2. Flexibility and Adaptability

Implementing a contact management software solution will of necessity compel business decision makers around Massachusetts to consider their existing business processes and how effective and efficient they are. Initial planning and assessment will bring forth serious discussion of these business processes and may lead to changes in how a business cycle is managed.

When performing the initial assessment, questions must be asked regarding the flexibility of a contact management software solution in delivering effective sales force automation and contact center management that mirrors how a business is intended to operate. The contact management software should not become the technical tail that wags the business dog.

Ask questions of your contact management software partner such as:

  • Do you have a specific business module in the contact management software that deals with my business vertical eg real estate, medical practice, attorney's offices in Massachusetts?
  • We have a unique selling point involved in selling our product that requires delivery by a key individual in a team, how will the contact management software convey information to that key individual and who is notified if that does not happen ?
  • We operate across several sites, how will customer facing staff at one site be notified of developments with a customer at another location by the contact management software?
  • 3. Ease of Use for Adoption by Users

    Implementing a contact management software solution is a key essential in implementing a business information strategy, however no matter how good the solution it will face considerable difficulties and resultant cost implications if users are unable to quickly adapt to and adopt the contact management software solution.

    Contact center management, whether it is a dedicated contact center or a pool of staff already within the Massachusetts business who just happen to pick up the telephone, will want to be able to react and take information down while they are on the telephone in real time. How fast will the contact management software solution respond, can it be opened quickly from wherever they are located, and how fast can they use the contact management software to input customer information as a consequence of the telephone call?

    In this instance you should consider asking your contact management software partner questions such as:

  • How similar is the user interface to your existing business application packages such as the word processor or spreadsheet application you currently use?
  • What user training is available for employees to come to grips with the contact management software solution and what costs will this incur?
  • If you are using a contact management software solution as part of sales force automation, will a sales representative at a clients location be able to telephone the office and obtain customer history in real-time or be required to wait, and if not how long will that wait be?
  • Ask for a demonstration on your hardware of the contact management software so you can see how long it takes to open up, both from initial opening the application and when the application is simply minimized but running in the background.
  • 4. Scalability

    Contact management software, sales force automation and contact center management are all phrases that are associated with big blue chip enterprise class businesses around Massachusetts that have the budget to throw at such management tools. The fact is that this is no longer the case and these tools are available for small and medium sized businesses in Massachusetts with a check book to match, however that is not to suggest that a small business has any desire to remain small.

    How a contact management software solution can grow to meet your expanding business is a key issue to consider before committing yourself to purchase.

    Some questions to ask here include:

  • How will I add new sales representatives to the contact management software database?
  • How will the contact management software handle dividing geographical areas up into territories and allocating them to a sales representative?
  • If I open a new business site in Massachusetts, how will the contact management software deliver information to that new location and what cost items will be incurred?
  • My business has several discrete markets that it operates in, how will the contact management software handle customers common across these sectors?
