Getting the lay of the land with Zoho CRM and Google Maps
The Gawk team was looking for a better way to track commercial leasing agreements and know their lead potential, progress and pipeline health based on their many regions across Victoria. Up until now, they had been using a mix of Google Spreadsheet and Trello to track their records and navigating between the two was becoming a massive time sink for management. The team needed a clear, at-a-glance report to ensure they had all current leads in hand and an eye on all their future opportunities. The Squirrel team stepped in with the aim to collate this data into one central location in Zoho CRM. This solution became the Gawk team’s custom CRM module, Development Priorities. It enabled the team to track their lead segments by regional area so they could get the most out of their potential deals. Each region now provided clear information as to the status of all its leads and their last interaction dates, so the team could keep on top of all the interactions. With a click of a button, a user in CRM could delve into the deeper details of the Lead record, or bring up a regional map to review the entire local area to plan trips and see what opportunities could potentially be reignited. In review, Luke Course (Director) found that he “doubled their output…with scouting becoming quicker, and tracking has improved.”. They recorded an approximate increase of 30% more leads signed across this period due to their ability to make data-informed decisions for the business and provide the nurturing their leads needed to choose Gawk Outdoor.
Integrating Hubspot and printIQ for quick Sales quotes.

The team was able to review, design and adapt a process to suit the Courtney Brands sales team, allowing them to quickly and easily push quotes and track print jobs between both systems.
