Challenge

When cooperation with Victoria Dom started, one of the biggest challenges was to rebuild the CRM system that could not handle a high volume of cases. The functionality of the existing CRM system was to narrow and unintuitive. The company needed a solution to cover the entire sales process with real estate specific and to improve communication between sales and accounting departments.

As Victoria Dom started to receive more enquiries, the salespeople faced a problem of handling them in the appropriate timeframe. As a result, they needed a solution to relieve their workload by automatically handling very specified enquiries via the website.

Approach

We collaborated with Victoria Dom to create a business proposal that covered all needs, timelines, costs, and long-term advantages. Furthermore, a comprehensive strategy was devised to implement and integrate the new project, considering the needs of end-users within the organization.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM was selected as a solution to manage all communications in the system, but it needed some additional functionality. In addition, we needed to develop a custom solution to cover specific real estate processes. We investigated all the processes with salespersons to create a complete map of interactions and implement it as a solution for automatisation.

Solutions

  • ARP Estate Extension Module. Custom solution by ARP Ideas - supports the real estate sales process, considering the specifics of the market and all its stages. Beginning with the ability to conduct customer preference surveys, through managing investments, repayment schedules, arrears and discounts, to annexing contracts and handling authorisations. A key advantage of the ARP Estate Extensions module is ability to keep up-to-date with current Polish real estate legislation.

  • Automatic enquiry processing. Based on selected apartment specifications the system creates the offer for the client if the enquiry fits basic parameters. If the enquiry does not meet the conditions, it is sent to the salesperson with suggested products, who further verifies it. The system makes it possible to specify the percentage of enquiries that go to a particular merchant. Using the ARP Elements tool the offer is immediately embedded in a pre-designed email template, which allows the creation, personalisation and customisation of email, SMS and other communication templates.
