We’ve been evangelizing the value proposition of the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform for quite some time now.  Any business can mold a business solution specific to the relationships it needs to manage.  The concept of XRM (X = Anything Relationship Management) is one we’ve been talking about for years.  I could certainly forego yet another acronym out there, but it really does encapsulate the value of the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform. 

Here are some recent real-world examples of some business challenges we have solved, across industry and business function, with the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform:

1)       Automated the commission tracking process in Microsoft Dynamics CRM for an Insurance Agency  

  • Automated the inbound processing of monthly commission statements received from multiple Insurance Carriers.
  • Automated the calculation of outbound commissions paid to the Agency’s producers.
  • Transformed a manual process that once took 2 weeks a month to complete to one that now takes four hours a month to complete.

 

2)       Implemented a project tracking system in Microsoft Dynamics CRM for a Professional Services firm that wanted to track new customer onboarding deliverables.  

  • Created the concept of a project template with associated activity items for each type of project.
  • Provided consistency is deliverables and visibility into the ‘next steps’ scheduled for each customer implementation.

3)       Implemented a sales call tracking system in Microsoft Dynamics CRM for an Equipment Manufacturer.

  • Instituted a consistent sales methodology for prospecting and lead qualification.
  • Provided an easy interface for sales reps to manage their call-down lists.
  • Created real-time dashboards of outbound prospecting for each sales rep.
