Sourcing Allies – which has a presence

in

Sweden,

China,

U.S. and U.K. – was keen on moving away from traditional sales techniques and towards digital in order to improve sales and identify and manage their clients more efficiently.

“We wanted to find a more efficient way to conduct sales that wasn’t only about going to trade fairs and ordering beers and chicken wings with uninterested customers,” said Eric Bengtson, CEO, Sourcing Allies. “We were determined to transform the way we did sales and also how we handled leads and communication in a more streamlined and automated fashion.”

Since 2006, when it was founded, Sourcing Allies has been sourcing and manufacturing industrial goods from China and other low-cost countries for customers in the U.S. and Europe.

https://eprnews.com/ The company knew that it offered a valued service and decided that its focus while moving forward was to get better at communicating what it did and selling those services to clients who were looking for sourcing agents like them.

“Together with Up Strategy Lab, we were able to use modern techniques and methodologies such as the Value Proposition Canvas and Business Model Canvas to reflect on who our core customers are and what we offered them as a business,” said Bengtson. “We were then able to design a company vision that was tailored for the partners we were interested in collaborating with.”

With the help of Up Strategy Lab, Sourcing Allies was able to implement and automate various systems aimed at optimizing the company’s internal sales processes and lead generation by strategically implementing a lead generator that was integrated with various modern software tools and customer relationship management systems such as Zapier, Hubspot and Mailchimp.

This has led to a shortening of sales lead times from two years to six months.

“This was possible as we are now able to identify serious potential customers and reach out to them exactly at the point they require our help,” said Niclas Bengtson, vice president (sales), Sourcing Allies.

Lead costs have been reduced from $2,000 to just $100 and sales conversions have gone up from 0.7 percent to 20 percent, a drastic increase from just a year ago.

By using modern software tools and creative thinking methodologies, Sourcing Allies was able to build an experimental process that is constantly optimizing itself to improve the quality of leads, communication and sales outreach.

As part of an industry that is known to be traditional and old fashioned in the way business was conducted, Sourcing Allies has proved that with the right partnerships, an organization does not need to be close to Silicon Valley to adopt digital best practices.
