Why Now? “We are at an extraordinary period of history. It is a time of crisis and unprecedented uncertainty, even fear; but it is also a time of opportunity for change and profound transformation.” Klaus Schwab, Chairman, World Economic Forum 2009
Why Now? Your customers and potential customers facing identical cost pressures Their purchasing behaviour has changed; Spending less but looking for more value for money Far more discerning about potential purchases and suppliers You will need to work harder and smarter to increase revenues Biggest mistake would be to ‘sit back’ and do nothing “We are at an extraordinary period of history. It is a time of crisis and unprecedented uncertainty, even fear; but it is also a time of opportunity for change and profound transformation.” Klaus Schwab, Chairman, World Economic Forum 2009
Actual Cost of Doing Nothing
Actual Cost of Doing Nothing Example 1: A sales executive spends 6 weeks closing a 500,000 Baht opportunity with a new customer rather than spending 2 weeks closing a similar opportunity with an existing customer   Example 2: A sales executive with a base salary of 300,000 Baht per year spends 10 hours per week on sales administration  Example 3: A sales executive focuses exclusively on a large but poorly-qualified opportunity worth 5,000,000 Baht rather than pursuing three 600,000 Baht deals with a far higher likelihood of closing  Example 5: At a company, 25% of customer support requests; equating to 2 FTEs earning 150,000 Baht each per year, could be handled on a self-service basis over the web  Example 6: At a company where an average deal is worth 35,000 Baht and the sales team closes one-in-five leads, lower than anticipated demand generated by traditional marketing activities translates into a 30% net decrease in inbound sales enquiries from 80 per month to only 56 per month  Example 4: At a company with 1,000 customers on 10,000 Baht per year service contracts, a 30% increase in call queuing time translates into a 15% increase in non-renewal of service contracts the following year  2.02m Baht in lost revenues over the year 75,000 Baht direct salary cost per yr 1,800,000 Baht opportunity cost 1,500,000 Baht in lost revenues 300,000 direct salary cost 1,000,000 Baht opportunity cost

Editor's Notes

  1. Navigating through turbulent times is never easy, but today’s economic conditions are more challenging than most companies have ever faced. These turbulent times present new opportunities for companies that invest wisely in information technologies. Sage CRM is working with small and medium sized businesses like yours today to help protect and growth revenues during the economic downturn through the use of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software. CRM enables companies to deliver exceptional and personalised service consistently to their customers during these challenging times, increase their customer revenue share through highly focussed business development programmes extend the reach and effectiveness of new business programmes achieve significant cost savings and on-going productivity improvements
  2. In these turbulent times, companies need to examine how they can safeguard revenues and profitability and particularly within their own customer base. Otherwise they are just delaying the inevitable; more painful cost reductions and the very real possibility of sliding into an irrevocable decline. SMBs need practical solutions that will help them to drive productivity and increase effectiveness across their operations. Implementing CRM can drive operational improvements needed to survive and accelerate your company out of the downturn.

SMBs need practical solutions that will help them to drive productivity and increase effectiveness across their operations. Implementing CRM can drive operational improvements needed to survive and accelerate your company out of the downturn.
  5. In a downturn, CRM should not be viewed as a discretionary initiative; it is now an operational and financial imperative for all SMBs. The biggest mistake a company can make at the moment, therefore, is to continue with a ‘business as usual’ mindset notwithstanding exceptional trading circumstances, and hope to ride out the storm through good fortune alone. The ‘cost of doing nothing’ is significant as demonstrated in the table above.
  6. Hidden inefficiencies and costs will become more pronounced as the downturn progresses. This combination of factors is likely to impact materially on overall company viability as each month passes; with the potential for terminal consequences in the case of SMB organisations. Implementing CRM within your organisation can address these issues immediately and prepare you for the economic recovery.
  7. Sage CRM Solutions empower organisations to sell more effectively and efficiently during a downturn. Sales executives have a single point of access for calendars, accounts, reports, pipelines, contacts and call lists; which ensure that they are producing more revenue per sales hour. Easy-to-use analytical tools enable your sales team to identify latent sales opportunities which exist within your customer database, and then create cross-sell and up-sell propositions accordingly. Automated workflow eliminates unnecessary paperwork and ensures that sales teams follow company-specific opportunity milestones. This means that opportunities will be progressed as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Dashboards and reports provide at-a-glance information to sales executives and managers on performance at any point in time. Integration with back-office applications provides sales staff with access to both financial and non-financial customer data, for a complete 360 degree view of their customers. Mobile and offline solutions provide sales teams with access to the information and services that they need to do their jobs effectively; regardless of their location, device or connection, and ensuring that they are as productive in the field as they are in the office.
