Thomson Reuters Improves Sales Processes with Improved Apps and Salesforce
Challenge
Solution
Improved Apps designed and implemented several solutions to address Thomson Reuters’ challenges. One solution was the implementation of in-page field help, which provided guidance to users directly within the Salesforce pages. This solution ensured that users had access to the guidance they needed to use Salesforce effectively, resulting in improved productivity and revenue.
Another solution was the creation of an index of guides for order capture in Apttus, which made it easier for sales reps to understand and navigate the order capture process. The guides were also profile-specific, ensuring that sales reps had access to the information relevant to their role.
Improved Apps also created a ‘Nudge’, as a reminder to Sales Reps to complete required information about the value of a deal, therefore improving the quality of data accuracy for reporting.
Finally, Improved Apps implemented dynamic product training, which provided sales reps with real-time product information and training directly within the Salesforce pages. This solution ensured that sales reps had access to the most up-to-date product information, which improved their ability to close deals efficiently.
Results
The solutions provided by Improved Apps had a significant impact on Thomson Reuters’ sales processes. The implementation of in-page field help and the creation of an index of guides for order capture in Apttus resulted in a 20% reduction in onboarding time and a 60% reduction in support requests. Additionally, the implementation of dynamic product training resulted in increased sales rep productivity and improved sales performance.
In addition, the solutions provided by Improved Apps resulted in an increase in employee NPS score. The improved guidance and training provided by the solutions improved employee satisfaction and engagement, which had a positive impact on the overall culture and morale of the organisation
