Custom marketing automation with contact matching, clear ownership and measurable response times. Integrations and custom development # Marketing automation that connects enquiries with sales A new enquiry should reach the person who can answer it, with enough context to act. SVS Digital connects forms, CRM records, email tools and sales tasks so your team can follow a contact from the first request to the next agreed step. We build around your existing tools and communication rules.

Match an existing contact where possible and flag uncertain duplicates for review. Staff should not have to retype an email notification to create a useful CRM record. ### Lead assignment and sales tasks Route enquiries by service, region, account owner or another agreed rule. Create the task, deadline and internal reminder. A status change can move the workflow forward so colleagues see what has already happened and who is responsible. ### Follow-up with defined stop rules Connect the CRM with your email tool where the required interface exists. Define the audience, message, delay and trigger before launch. Replies, status changes and unsubscribes must affect the sequence so the next message matches the actual conversation. ### Reporting on response and handoff Bring enquiry sources, response times and open tasks into an agreed view. Separate received contacts from qualified opportunities and completed sales. This makes it possible to find a slow handoff without treating every form submission as revenue. ### Example: a service enquiry becomes a sales task A visitor submits a form. The workflow updates the contact, records the requested service and assigns an owner. An internal reminder is sent if the task remains open. Any customer follow-up follows the agreed communication settings and stops when the relevant reply or status change arrives. This is an illustrative sequence, not a campaign activated on your behalf. ## How does implementation work? - 01 ### Trace a real enquiry Follow the contact from form submission to a reply and proposal. Identify missing context, repeated entry and delayed handoffs. - 02 ### Agree CRM and communication rules Define required fields, owners, statuses, contact matching, sending conditions and stop conditions. - 03 ### Test one complete flow Use internal test contacts to check new records, returning customers, duplicate submissions, replies and unsubscribes. - 04 ### Measure response and completion Track first-response time, complete records and unresolved tasks. Extend the flow after the team has used and reviewed it. [BizRent connected sales and fleet operations project](https://www.svs-digital.com/case-studies/bizrent-fleet-operations-automation) From our projects ## BizRent: connected customer acquisition, sales and operations For BizRent, we connected outreach, sales activities and fleet operations, including follow-up and better operational visibility. The published case study explains the scope and basis of the reported results. Those outcomes describe that project; your own response and conversion measures need a baseline. [Read the case study](https://www.svs-digital.com/case-studies/bizrent-fleet-operations-automation) ## What determines scope and cost? Marketing automation pricing depends on contact sources, tools, workflows and existing data quality. The proposal separates integrations, data cleanup, workflow setup and support. One form-to-CRM connection is a practical starting point. More channels and sequences can follow once contact matching and ownership work consistently. ### What to bring to the first conversation - Your CRM, forms and email tools. - One typical enquiry-to-proposal journey. - Assignment rules and approved follow-up content. - The first problem to fix: data entry, response time or handoff. ## Frequently asked questions ### How is marketing automation different from CRM? A CRM stores contacts, opportunities and activities. Marketing automation triggers agreed actions based on events or status changes. Integration keeps those actions aligned with the records your sales team uses. ### Do we need to replace our CRM? We first assess its existing features, interfaces and data quality. A connection may be enough. A replacement is considered only if specific limitations prevent the workflow you need. ### Does this include automatic bulk email? The scope can be limited to internal tasks, record updates and reminders. Customer messages need agreed recipients, content, triggers and stop rules, including the communication preferences maintained in your tools. ### How do you prevent duplicate contacts or messages? We define contact identifiers, matching rules and a record of completed steps. Tests cover repeated form submissions, retried transfers and changed statuses. Unclear matches can go to a person. ### How do we measure results? Compare response time, record completeness, overdue tasks and opportunity progression before and after implementation. Connect revenue only where completed deals can be reliably traced. Automation alone does not guarantee more sales. ## Start with one task your team repeats.
