Revamping Operational Efficiency
TechTorch Transforms a European B2B SaaS Company for Aggressive Growth
A European B2B SaaS company, backed by one of the world’s largest private equity firms, set aggressive growth targets. These goals included acquiring new logos, expanding Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) through cross-sell and up-sell, and significantly reducing churn rates.
Challenges
Despite its growth potential, the company’s operational capabilities were antiquated, highly manual, and duplicated across multiple entities due to previous acquisitions that had not been fully integrated.
Assessment
TechTorch was engaged to perform a rapid assessment of the company’s situation. Within two months, we identified approximately 75 gaps and pain points that hindered the company’s five-year business blueprint. These gaps were grouped into five key initiatives:
- Improved tracking of leads and opportunities.
- Digitized offering and pricing catalog.
- Tracked all orders and tagged appropriate order line attributes for future ARR calculations.
- Automatically integrated orders from CRM to ERP.
- Handled subscription billing, automatic revenue recognition, and simple collections and dunning tracking.
- Enabled digital communication with customers.
- Tracked all actions from the newly formed customer success management organization.
- Automated tracking of all metrics.
Implementation
TechTorch implemented all these initiatives in approximately five months, achieving a 70% time reduction compared to traditional service providers.
Results
The results speak for themselves. The company now operates with the new capability stack, allowing it to focus on growth rather than manual operations. The streamlined processes and integrated systems have led to improved efficiency, better tracking, and enhanced customer engagement.
Conclusion
Through TechTorch’s swift and efficient implementation, the European B2B SaaS company has modernized its operations and is well-positioned to meet its aggressive growth targets.
