7. Nilkamals attempt to boost the effectiveness of
its sales people with Salesforce was being
stymied by an inability to efficiently link the
SaaS-CRM tool with Nilkamals ERP.
-Rishi Raj Gandotra
8. Nilkamals businesses are driven by a 600-strong sales
force spread across the country. As Nilkamals feet on
the street, they meet with product managers from,
say, a manufacturing company who would purchase
plastic crates or other products from them.

9. But Salesforce didnt have access to critical
business information sitting within the
companys ERP. And without that sales people
had their hands tied.

10. For a sales guy to be able to make a sale, he needs to
know a clients latest delivery status, pending
payments, etcetera. All of this information resided
within the ERP,. As a result, despite having a cloud-
based CRM model, Nilkamals sales found itself
spending a disproportionate amount of time talking
with managers at head office over lengthy, long-
distance calls. That manual dependency negated
some of Salesforces advantages.
-Rishi Raj Gandotra
11. With a vision of empowering the sales team, Nilkamal
purchased 200 Salesforce.com licenses for the companys
key sales agents. But soon realized that Salesforce alone
wasnt going to get the job done. Nilkamal, found a novel
way to integrate SAP with Salesforce.
