FINANCIAL SERVICES CRM
Financial Services CRM provides at-a-glance viewing of the complete customer relationship along with insight into the customers portfolio, history, household, objectives, risk tolerance and interests. Centralized book of business and customer information enables staff to provide proactive product and policy management, easily create new quotes, automate renewal processes, grow the customer relationship and increase customer share.
360 DEGREE CUSTOMER VIEW
Customer knowledge provides the single-greatest path to profitable organic growth in the financial services industry. The Financial Services Edition provides complete front-to-back office client information in a centralized 360 degree customer view. With one integrated system, staff view all client marketing interactions, sales communications, customer support incident history, client contacts and preferences, client documentation, complete purchasing history and outstanding sales and receivables information.
HOUSEHOLD MANAGEMENT
Household account viewing consolidates contacts, activities, portfolios and opportunities into a central household view in order to provide a more thorough understanding of each customer's single household financial position, risk tolerance, goals and synergistic line of business cross-sell opportunities.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Financial Services portfolio management displays all of an account's or household's financial products and consolidated position in a single view. By providing a single 360 degree financial product sales history and product portfolio view, financial services staff can schedule renewal processing, identify complimentary solutions, logically promote cross-selling and up-selling opportunities and have the insight to make comprehensive recommendations.
MORE EFFECTIVE SELLING
Only Afxisi provides native support for individual (consumer) account profiles, selling methodologies and structured sales processes. Opportunity management advances well beyond opportunity identification. The sale opportunity scorecard provides financial services sales professionals with a fact-based scoring method to quickly qualify sale opportunities and identify those which can be predictably won. The opportunity strategy then provides a comprehensive framework and roadmap for sales strategy, execution, progress measurement and predictable results. Providing a proven and repeatable sales process increases sales win rates as well as institutionalizes the framework for success so that less experienced sales people can replicate the same systemic actions, patterns and behaviors as the organization's most successful producers.
SUGGESTIVE SELLING FOR INCREASED CUSTOMER SHARE
Financial services organizations must make the most of information available via customer interactions by systematically obtaining, maintaining and sharing it across all customer touch points and organizational locations. Growing customer loyalty, profitability and longevity are critical success factors. Growing customer profitability means more effective touch points, more cross selling of financial products and greater customer share.
REFERRAL MANAGEMENT AUTOMATION
Financial Services CRM provides the most comprehensive referral management in the online hosting industry. Customer and sale opportunity referral designations can be linked to other customers, staff, departmental operations, marketing campaigns and other user-defined referral sources. Referral workflow can automatically forward customer opportunities to the right destination based on customer type, financial product, location or other user-defined variables. Referral tracking provides an audit trail of past referrals and referral reporting provides real-time information and analysis of referral participation and effectiveness.
GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT (GLBA) COMPLIANCE
In the highly competitive Financial Services environment, regulatory requirements and privacy concerns share top priority with customer satisfaction. Afxisi is the only online CRM application certified for Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Title V, Subtitles A and B compliance, NIST and ISO 27001.
BEST PRACTICES SUPPORT
In an increasingly competitive environment, sales and customer service mistakes come at a higher price. Financial services organizations who fail to document customer facing processes and procedures extend user learning curves, repeat mistakes, miss sale opportunities and erode customer confidence. The web-based Content Management System (CMS) is a knowledge-base which delivers financial institution specific instruction, processes and best practices for consistent performance and a simplified user experience. Financial services best practices and company specific procedures can be created and linked to CRM processes in order to complete tasks accurately and consistently.
STAFF PRODUCTIVITY AND ROI
Organizations don't achieve ROI by putting data into a system. They achieve ROI when manual business processes are automated and productivity increases. Business process automation is the answer to the question of how to do more with less. Only Afxisi Financial Services CRM provides a Workflow Designer to permit the custom configuration and automation of referral forwarding, process approvals, alert notifications, automatic renewals and other user-defined activities. By empowering users to automate otherwise manual activities, Afxisi raises the CRM system value, payback and ROI.
