The Story
Ad Victoriam Solutions was hired to work with ADDO to deploy Salesforce and Pardot solutions for their high school leadership program. As a management consulting agency, ADDO was hired to facilitate relationships between nearby chain restaurant locations and local high schools. The system needed to capture data on high schools, school staff members and the chain restaurant locations across the country.
Prior to Salesforce, the company managed all of their contact, account and opportunity information within Excel spreadsheets. The primary goal for this project was to increase visibility across the organization and streamline workflow for easier day-to-day task management.
The Challenge
Salesforce
- Capture data for the following types of records:
- Chain restaurant locations
- Chain restaurant management
- Nationwide high schools
- School administration contacts
- Create a dashboard to deliver summary information to the chain restaurant headquarters
- Streamline process from lead to committed high school
- Assist with Task Management
Pardot
- Prevent duplicate accounts from being created based on store location numbers
- Associate school contacts with restaurant sponsors based on store location numbers
- Automate task creation based on Pardot forms submitted and “Lead vs. Contact” records
Our Solution
- Installed Package – GoLocal
- Pardot’s Salesforce Connector setup and integration to allow end users to see marketing metrics and engage with their prospects at the time of interest.
- Pardot Training on forms, landing pages, automation rules and lists
- Visual Flow to automate task creation based on various data elements
The Value/Results
ADDO is now able to manage tasks and relationships within Salesforce and Pardot using leads, accounts and opportunities. The leadership team is able to better facilitate day-to-day activities and management has greater visibility into program success.
“Thank you to you and your team, said John Hightower, Director of Partners and Process at ADDO. “Brian and Imani were excellent yesterday and our team felt like they truly listened and grasp the details of our business.”
Ultimately, Ad Victoriam Solutions was able to accomplish the main goal – providing a solid structure to facilitate success, sustainability, and increased efficiency.
