Release of a collection from 16 ready-made solutions for business automation
The Simple Business company, the resident of Skolkovo Foundation and developer of the CRM system of the same name, released a collection from 16 ready-made solutions for automation of business of the companies of different fields of activity. The Fund reported about it on September 3, 2020.
For the beginning of September, 2020 in Russia only 17% of the companies use CRM systems. Generally for maintaining the customer base. At the same time there are priority an increase in efficiency and formation of loyal audience.
The solutions proposed by "Simple business" are adapted for automation of the service industry, online stores, fitness clubs, call centers, real estate agencies, car services, travel agencies, printing houses, web studios, courier services, the construction organizations and also legal, medical, logistic, production and the IT companies. The range of the directions is going to be expanded.
CRM services as it stands do not satisfy to business needs. At the same time potential is huge. Recently we conducted a research and asked the Russian companies whether they plan and after a pandemic to switch over to a remote operation mode. 48% of heads of the companies said that they are going to work in whole or in part far off. Business leaves from a universalization, preferring industry solutions. Standard programs do not answer requests as sales in many respects are defined by specific niche factors. Needs of courier service differ from requirements of the metallurgical enterprise, and the program suitable for travel agency will not help to earn to online store. We constantly analyze requirements of the companies: as soon as noticed a tendency to changes, at once began to develop a packet of industry solutions. |
As note in the company, one more problem interfering development of automation of business in Russia – absence at many developers CRM of specialists in implementation. As a result implementations from the outsourcing partner companies which only large corporations can pay services (about 150-200 thousand rubles) are offered the organizations. In "Simple business" implementation of industry solutions will cost by 3-4 times cheaper as work is performed directly by specialists of the company. The CRM setup takes on average 5-7 days.
Automation is of great importance for development of the Russian business, especially after COVID crisis when increase in efficiency and cost reduction began to play a crucial role. It is important to understand what slows down implementation of CRM technologies and to propose alternative solutions. The CRM 'Simple Business' developer pays special attention to a research of requirements of the domestic companies. Therefore the industry systems created specially under needs of specific industries become such demanded. Implementation of pointwise configured industry CRM helps to increase business performance, and it is visible on digits: to sales growth, increase in number of clients and repeated addresses, fall forward of service of buyers. |
