Client Requirements

Centralized Dealer Management System

There was a need to have a single system that organized its dealers’ interactions, communications, and guaranteed uniform engagement in various regions. The lack of a centralized platform has curtailed the visibility of activities and operational efficiency of dealers.

Performance Monitoring & Insights

An organized system was required to measure the performance of dealers based on standardized KPIs. The client needed real-time dashboards and reporting functionalities to allow the leadership teams to make data-driven decisions.

Effective Dealer Onboarding Process

The process of onboarding had to be optimized to minimize the time to productivity of new dealers. The current onboarding practices were manual, inconsistent, and had no scalability to various geographic markets.

Challenges

Ineffective Dealer Processes

The operations of dealers were not consistent throughout the regions and thus led to poor customer experiences and execution inefficiencies. Absence of standard workflows posed difficulties in ensuring consistency and control of operations.

Lack of Performance Visibility

The performance of dealers could not be effectively tracked due to limited access to real-time data. The use of manual reporting and fragmented data was commonly sluggish in decision-making.

Fragmented Communication Channels

The interaction between the internal teams and dealers was divided, with emails and unlinked tools. This led to inadvertent updates, slow responses, and less effective collaboration.

Unproductive and Paper-Based Onboarding

The processes of dealer onboarding were very manual, time-consuming, and liable to errors. This lack of automation caused delays in the activation of new dealers and affected business agility in general.

Dealer Network Framework Implementation

An all-encompassing dealer network management system was developed and deployed on Salesforce. Data models and standardized processes were designed so that dealer or dealership engagement and lifecycle could be consistent across all regions.

Enabling Performance Tracking and Reporting System

Salesforce Sales Cloud has advanced performance tracking models set in place. This was done by creating custom objects, reports, and dashboards that could allow real-time visibility of dealer KPIs to ensure that leadership teams could monitor, analyze, and optimize performance effectively.

Dealer Onboarding & Engagement Process Automation

A fully automated onboarding experience was introduced with the help of the Salesforce Experience Cloud. New guided workflows, digital forms, and approval processes were set up to simplify the process of dealer onboarding and maintain consistency and scalability and enhance user experience.

CRM Architecture Optimization

The current CRM architecture was evaluated and improved to facilitate scalability and integration. The optimization of data structures, integrating communication workflows, and the use of Experience Cloud portals were used to facilitate fluid dealer collaboration and self-service functions.
