CRM marketing automation AI
Challenge
A B2B service provider was losing leads due to:
- Inconsistent follow-up (some leads waited weeks for responses)
- No clear pipeline visibility
- Manual proposal drafting taking hours per lead
- Scattered contact data across email, spreadsheets, and sticky notes
Solution
We implemented a CRM and automation system that:
- Centralized all contacts into a single, clean database
- Automated follow-up sequences for new leads
- Built proposal templates with AI-assisted customization
- Created a visual pipeline showing deal stages and next actions
Outcome
- 25% increase in lead-to-customer conversion
- 40% faster response times (from days to hours)
- 50% reduction in time spent drafting proposals
- Full pipeline visibility for the first time in company history
Key Takeaway
Marketing automation isn’t about spam—it’s about consistency. When every lead gets timely, relevant follow-up, conversion rates rise and nothing falls through the cracks.
