CASE STUDY · THE CUSTOMER DATA PEOPLE
ORDER SYSTEM AND CRM INTEGRATION

Every sale credited to the right person.

Orders arrived through Linnworks, calls through Aircall and emails through Help Scout, but Pipedrive could not see who had last spoken to a customer. Flowbird connected all three to Pipedrive.

THE SOLUTION

The last person to speak to the customer owns the sale.

Every call, email and order is matched to a Pipedrive contact, or creates one. The last salesperson to make contact becomes the owner of the customer and their deals, and orders with no sales contact go to a separate pipeline.

✓Linnworks orders, mainly from Amazon, brought into Pipedrive
✓Aircall calls and Help Scout emails matched to the right contact
✓Ownership moves to the last salesperson in contact
✓Unassisted web orders kept in their own pipeline
