Salesforce Engagement Success Story: Empowering an Upper Midmarket Manufacturing Company with Optimal Salesforce Contract Renewal

SCHEDULE A free consultation
At The Negotiator Guru, we recently had the privilege of working with an upper midmarket manufacturing company to navigate their Salesforce contract renewal process. Our client had two primary objectives: to validate the competitiveness of their rates and to optimize their license footprint based on their actual platform utilization. Through our strategic approach, we achieved outstanding results, securing cost savings of $573,000 and cost avoidance of $952,000 within the first year alone.

Our Approach:
To ensure a successful engagement, we applied our trusted 4-step IT Software Negotiation Process, tailored specifically to address the unique needs of the manufacturing industry:

Step 1) Discovery:
We conducted interviews with key stakeholders within the client's organization to gain comprehensive insights into their historical utilization of Salesforce. By understanding how they had leveraged the platform in previous years, we were able to uncover valuable opportunities for improvement.

Step 2) Strategy:
Recognizing the importance of aligning with the client's global business requirements, we facilitated an internal workshop. This collaborative session served as a platform to identify and gain consensus on the client's specific needs, ultimately creating a forward-thinking conceptual roadmap that would guide our negotiation strategy.

Step 3) Negotiate:
Armed with a deep understanding of the client's Salesforce utilization and their strategic roadmap, we conducted thorough rate benchmarking. This analysis allowed us to accurately assess the competitiveness of their rates and advise the client on the potential for cost savings. Through effective negotiation techniques, we successfully secured a contract that was both right-sized and right-priced for their evolving needs.

The Remarkable Results:
Our engagement delivered remarkable outcomes for the client. Within the first year alone, they realized substantial cost savings of $573,000 and achieved cost avoidance of $952,000. Beyond the financial gains, our collaboration empowered the client with a significant technology uplift. By optimizing their Salesforce contract and aligning it with their specific requirements, we ensured that they had the ideal platform to drive their business forward.

At The Negotiator Guru, we are committed to empowering organizations in the manufacturing industry with favorable negotiation outcomes. This success story exemplifies our ability to secure substantial cost savings while providing clients with tailored solutions that align with their strategic objectives.
