Client Impact Story

Improved consistency in the sales process

Worldatwork Uses Salesforce Sales Cloud And CPQ To Enhance Customer Experience And Empower Its Teams

BACKGROUND

WorldatWork is a non-profit organization that provides thought leadership, comprehensive education, certifications, research and advocacy to human resources professionals working throughout the world. Its mission is to be the authoritative source for those seeking knowledge and connection as they work to attract, retain, motivate and engage the workforce. WorldatWork serves more than 70,000 members and subscribers worldwide. However, as its community continued to grow, the functionality of its legacy member management software did not meet certain business requirements. As a result, it found itself in a static environment with little room for scalability. The legacy system was difficult to use, resource-intensive and lacked flexibility to add consistency in their sales process. WorldatWork looked to MST Solutions to develop a solution that would enhance their lead tracking process, accelerate quoting, automate the publication process and offer clients a streamlined, user-friendly experience.

CHALLENGE

Prior to launching the new solution, WorldatWork was missing important collaboration tools and had little insights into key performance metrics. This led to an inability to visualize the sales pipeline and an overly complex product structure and quoting process. In addition, its teams relied on manual processes to provide approvals on discounts and track leads and publications. Due to these challenges, WorldatWork needed a system that would increase the efficiency and effectiveness of its teams while sustaining future growth of the organization.

SOLUTION

After reviewing the organizations needs and existing platforms, MST Solutions configured Salesforce Sales Cloud and CPQ in a way that would increase user acceptance and create a 360-degree view of the customer. This combination of Salesforce products allows WorldatWork to streamline their product list, automate processes for quotes and publications and provides a comprehensive view of engagement with WorldatWork customers. The process of approving discounts was automated to make it easy to track and keep quotes and pricing consistent. MST Solutions also integrated other software with the Salesforce platform including DocuSign and Marketo, providing a single point of entry into multiple applications and empowering teams to work faster and smarter.
