Challenges
The company relied heavily on manual processes to manage and assign high-volume leads. They had to switch between multiple systems to get the right details about a lead, which resulted in confusion and poor adoption from their field agents. Following were the major challenges faced by the company
- Lead leakage due to ineffective lead management

- Poor debt collection and recovery rate and
- Lack of a central dashboard to view field activities
Solution
We offered Dista Sales, our field force management software, to refine the company’s field sales operations.
- Our system used a combination of area pin codes and agent home location, enabling managers with a simplified lead allocation process. Dista Sales automated lead assignment by considering multiple business variables like proximity, capacity, and availability. Leads were mapped to the right agent, significantly reducing lead leakage and streamlining lead management.
- Dista Sales designed a systematic home inspection process. The field inspectors verified the progress of the under-construction site and captured visit details on the dedicated mobile app. This was a critical step towards reducing manual documentation and heavy paperwork.
- Our platform auto-allocated delinquent cases to the right collection officer. It facilitated capturing details of every collection visit on the mobile app to maintain transparency, resulting in faster case resolution.
- The system enabled senior leaders to have multiple reporting capabilities by offering agent attendance reports, expense management of agents, tracking distance travelled by field agents to reach customer locations, and more.
