Introduction
The relationship between BAC group and Doble group evolved from exchanges at a technology event between Mariano Doble, CEO of Doble Group, and a member of BAC Group’s Sales organization. BAC group had limited experience in using a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tool in their own business. Still, after being exposed to the Doble Group’s Salesforce environment, they set out to incorporate a similar setup for their business.
The sales team at BAC Group needed an optimal approach to prioritizing leads, organizing opportunities, and managing overall sales performance. Salesforce.com was the clear way to go in terms of a CRM for their Sales organization, and so was their consulting partner, Doble Group.
