A self-drive car rental company headquartered in Bangalore, India, with an 80% market share across the country. The car sharing company is live in 28 cities with a fleet of 3000 plus cars. Customers can choose from a variety of cars ranging from BMW, Mercedes to Maruti Swift. So, if they want to travel with their family, they can take an SUV or if they want to go for a business meeting, they can take a Sedan, or if they just want to hang out with their friends, they can probably take a hatchback. The use case is simple, which is, solving the car-sharing problem. The customer can book a car by the app or the website.

Other than that, the team have started a new program called ZAP. In a nutshell, it is about a person buying a car and putting it on our platform when he is not using it. We have observed that traditionally a person uses his own car for almost 10 to 15 percent, meaning the utilization of the car is only 10 to 15 percent, but the cost of the car and the capital expenditure is high.

“What we are trying to solve with ZAP and which we have successfully solved in the last one year is, the person listing the car in our platform when he is not using it, we pass our customer bookings to him, and he generates revenue out of it. It has been a win-win situation for our customers, our associates.”

With the launch of ZAP, there arose a requirement for a sales and marketing automation tool. The team evaluated a couple of sales productivity tools, to understand which one would fit them the best. “I think, I personally evaluated around three to four tools which were further evaluated by the business team, they spent a good amount of time in evaluation because CRMs are generally a long-term investment. We were thinking about what the right fit for our business would be and LeadSquared definitely came out much better than the competitors for the kind of scale we are looking at.

How LeadSquared increased sales productivity for ZAP?

ZAP has been using LeadSquared for all their sales leads. Typically, a lead is a person who goes into a website and registers for a program. The person is then redirected to a landing page where they get a better understanding of the product. Team realized that they were able to save a lot of operational effort using the tool.

The team now finds contacting and engaging with customers easier. They can contact customers using automated triggers and sending out text messages or emails. They can also measure the performance and the interest of customers towards a program. This gives them the benefit of engaging with them at the right moment. “LeadSquared helps us with primary conversion and we have been happy using it for the past year.”

The API docs on the help portal have helped them solve most of their integration problems. However, during the process, they had generated some tickets regarding telephonic integration which was resolved by the LeadSquared support team in no time. They were quite happy with the timely response.
