Business Problems

Before partnering with our team and integrating the Zoho suite of products, XA Group faced several challenges that hindered their operational efficiency and customer engagement:

1.  Insufficient Centralized Data Organization: XA Group struggled with disjointed systems for managing customer data, sales leads, and support tickets. This fragmentation led to inefficiencies in tracking interactions, a lack of visibility into the sales pipeline, and difficulty in understanding customer needs across regions.

2. Ineffective Lead Management: XA Group faced challenges in managing leads and tracking their progress through the sales funnel.

3. Limited Customer Support Capabilities: The company’s customer support system was less optimized, leading to delayed responses to client issues. They lacked a unified platform to efficiently handle customer queries, support tickets, and follow-ups.

4. Manual and Time-Consuming Processes: Many internal processes, such as document signing, data collection, and reporting, were manual, causing delays and reducing productivity.

5. Limited Access to Analytical Insights: XA Group was unable to leverage analytics effectively to gain insights into their sales performance, customer behavior, and service efficiency. XA Group lacked a clear view of key business metrics, making data-driven decision-making difficult.

6. Inconsistent Marketing Campaign Management: Marketing campaigns were not properly tracked, and the company faced challenges in engaging customers effectively through email, social media, and other channels.

Implementation

1. Zoho CRM

Zoho CRM was implemented to streamline dealer onboarding for XA Group by managing dealer data, approvals, and documentation within a unified system. A comprehensive lead-to-deal journey was created, ensuring a seamless process. After onboarding, a KYC form is sent to the dealer for verification. The system also facilitates the entire dealer onboarding process, including contract management and the dealer estimation summary. Additionally, it enables the creation of quotation directly within the CRM, allowing users to view, print, download, and forward quotations effortlessly. This ensures efficient and centralized management of all dealer-related activities.

2. Zoho Analytics

We designed a range of detailed reports and dashboards to give XA Group clear, actionable insights into their operations. For social media performance, we created dedicated dashboards for both their brands, CarhealX and Addenda, including ones for Twitter, traffic sources, page tracking, Instagram, and Facebook. These dashboards make it easy for the team to track engagement and understand where their audience is coming from.

We deployed multiple custom forms to streamline data collection and integration with Zoho CRM, capturing leads, dealer details, and feedback across various touchpoints. These forms include the Partner KYC Form for onboarding dealers, the Addenda Feedback Form for gathering customer insights, and the Request a Demo Form to simplify lead generation. This setup ensures a seamless flow of information and efficient management within the system.

Plus, dealers can easily fill out a feedback form, helping us gather insights to continuously improve the support experience.

7. Zoho Sign

We introduced digital signing for documents, such as dealer agreements and KYC forms, to make the process quicker and more efficient. Dealers can now sign important documents digitally, streamlining the entire workflow and saving time for everyone involved.

8. Zoho Campaign

Used for running marketing campaigns, helping XA Group reach out to targeted audiences with tailored email content to drive engagement and conversions.

9. Zoho Social

We used Zoho Social to manage social media posts and engagement, giving XA Group valuable insights into performance across channels like Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube.

By integrating Lead Chain with Facebook and Instagram, we were able to seamlessly capture leads directly from these platforms and bring them into Zoho CRM. This integration makes it easier for the team to track and respond to leads, all in one place.
