The engagement

Three stops, quoted from the note.

  1. Before

    The week as it was

    B2B sales across many stores with no CRM.

  2. The week

    What we built

    Sales Cloud for account-based selling, POS integration for inventory visibility, and a mobile path for field reps.

  3. What it was

    What stayed

    The job was one record the next store could trust, not a transformation slide.

Quoted from the note. The client is not named here.

Before, and the week

What the week looked like.

A regional grocery retailer. B2B, many stores, no CRM. Field reps kept buyers in spreadsheets. The same account existed three times. Purchase history lived in whoever last saved a file.

We put Sales Cloud under account-based selling, connected POS so inventory was visible on the account, and gave reps a mobile path. The job was one record the next store could trust, not a transformation slide.

What changed was operational: private sheets went away, duplicates stopped being the source of truth, and the same buyer was visible to every store. They asked not to be named. There is no published dollar figure for this work.

What changed

Where the same work fits

The same week, other desks.

  • Example

    Key accounts manager at a Riyadh FMCG distributor

    Today: Each branch keeps its own list for the same supermarket buyer.

    After: One account every branch reads, with the last order on it.

    Manufacturing and distribution
  • Example

    Sales lead at a Dubai food supplier

    Today: Reps keep chef contacts and order history on their own phones.

    After: The account holds the history, so the private lists go away.

    Restaurants and cafés
  • Example

    Trade sales manager at a US building supply chain

    Today: Contractors buy at several stores, and no store sees the others.

    After: The same buyer is visible to every store.

    Commerce Cloud
Examples of the work, not case studies. Roles and cities are typical of the desks we see.

The honest no

When we are the wrong partner.

The honest no: if the work is a software factory with a named delivery date, we are the wrong partner.

Ours looks like this

We work in retail and distribution and right now, leads go cold before anyone replies.

Industry
Problem

Brief: Retail. No shared account history across stores. An agent on a named process. A reviewer on the exceptions.
