Current Setup

Missional Marketing relies on Salesforce as their central system to manage customer data and campaign workflows. Salesforce tracks the approval status of Google Grant accounts, collects creative assets, bills clients, and sets KPIs for both subscription-based and one-off campaigns, such as Christmas and Easter events. They run advertising campaigns across Google and Facebook while also offering services to improve website traffic and functionality.

While Missional Marketing has well-structured processes in Salesforce, they identified a critical need for integrating data into a single, centralized system. Account managers were manually tracking campaigns and budgets, switching between multiple platforms to collect and compile information. This approach proved both time-consuming and prone to errors, highlighting the importance of having all data consolidated in one place for seamless operations.

Problem Statement

Missional Marketing needed a solution to address several operational inefficiencies:

  • Disconnected Data: Salesforce housed all customer-related information, but it lacked a direct connection to automatically update reports and dashboards when services were added or KPIs changed.
  • Manual Tracking: Campaigns and budgets were managed manually across multiple platforms, requiring significant effort to ensure accuracy. While effective, this process was complex and demanded constant attention, underscoring the need for a centralized system to streamline operations and reduce the reliance on manual interventions.
  • Inefficient Workflows: Account managers spent considerable time switching between accounts and platforms to gather data, which was both complex and required meticulous attention to detail.
  • Manual Updates for New Services: Whenever clients added new services, account managers were required to manually update reports and dashboards to reflect these changes. This process was not only tedious and time-consuming but also diverted valuable resources away from more strategic tasks, underscoring the need for an integrated solution to automate updates and centralize data.
