Optimizing Allm Africa’s Sales Process & Project Management
Executive Summary
Allm Afya, a leading provider of mobile health solutions operating in various countries across Africa (Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, South Africa), needed a CRM and project management system. To streamline their sales processes, manage complex projects, and enhance team collaboration, it was vital for the company to have a unified system to track and provide an overview of their entire sales pipeline. Upon closure of deals, they also required a project management tool to effectively oversee project implementation.
Partnering with Redian Software, an authorized Zoho Partner, we implemented both Zoho CRM and Zoho Projects. This strategic move resulted in:
Improved visibility into both sales and projects
Enhanced team communication
A significant increase in overall efficiency
Challenges
Having multiple users across Africa, Allm faced numerous challenges. The key challenges included:
Difficulty in tracking activities across multiple countries, including the sales pipeline, lead management, deal closures, project progress, deadlines, and task assignments.
Teams operating in different countries (Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, South Africa) struggled with collaboration, communication, and coordination due to geographic barriers.
Scattered information and limited collaboration tools hindered team synergy and reduced their ability to work together effectively.
Challenges in managing and tracking sales leads, opportunities, and deals across different countries.
Reliance on manual methods for sales, project management, and communication resulted in fragmented data, making it difficult to gain a comprehensive view of the company’s operations.
Managing customer relationships across various regions was inconsistent, with no clear records of customer interactions, preferences, or needs.
The lack of detailed reports and analytics on sales and project performance hindered the company’s ability to make data-driven decisions.
These challenges slowed down project delivery, increased the risk of errors, and made it difficult for Allm Afya to scale their impact and achieve their ambitious goals in the healthcare sector.
