Sales

Using Gold-Vision will increase the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns producing more leads.  Gold-VIsion allows you manage leads throughout the sales cycle.

There are obvious benefits to CRM such as opportunity management.  However some equally important aspects may be overlooked:

  • Quotation Management - Create multiple quotations from templates and pricelists.  Professional proposals and quotations take minutes rather than hours to produce.
  • Multi-currency - We understand that many businesses in the UK buy and sell products and services outside of the UK.
  • Revenue Forecasting - Get a better insight into cashflow giving you greater control.
  • Reporting - Reports are quick easy to create - for everyone, not just the IT department.

Here is a sample quotation summary using Gold-Vision.  Multiple Quotations can be created against a single opportunity each with different discount rates, TAX rates and in multiple currencies.  Gold-Vision is a true Multi-currency system designed by a UK chartered accountant.

Customer Service

It costs five times as much to gain a new customer than to keep one.  On this basis it makes sense to cherish your customers.  Many business suffer greatly by losing customers due to poor after sales service.  At CRM-UK, we pride ourselves on our customer loyalty.  We have achieved this loyalty primarily by putting our money where our mouths are and using the systems we implement and support.
