Solution

  • SM Innovations worked closely and efficiently with the primary stakeholder to organize and migrate a full-scale opportunity pipeline, accounts with agency and brand hierarchy parent requirements, and contacts with proper account association pulled from MediaRadar.
  • SM Innovations also created a custom opportunity workflow with Products, Flight Dates, Amounts, and an Opportunity Scheduler to accurately track and report on Klover’s unique deal structures.

Outcome

  • Considering the strict investor timeline to meet the revenue needs, SM Innovations executed a Quickstart package to bring the Salesforce org online in a timely manner, and customize Salesforce to accommodate Klover’s unique business approach
  • As a result, the sales team were able to leverage their Salesforce org within a matter of weeks of engaging SM Innovations with plans for expanding their Salesforce footprint in the near future.
