Implementing customer-centric sales, service and marketing solutions A private global service firm sought to implement a customer-centric sales, service and marketing solution, but after three years, the firm had little to show for its efforts. Leadership decided a new project partner was needed. They selected PwC to help them reach their business goals. What we did After assessing the company’s requirements, it seemed that what was needed to achieve the company’s goals was more than just a simple integration. What was required was a pragmatic, holistic customer-centric strategy, implemented in stages. PwC undertook a two-pronged approach: first, we helped deploy a program in one office; then looking long-term, we assessed the firm’s strategic growth plan, developing a roadmap for its business and technology needs. Results The solution we recommended provided the company with an integrated customer service representative cockpit that generated 10%+ productivity gains. Administration time was reduced by 30%, which allowed sales to spend more time with customers. Lead conversion increased by 15% and forecast accuracy increased by 20%.
