Adopting a Customer-Centric Business Model with Odoo
Like many companies, ikonhouse, began their business operating manually. They reverted to platforms such as Excel, to manage their CRM and meet their KPI's, however, not having an integrated software created an array of communication difficulties for the company. They had multiple salespeople working on the same lead, wasting valuable time and resources. To ease communication, align tasks, and work with data efficiently, ikonhouse resorted to implementing the Odoo CRM, sales, inventory, procurement, website, and e-commerce, as well as, the marketing module. The company immediately recognized that all of its employees have become more productive and efficient in carrying out their daily tasks.
At Odoo, we recognized that the best time-saving design we could have is a customer-centric one. Having everything in terms of quotations, invoices, addresses, as well as, a straight integration with CRM has allowed ikonhouse to be effective, efficient, and better equipped to answers customer questions and tend to their needs. The process helped them realize that they could handle a larger volume of business with the same number of staff.
