Edmond Spratt & Son was founded in 1938 by Edmond and Ita Spratt to become
County Waterford’s leading estate agent. Spratt Property Partners represent
Property Partners in mid and west Co. Waterford. With almost 70 years experience
in Co. Waterford and
the South East, Spratt Property Partners is regularly retained to advise local
and national public authorities, semi-state organizations, national and
international companies in addition to the company’s extensive private client
base. The company employs seven people at their office in Dungarven, Co.
Waterford. Spratts’ have implemented a sales management system built on Sage CRM
to support their company’s growth and to address the customer relationship side
of the business.
“In a challenging market, it is vital that our focus is on servicing our
clients’ needs, by actively selling and marketing property to our buyer
community”, explains Eamonn Spratt, Director, Spratt Property Partners. “We need
to monitor communications,
marketing and sales to ensure that we deliver the optimum services to our
vendors while exposing their property to as many potential buyers as possible.
Having considered several CRM applications, Spratts’ decided to proceed with the
web hosted PropertySelector built on the Sage CRM platform, as it gives everyone
complete flexibility in accessing critical business information wherever they
are.
Belgrave Ireland, one of Ireland’s leading providers of solutions to the
property industry, implemented the solution and customised it to suit the
company’s requirements. Spratts’ can now keep track of all activities involved
in providing services to their clients and buyers. They can now filter and match
their buyer database to available property stock and use innovative technology
to market and sell property including text messaging and high-quality marketing
material. “”By carefully tracking our buyers through the system, we are ensuring
that we give our clients the best possible opportunity of achieving a sale”,
continues Eamonn. “At all stages of the property cycle, we can analyse each and
every opportunity to ensure we take the appropriate actions to move each
transaction to a successful conclusion. The system prompts us to contact and
communicate with both vendor and purchasers to update as to the current status
of the transaction. Communication is critical”.
The PropertySelectorCRM solution provides all the tools and capabilities needed
to create and easily maintain a clear record of customers from first contact
through purchase and post-sales. Using the sales and marketing modules, Spratts’
CRM solution delivers a fast, flexible and, affordable solution that enables
closer relationships with customers. “We can work better as a team and provide
better service to our clients enabling us to keep ahead of our competition”,
says Eamonn. “We can now spend less time on administration and more time
communicating with our clients and buyers. By being able to access our critical
business information from any location, we can respond quickly and effectively
to the demands of the marketplace”.
The solution integrates with all Spratt’s Microsoft systems. This ensures that
all key business data such as appointment tasks and reminders can be
synchronized with the company’s mobile devices. Also, all incoming and outgoing
e-mails are filed against the property and person records.
Belgrave Ireland continues to consult with Spratts’ to ensure they are getting
the most from the system.
This CRM solution primarily allows us to focus on customer detail which shall
assist us in giving, an enhanced customer experience”, concludes Eamon.
