Fullcast helped Iterable build better territories that drive more sales, as well as automate GTM activities for RevOps efficiency.
Iterable is a cross-channel marketing platform that powers unified customer experiences and empowers you to create, optimize and measure every interaction across the entire customer journey.
Iterable’s sales reps were allowed a certain number of accounts based on geographical data (which were assigned within Google spreadsheets), but there was no way to ensure equitable territory assignment.
This led to an environment in which sales managers within the same geographical area would fight for the best accounts.
Since most of the work was being conducted manually through spreadsheets, there was no way to ensure that the data that informed territory assignments was clean or accurate. This made it even more difficult to create a workflow in which leads could be assigned fairly with minimal human intervention needed.
In addition, Iterable was working toward a goal of doubling the size of their organization within the next year. They needed to find a way to streamline territory assignment and clean up data in a way that would allow them to meet their growth goals.
Fullcast solved Iterable’s challenges by providing:
Visual Territory Planning
“I was looking for something to visually show me how we can create an equitable distribution of territories randomly, but also strategically,” says David Zwerin, Iterable’s senior director of sales operations. Fullcast’s visual territory segmentation tool enabled the Iterable team to assign territories in an equitable and transparent way, resulting in an environment where all sales reps would have equal opportunities for success.
Automated Territory Assignment
Without a way to automate the assignment of territories to sales reps, Iterable’s sales operations team would have to spend resources manually assigning accounts and performing the resulting necessary spreadsheet updates. Fullcast allowed Iterable to free up resources by automating the assignment of territories based on a predetermined set of rules set by the sales operations team. This allowed the team to focus their attention on driving growth instead of performing tedious tasks.
The time invested in account changes and updates was a significant portion of the ops job,” says Zwerin. “With Fullcast support and nightly sync, we got essential time back and a huge savings from an operational burden.”
Data Cleansing
“While we could operationally create a platform for creating territories, it still required a lot of human touch to see whether or not these accounts were actually the right accounts,” says Zwerin. “Sometimes the system doesn’t catch bad data, and something might not be accurate. "Without accuracy checks in place, a simple spreadsheet error could have rippling ramifications throughout Iterable’s entire sales operations infrastructure. Fullcast provided guardrails to ensure that all data collected would be accurate and any duplicates would be removed.
Thanks to Fullcast, Iterable was able to drastically cut the time it took to develop and launch a territory plan down to a 60 day rollout. According to Zwerin, “Our leadership team said, ‘This is the most amazing rollout of territories the organization has ever had.’”
