About the Client
The client is a leading B2B corporate training and workforce transformation provider. It serves multiple Fortune 1000 enterprises across Europe and North America, managing an annual contract pipeline exceeding $150 million.
The Challenge
Despite generating a high volume of inbound inquiries, the client's growth was stalled by disconnected tracking systems and inefficient, manual sales workflows.
They approached Aegis Softtech for a centralized sales execution engine to automate lead routing, drive predictable pipeline conversions, and enforce structured qualification stages.
- Leads Dropping Through Cracks: The client was manually exporting inbound inquiries from marketing platforms and assigning them via weekly spreadsheets. This was resulting in lost leads and delayed follow-ups.
- Inconsistent Lead Response Times: Their sales representatives took an average of 48 to 72 hours to make first contact with inbound prospects. This was leading to high drop-off rates before initial discovery calls.
- Non-Standardized Sales Stages: The client’s regional sales offices used conflicting qualification criteria and custom deal stages. It made accurate sales forecasting nearly impossible for executive leadership.
- Zero Executive Visibility: The leadership lacked real-time insight into sales velocity, representative activities, and conversion blockages. They relied heavily on outdated end-of-month manual reports.
The Solution
Our Microsoft Dynamics team delivered a modernized sales execution ecosystem centered around automated lead lifecycle management.
Unified Sales Platform & Automated Routing
We eliminated manual handoffs and centralized lead capture:
- Dynamics 365 Sales Cloud Deployment: We centralized all account, opportunity, and prospect data into Microsoft Dataverse to create a single source of truth for the client’s global sales force.
- Automated Lead Scoring & Distribution: Our experts built real-time lead routing logic in Power Automate. This evaluates prospect company size, service interest, and region to route qualified leads instantly to the right Account Executive.
Guided Process Maps & Executive Intelligence
We embedded structured selling protocols into daily sales workflows:
- Standardized Business Process Flows: We configured interactive stage-gate interfaces within Dynamics 365. This guides their reps through discovery, solution design, proposal delivery, and closing.
- Real-Time Pipeline Telemetry: Our Dynamics 365 experts built embedded Power BI dashboards. This gives their leadership live insights into win/loss ratios, pipeline health, and deal velocity.

What Made the Difference?
SLA-Driven Automated Lead Re-Assignment
We configured automated Service Level Agreement (SLA) timers inside Dynamics 365 Sales, ensuring hot leads are not stalled in inbox queues. Leads are automatically escalated and reassigned to an available rep in the active queue if left unattended for over two hours. This guarantees rapid prospect engagement.
Embedded Outlook & Teams Engagement Logs
Native Microsoft 365 integration eliminates the need for reps to manually record meeting notes and email correspondence inside the CRM. Sales reps utilize Microsoft Outlook and Teams to automatically update the prospect’s timeline without leaving their workspace.
Automated Re-Engagement Nurture Loops
We established automated background triggers for cold or stalled opportunities. Past leads are systematically re-qualified over time by automatically triggering personalized content drips and scheduling a strategic re-engagement task for the rep 60 days later.
