                                                                               Head Office:     Melbourne, VIC
 National Support Centre servicing practices throughout VIC, NSW & QLD,       Practices:       137

practices                                                                      Support Staff:   16

                                                                               Steven Whittington
 We had a busy call centre that was battling will increasing enquiry levels   Chief Operating Officer
coupled with a growing network of practices that weren’t being serviced well
enough by our current systems                                                  www.liferesolutions.com.au


 BRW’s eighth largest growing franchise in Australia, we needed a solution
that was smart, flexible and capable of scaling with our business
Why Salesforce?
 Reviewed several CRM solutions including MS Dynamics, Net Suite and salesforce.com


 Our consulting partner, Aprika Business Solutions demonstrated salesforce.com had the flexibility to be easily
customised to our requirements and the scalability to support our objectives for rapid network expansion


 Salesforce.com has an intuitive user interface and we were able to customise page layouts to make data entry
swift and build workflow rules & triggers to automate common business processes that helped reduce call handling
times


 The power of the salesforce.com API was a key factor given we knew we would be looking to integrate our CRM
system with other key business systems


 The licensing model made it a cost effective solution, enabling us to provide the national support team with a full
enterprise platform whilst using authenticated website licenses to provide access to key areas for practice staff
What are the results / outcomes?
 We have reduced our call handling time from 9 minutes to under 60 seconds

 We have a seamless business platform that manages our processes end to
end, providing clear insight to the business KPI’s. Salesforce.com has allowed us
to integrate with eHealth compliant practice management software whilst providing
enterprise-level business system functionality

 Our team has really embraced Chatter, which provides us with a secure social
application to share information internally                                           Aprika Business Solutions

 The ‘Virtual Briefcase’ portal keeps us connected to our practices, has automated   Colin Johnson
e-commerce functions, and has evolved the service delivery model of our business      Managing Director
to enable us to achieve aggressive growth targets
                                                                                      www.aprika.com.au
 Built a strong ongoing relationship with our Salesforce.com consulting partner
Aprika Business Solutions who drove the entire project from needs
analysis, solution architecture through integration, custom app
design, development and training. They have become an extension of our own
team and stay engaged with the achievements of our business
What would you do differently?

 Build additional workflow / trigger functionality to automate more business processes


 Engage Aprika to deliver ‘End User’ training as well as ‘Train the Trainer’ training
Phil Newman
Managing Director
What do you do as a Business?
Fortress Systems are a Melbourne based manufacturer of high power, high voltage resistors for the mining, oil & gas,
and utility industries. We manufacture most of what we sell in our Braeside facility.
Why Salesforce?
•   At the time we had no CRM system

•   We had just added a second sales person, and he didn’t have access to all of the information in my head

•   We needed to install a system quickly and we considered Salesforce low risk as it was a low cost to entry. If it
    didn’t work we would have moved onto something else.
What are the results / outcomes?
•   Dramatically improved our productivity and organisation of the sales process.

•   Greater visibility of opportunities and are able to capture much more IP. We use Chatter to monitor the amount of
    opportunity follow up activity. Good for managers.

•   We normally quote an opportunity to more than one OEM and we are able to tie together enquiries very effectively
    which saves a lot of time and enables us to provide consistent offers. We save 2-3 hours every time we identify we
    have quoted the same job previously.

•   We have expanded the use to other areas of the business, in particular Quality & OHS by building custom objects
    ourselves.
What would you do differently?
 • Build a relationship with our Salesforce Account Executive earlier. It was a 30 minute demo from her that really
   triggered our expansion of the system to other areas of the business.

 • Get in touch with a local Salesforce Consultant earlier. Some things we can do ourselves but others are a lot
   quicker done by the experts. The little bits of advice we have received have been invaluable.

 •   Tackle roles, profiles, and permissions at the beginning, not after three years!

 •    The decision maker needs to understand the capabilities of the system through some technical knowledge of it
     in order to be able to fully utilise its capabilities, especially if you are too small a company to have a full time
     Salesforce Administrator.

 •   Spend more time working on reports and dashboards to allow more use of the information we gather.

What would you do differently?
Context
• 3 of our team had worked with salesforce.com integration partners. We wouldn’t and couldn’t have done it
  without that!

Aligned Data Models
• The more you plan and continually refine the alignment the better; Master versus Slave decisions critical, as
   is understanding Salesforce.com data model and its evolution

Document and test
• Continual evolution is tempting, and valuable, but don’t forget to follow through rapidly before you forget

Read the Release Notes
• The continual platform evolution solves many problems

    . . . and . . .

Limit Relief
• We would highly value selective relief on limits and better access to product managers on ‘new’ functionality

Operations Manager
What do you do as a Business?

      high quality Motorcycle, Power Equipment and Marine Products.

    • We are also the most prominent provider of Motorcycle & ATV training via our Honda Australia

 Proven CRM Solution

 Ease of use

 Powerful Customisation to meet our particular business needs

 Streamlined case management process

 High level reporting capabilities

And most importantly

  • 4. What do you do as a Business?  Australia’s leading network of professional psychology practices, providing psychology services to both private and corporate clients Head Office: Melbourne, VIC  National Support Centre servicing practices throughout VIC, NSW & QLD, Practices: 137 including managing scheduling, administration and marketing of over 130 Psychologists: 208 practices Support Staff: 16 Steven Whittington  We had a busy call centre that was battling will increasing enquiry levels Chief Operating Officer coupled with a growing network of practices that weren’t being serviced well enough by our current systems www.liferesolutions.com.au  BRW’s eighth largest growing franchise in Australia, we needed a solution that was smart, flexible and capable of scaling with our business
  • 5. Why Salesforce?  Reviewed several CRM solutions including MS Dynamics, Net Suite and salesforce.com  Our consulting partner, Aprika Business Solutions demonstrated salesforce.com had the flexibility to be easily customised to our requirements and the scalability to support our objectives for rapid network expansion  Salesforce.com has an intuitive user interface and we were able to customise page layouts to make data entry swift and build workflow rules & triggers to automate common business processes that helped reduce call handling times  The power of the salesforce.com API was a key factor given we knew we would be looking to integrate our CRM system with other key business systems  The licensing model made it a cost effective solution, enabling us to provide the national support team with a full enterprise platform whilst using authenticated website licenses to provide access to key areas for practice staff
  • 6. What are the results / outcomes?  We have reduced our call handling time from 9 minutes to under 60 seconds  We have a seamless business platform that manages our processes end to end, providing clear insight to the business KPI’s. Salesforce.com has allowed us to integrate with eHealth compliant practice management software whilst providing enterprise-level business system functionality  Our team has really embraced Chatter, which provides us with a secure social application to share information internally Aprika Business Solutions  The ‘Virtual Briefcase’ portal keeps us connected to our practices, has automated Colin Johnson e-commerce functions, and has evolved the service delivery model of our business Managing Director to enable us to achieve aggressive growth targets www.aprika.com.au  Built a strong ongoing relationship with our Salesforce.com consulting partner Aprika Business Solutions who drove the entire project from needs analysis, solution architecture through integration, custom app design, development and training. They have become an extension of our own team and stay engaged with the achievements of our business
  • 7. What would you do differently?  Build additional workflow / trigger functionality to automate more business processes  Engage Aprika to deliver ‘End User’ training as well as ‘Train the Trainer’ training
  • 9. What do you do as a Business? Fortress Systems are a Melbourne based manufacturer of high power, high voltage resistors for the mining, oil & gas, and utility industries. We manufacture most of what we sell in our Braeside facility.
  • 10. Why Salesforce? • At the time we had no CRM system • We had just added a second sales person, and he didn’t have access to all of the information in my head • We needed to install a system quickly and we considered Salesforce low risk as it was a low cost to entry. If it didn’t work we would have moved onto something else.
  • 11. What are the results / outcomes? • Dramatically improved our productivity and organisation of the sales process. • Greater visibility of opportunities and are able to capture much more IP. We use Chatter to monitor the amount of opportunity follow up activity. Good for managers. • We normally quote an opportunity to more than one OEM and we are able to tie together enquiries very effectively which saves a lot of time and enables us to provide consistent offers. We save 2-3 hours every time we identify we have quoted the same job previously. • We have expanded the use to other areas of the business, in particular Quality & OHS by building custom objects ourselves.
  • 12. What would you do differently? • Build a relationship with our Salesforce Account Executive earlier. It was a 30 minute demo from her that really triggered our expansion of the system to other areas of the business. • Get in touch with a local Salesforce Consultant earlier. Some things we can do ourselves but others are a lot quicker done by the experts. The little bits of advice we have received have been invaluable. • Tackle roles, profiles, and permissions at the beginning, not after three years! • The decision maker needs to understand the capabilities of the system through some technical knowledge of it in order to be able to fully utilise its capabilities, especially if you are too small a company to have a full time Salesforce Administrator. • Spend more time working on reports and dashboards to allow more use of the information we gather.
  • 14. What do you do as a Business? ParkLogic By Domain manage Domain Name Management (eg, www.lawyer.com) • Traffic flow – to multiple different destinations (rules based routing) • 400 Customers • Domain Acquisition and Sales tracking and • 5 Continents management • 1,500 Batches or ‘Portfolios’ of • Domain Registrations Domain Name assets • 400+ control, integrity and reporting fields • 1,000,000+ individual Domain Name per Domain Name Asset Assets

  • 16. What are the results / outcomes? From internal and external use of combined analytic and reporting engine
  • 17. What are the results / outcomes? To professional external interface . .
  • 18. What are the results / outcomes? . . and purpose built internal interfaces for operational control, reporting and decision support

  • 20. What would you do differently? Context • 3 of our team had worked with salesforce.com integration partners. We wouldn’t and couldn’t have done it without that! Aligned Data Models • The more you plan and continually refine the alignment the better; Master versus Slave decisions critical, as is understanding Salesforce.com data model and its evolution Document and test • Continual evolution is tempting, and valuable, but don’t forget to follow through rapidly before you forget Read the Release Notes • The continual platform evolution solves many problems . . . and . . . Limit Relief • We would highly value selective relief on limits and better access to product managers on ‘new’ functionality
  • 21. Chris Leask Customer Relations & Warranty Operations Manager
