The challenge

Promoting growth without the right infrastructure

BESTMIX is a software company that specializes in tools for the food and feed industry and is a global leader in its niche sector. The company's sales managers were primarily focused on upselling to existing customers rather than pursuing new prospects, resulting in a growth bottleneck that needed to be addressed immediately.

No centralized CRM foundation

BESTMIX struggled with fragmented customer data in multiple disjointed systems. Without a unified database, sales managers were spending valuable time searching for customer information instead of reaching out to prospects and closing deals.

Inconsistent management of the sales process

Since there were no standardized sales processes, each manager worked differently. With business cycles lasting up to a year, this inconsistency made it impossible for leadership to track progress or identify bottlenecks across the organization.

Workflow for delayed lead assignment

New leads were taking up to a week to reach the relevant sales manager. This significant delay meant that potential customers had to wait, reducing conversion opportunities and causing frustration for both potential customers and internal teams.

The aim is to transform sales

BESTMIX needed more than just another CRM platform, but a comprehensive sales ecosystem that could

  • Establish unified customer data management across all touchpoints
  • Create standardized sales processes for consistent team performance
  • Instantly assign leads based on territory and region
  • Complete visibility of customer interactions and history
  • Enable efficient pipeline management and forecasting capabilities

How we did it

Comprehensive data migration and redesign of sales processes

1. data management and migration strategy

We started with a comprehensive data governance exercise to establish best practices for handling commercial data. BESTMIX's multi-year database contained numerous duplicates and inconsistencies that needed to be systematically cleansed. We implemented the ETL process where BESTMIX handled the extraction, we worked on the transformation to map the fields correctly in HubSpot and we managed the entire data loading process into the new system.

2. standardization of the sales process and pipeline design

We worked closely with the BESTMIX team to define standardized deal stages to be used consistently by all sales managers. Considering the one-year deal cycles, this standardization was crucial to keep track of the pipeline and ensure proper follow-up throughout the sales process. We designed customized sales pipelines that reflected the unique business model and industry requirements.

3. automated lead assignment and workflow creation

We implemented automated lead assignment based on country and region, eliminating the previous weeks-long delay. The system now instantly routes new leads to the appropriate sales manager, allowing for immediate follow-up. We also created automated workflows, including email templates for different scenarios, standardized meeting reports and the creation of tasks triggered by specific actions.

4. 360° customer view and system integration

Since BESTMIX's marketing team was already using HubSpot for email campaigns, integrating the sales team into the platform created powerful cross-departmental visibility. Sales managers can now see all marketing content that prospects have consumed and track website visits, while marketing gains access to sales data to run more targeted campaigns. As an interim solution, we also integrated the Freshdesk ticketing system with HubSpot, fulfilling one of the company's biggest requests for instant access to customer support history over the past few months.

5. sales automation and efficiency tools

We implemented extensive automation, including email templates for various scenarios (follow-ups after a call, scheduling meetings, quote follow-ups), standardized report templates for documenting meetings, and automatic creation of tasks triggered by sending emails and other activities to streamline daily operations.

Most important results

BESTMIX's sales department transformed from a fragmented, slow-response operation focused primarily on upselling existing customers to a streamlined, data-driven organization ready to aggressively pursue new prospects. The standardized processes, immediate responsiveness to inquiries and complete customer visibility allowed the company to shift its strategic focus to acquiring new customers in global markets while efficiently maintaining existing customer relationships.
