Sales Forecasting & CRM Redesign
Client: TeraGo
Industry: Telecom & IT Services
Scope: B2B provider of AWS cloud, connectivity, and data center solutions across Canada
(Annual revenue: $65M | 200 staff | 2 active facilities)
Role: Director, Strategic Initiatives
Period: 06/2016 – 04/2019
Challenge:
TeraGo’s sales teams relied on outdated tools — an old version of Microsoft Dynamics, manual Excel-based forecasts, and no lead management system. Forecasts were slow, inaccurate, and difficult to trust. Sales processes lacked structure, customer data was unreliable, and reporting was time-consuming and inconsistent.
What I led:
As Director of Strategic Initiatives, I led the company-wide Salesforce CRM transformation. I oversaw platform selection, managed implementation across departments, and redesigned the entire lead-to-order process — all while aligning stakeholders from Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Finance.
What I delivered:
Selected Salesforce Cloud + Pardot based on executive and departmental requirements
Piloted and delivered a $500K CRM implementation across 100+ users
Redesigned sales process from lead intake to order fulfillment
Built forecasting, pipeline, and performance dashboards for teams and executives
Implemented a JIRA-based support workflow for continuous CRM improvements and user requests
Established ongoing data management protocols to support better customer insights
Business Results:
✅ 3× increase in lead conversion
✅ Forecast accuracy improved from 50% to 85%
✅ Leads processed within 5 minutes via automated routing
✅ Stronger pipeline visibility and better sales management
✅ Higher employee morale through better tools and support
