BaseCloud CRM – The Most Advanced South African CRM System

It might be a bold and slightly subjective statement, but we have more than enough reason to believe BaseCloud CRM is the most advanced Customer Relationship Management tool in South Africa.

How are we this confident about our software? To answer that question, you first need to ask yourself this:

Why do people use Customer Relationship Management software in the first place?

A CRM system is a software system that helps business owners nurture their relationships with their clients effectively. It should simplify your life, get things done faster, and automate mundane tasks.

In an increasingly competitive world, how you manage and use your business’s information will be the difference between success and failure. Therefore, using a quality CRM system is core to that concept.

What are the benefits of the BaseCloud CRM system?

Improve and automate your contact management

Every call, email, meeting, and touchpoint with your contacts can be tracked automatically. There’s no need to do this manually anymore – modern CRMs (like BaseCloud CRM) are connected to your inboxes and calendars.

Your customer satisfaction and retention improves

The easiest customers to convert are your current customers. Acquiring new customers is expensive, and when you know your customer (through constant communication), you are less likely to lose them and to upsell them to other services.

Increase your sales metrics and productivity

Using a reputable CRM system improves sales productivity by efficiently enhancing and hitting targets if you measure and track your performance. A CRM system far outweighs something like Excel to increase sales productivity.

You receive personalised customer interactions

Your CRM should come with lead tracking capabilities, so you know where your clients have originated from, albeit from billboards, your website, flyers or any other marketing channel.

Using this information allows you to reach out with relevant information individually tailored to your customer or prospect.

See your business’s productivity increase

With a CRM, you can easily automate and track regular administrative tasks like follow up emails and ‘catch up’ meetings. You’ll also be able to build reports on customers falling through the cracks.

Are there high revenue customers that account managers are not giving proper attention to? Is there low revenue, high effort clients?

You have a business to run, and your CRM system should be there to smooth things over. Suddenly tasks that used to take your staff hours to complete is now automated or only takes a few minutes.
