Our Values

Appropriate

The CRM system that's right for one, may not be right for another. We'll make sure your needs are met.

Cost Effective

We know cost is an issue for any size company. We pride ourselves in offering CRM systems to match your budget.

Shared

From choosing the appropriate system to deployment and post deployment training we help you make the most of your investment by educating you and your staff.

What does Stephen Pond Consulting do?

If you need to find answers to questions like "How many leads did we receive last month?", "Where did my leads come from?", "How much revenue did that marketing campaign generate?", "What does our sales forecast look like next month?", "How many prospects do we have in this territory?", and you did not have the tools to generate answers like this quickly, or even at all, then I have been in your shoes. I have been in positions where I needed answers, with no budget and very little resources, especially compared to the technology available today, and made it work. Not only was I able to provide upper management with the information needed to make decisions about the business, I armed them with a powerful sales and marketing tool to help find new customers, and enhance the existing relationships with the customers we already had.

I wish I could tell you that everything I have done has been perfect, but like you, I have had to learn what works and what does not work. I am here to provide you with the tools and the intelligence to enhance your sales, marketing and support efforts, and share the mistakes and the successes I have endured over the last 13 years of what is now considered CRM (Customer Relationship Management)..

CRM Consulting

Whether you are just starting down the path with a CRM strategy, or you are looking for some ideas, I can provide you with the answers. I strongly believe in knowledge transfer and will make sure that you and your team is equipped with the information you are seeking when implementing a CRM system.
