Established 25 years ago, family run Penta Foods prides itself on providing exceptional service and commitment to its customers\u2019 requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\">The Challenge<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a rapidy expanding company, Penta Foods needed to improve their existing Smartsheet implementation that drives their sales pipeline all the way from lead generation to customer satisfaction. <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\">The Solution<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visiting Penta Foods on-site, Smarter Business Processes guided senior management in a detailed analysis of their existing processes, both in and out of Smartsheet. Once the workflow was optimised, \u00a0it was implemented into Smartsheet from initial entry via WebForms, e-mail notifications to the responsible persons for action, and views &amp; reports allowing managers high level visibility on each phase of the process. The system was further refined using Zapier for automation and consistency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\">The Benefits<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the sales pipeline streamlined and automated, \u00a0providing greater visibility, real time data and removing duplication of data entry, staff members now have peace of mind and are able to focus \u00a0their attention on the areas of greatest value. \u00a0Much of the delays in the pipeline have been removed, allowing Penta Foods to focus on their customers instead of paperwork.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;
