Automation of Onboarding & Payment Process for Professional Service Provider in Dubai
We at ExSol Agency teamed up with Extent, a professional service provider in Dubai, to streamline their customer onboarding process. Before our help, Extent's process was slow and prone to mistakes, causing delays and extra work for their sales and accounting teams. They needed a way to speed things up and cut down on errors.
Our main goal was to automate the steps from when a customer signs a contract to when they start getting services. This meant creating a system that would handle documents, update customer information, and make sure payments were tracked without people having to do it all manually.
Extent's old way of doing things involved a lot of manual work. After a customer signed a contract, someone had to update the status in their CRM system by hand. The accounting team had to check payments before starting services, and they had to send out payment reminders themselves if a customer didn't pay on time. They used different tools like Slack and email to talk to each other, which made it hard to keep track of everything.
We used a robuts and flexible automation tool n8n to create a bunch of automated workflows integrated with tools the client was already familiar with, like PandaDoc, HubSpot CRM and Monday.com, to make the transition smoother. Here's what we set up:
By implementing a comprehensive automation workflow, we successfully enhanced operational efficiency by up to 15% across sales, accounting, and fulfillment departments for Extent. This not only streamlined their customer onboarding and payment processes but also granted management a clear, real-time overview of payment statuses and cash flow. The result was a significant leap in productivity and a solid foundation for sustained business growth.
