11. No Real Time Data
o Coach and Partner data was held in 10+ spreadsheets a season
o Program wide coach placement numbers were not readily
available to anyone in the organization
12 Step Coach Placement Process
o The majority of all coach placement activities landed on staff
o Maintaining coach placement activities was very staff dependant
Data Nightmare
o Staff were focused on data entry instead of coach recruitment
o Data could not be easily checked for inconsistencies
Challenges
12. Step 1: Explore Volunteer Management Systems
o Existing systems were not ideal for coaching specific volunteer
management
o Limited field customization ... we could not collect data we needed for
existing evaluation or grant reporting purposes
Step 2: Explore CRM Systems
o Experience working with nonprofits
o Customizable
o Able to integrate with other systems
o Accessible to our coaches and partners
Step 3: Find Developers
o Experience working with nonprofits
o Responsive
RFP Process/ Why Did We Go
With Salesforce
14. Extensive discovery process
Coaches
o Update their information
o Search for a team to coach
o Approval process
Partners
o Partners can view and manage organizations
o Update their profile
o Receive automatic notifications about matches
The idea was to include Coaches and Partners in the Coach search,
selection, and decision process. This not only frees staff time, it allows
for personal information to be up to date, accurate, and easily updated
by the coach/partner contact themselves.
Solution and a Demo
15. Results
For the 1st time ever...Real Time Data!
Data are easily pulled and shared via reports and/or dashboards
Staff can:
o Accept applications, track open positions, manage partner requests
o See the entire coaching history of a volunteer and the total number of coaches any
partner has ever had
Interactive Coach Placement Process
Partners add coaching opportunities, review prospective volunteers and
update their status throughout the season
Coaches can initiate the coach placement process and request teams
that interest them
Decentralized Data Entry
Coach/Partner applications are automatically added into SDFC via a
web-to-lead
16. The Learnings

Depending on the scope of your project... it may
take over your life. :)
Allow ample time to complete (and test) what you
build
Select your partners carefully
How do you know if your system is working?
o Listen to the users.
17. Broader access to SFDC
o Additional staff
o Chapter Leaders
LMS/SFDC Bridge
o Integration between Absorb LMS and Salesforce
Turning Portals into Communities
o Incorporating social elements into our customer
interface (e.g. Chatter, Voting Up)
