ClientPoint is an enterprise-level, cloud-based proposal creation, and management solution. It gives users the ability to easily create, send, manage, and track business proposals, contracts, quotes, and more in minutes. The platform allows sales professionals to share customized proposals, which are not just limited to text-based content. Instead, they can incorporate multimedia files like images, video messages, client testimonials, presentations, e-brochures PDFs, etc., within their proposals. It also gives them the leverage to track and get real-time insights on their user behavior and create tailored proposals specific to user interests. ClientPoint helps organizations optimize their proposal management lifecycle effortlessly and fasten their sales.

Challenges

Our Client owns the largest independently owned facility services company based in Southern California. While the company was thriving exceptionally, it felt a need in the area of proposal automation. For a company that was growing stupendously, managing marketing and sales through traditional proposal generation methods was obviously a challenge. Although the client tried a few proposal automation tools available in the market, neither of them met the expectations altogether. The existing proposal automation tools failed to:

Create interactive proposals that could include varied content types.
Offer confidentiality to prevent data breach.
Provide with performance analytics in real-time.
Offer secure e-signature facility.
Prevent proposal recreation every time.

The challenge was to bring significant improvements in the way companies create and share proposals to boost their sales, which was earlier impossible with the existing sales automation tools.

Solution

As a solution to the client’s issues with the existing application, Softobiz decided to remodel it with newer technology, architecture, and features set as CLIENT POINT.

Our primary objective was to take sales automation to the next level while incorporating interactivity and keeping the users’ ease-of-use intact. Hence, our development team used PHP framework while focusing on its libraries. This helped us bring in the multimedia requirements that client asked for. We also integrated popular CRMs and ERPs to manage the database within the enterprise application. Integration of advanced e-signature tools like Sertifi and Right Signature helped us make signing the proposals easy without the need to download and scan documents.
