Our Challenge
Achieve was experiencing a noticeable decline in sales due to outdated technology and manual lead handling processes. Their existing system lacked efficiency, causing delays in lead qualification, data synchronization, and student follow-ups. As competition increased, the absence of automation made it difficult to respond quickly to new prospects, resulting in poor conversion rates and missed opportunities. Additionally, the platform struggled to maintain consistency between frontend user actions and backend CRM workflows, creating data gaps inside Salesforce. Integrating multiple third-party services without disrupting existing operations also posed a major challenge. Achieve needed a scalable, fully automated solution that could support growth and ensure accurate, real-time lead management.
Solution Provided
To solve Achieve’s challenges, Code Genesis re-engineered the entire lead flow with modern automation and CRM-driven intelligence. We built robust APIs that dynamically created and qualified leads based on real-time user actions on the website. All lead activities were routed directly into Salesforce, giving the team a unified dashboard for monitoring student interest, communication history, and conversion potential. Our engineers improved backend performance using Django REST Framework, ensuring the infrastructure could support surging user volumes without downtime. Third-party services like ClearoutEmail, ClearoutPhone, Zoom, ChargeOverInvoice, and CLEP were integrated to enhance data validation and improve enrollment workflows. A responsive React.js interface provided students with a smoother experience, resulting in better engagement and higher intent.
Key Highlights:
- Automated Lead Handling: Leads created, validated, and qualified through smart API triggers.
- Unified CRM Workflow: Centralized Salesforce dashboard for seamless tracking and follow-ups.
- Scalable Infrastructure: Backend optimized to handle rapid student growth with no performance loss.
- Enhanced User Experience: A modern UI that improves retention and supports student decisions.
