Objectives
To keep delivering outstanding support to all their clients Paramount Staffing knew they needed a robust and highly effective CRM system.
They were looking for a system that could do more than just facilitate sales communication. They wanted a system that would allow them to train and improve team member performance.
They needed a mobile App that was not a “Thin App”, a tool that’s powerful like the desktop version.
They had also had poor adoption with other CRM’s. It had to be something the sales team really wanted to use, because it helped them (not just “tracked” them).
During our selection process we identified FreeAgent to be, and we still believe it to be, the best choice.

FreeAgent is built with the sales person in mind. It’s built to enable them to do their job and you can’t ask for more from a CRM than that.”
