialize deals quickly and efficiently. 
  • Improve Forecasting: Provide accurate, integrated data to enable better forecasting and revenue management. 
  • Reduce Costs: Consolidate and simplify the IT landscape to streamline operations.
