The Challenge
nFuse Direct, a rapidly expanding direct sales organization, needed better visibility into the activities of their field sales teams across the country. The company's growth had led to a lack of insight into the daily location and usage of their sales vans, which were crucial for transporting sales teams to their designated selling locations. This lack of visibility was hindering the company's ability to provide their clients with detailed insights into sales activity by comparing sales results with geographic sales activity. The company needed a cost-effective solution to capture the daily location and usage of these vans.
About The Customer
nFuse Direct is a fast-growing, direct sales organization with a focus on face-to-face sales. The company provides direct sales expertise across a diverse set of companies and industries including energy, cable, and telecom. Over the last couple of years, the company has quickly grown to become one of the largest and best-respected direct sales organizations in the business. nFuse Direct is a subsidiary of C4 Connections, LLC and is based out of St. Louis, MO.
The Solution
nFuse Direct approached Agilis Systems for a solution. Agilis Systems, a St. Louis based Software as a Service (SaaS) company, provides a collection of powerful workforce management tools and software solutions to monitor and make field teams more efficient. Agilis recommended and nFuse Direct implemented Agilis’ Linxup GPS vehicle tracking solution. The Linxup GPS tracking device simply plugs into the OBD II port on the nFuse vans and begins reporting GPS location, stop locations, driving speed, idling activity, and unauthorized use back to the Linxup Web portal using its built-in cellular modem. nFuse sales management accesses this portal and can view the location of all nFuse vans in real time, and they can view historical location activity as well.
