The challenge

  • Revenue sits across Salesforce and NetSuite, and leadership needed one view by business unit.
  • Quotas, subscriptions, and research points were tracked inconsistently.
  • Each acquisition brought a new team that needed its own business unit, quotas, and dashboards.

What we built

Finance integration

Salesforce to NetSuite integration review and improvements, with the integration user moved to a dedicated account.

Quotas and dashboards

Quotas by salesperson, account, and business unit, company and business unit revenue dashboards, and year-over-year change.

Scopes of work

A new SOW generator, template and terms updates, and a pre-sales checklist.

Sales workflow

Slack alerts for incoming leads and events, a lead assignment queue, stage entry and exit criteria, and TaskRay project access for sales.

Acquisitions

New business units, quotas, and revenue reporting for acquired companies.

The result

  • Leadership reviews revenue by business unit from Salesforce dashboards.
  • Newly acquired teams get quotas and reporting in the same system as everyone else.
  • Work ships in monthly sprints with a visible backlog.

Technology

Salesforce Sales Cloud, NetSuite, Slack, TaskRay, monday.com, HubSpot Sales Hub (evaluation).

Questions we hear

Can Salesforce and NetSuite share revenue data?

Yes. We maintain the integration between them so closed deals flow to NetSuite and revenue reporting in Salesforce matches finance.
