the challenge

01

Struggled to engage and increase productivity across sales teams.

02

Manual and error-prone reporting system for sales performance.

03

Disparate reports led to trust issues and inefficiency in performance tracking.

04

Time-consuming communication with agents across different branches.

05

Business and Agency teams were receiving sales data on excel reports on a weekly or monthly schedule; the daily manual alignment process required IT and Business teams to sit down and validate the reports each day.

06

The Agency team had difficulty identifying and tracking active agents, which prevented targeted communications and insights; executives needed a single view of performance parameters and a single source of truth for the Corporate & Agency teams.

07

The Malaysian Central Bank mandated that all life insurance agents have their own balanced scorecard, forcing the company to create a performance scorecard solution as well.

what entomo did

Automated reporting with real-time performance tracking for agents and managers.

Single source of truth for performance metrics across the organization.

Gamified sales performance to motivate and re-engage agents.

Through consulting workshops, identified designation-wise key performance metrics for Balanced Scorecard and Contests; as of July 2019, all seven mandated metrics were rolled out as part of the balanced scorecard initiative.

Automated the process of daily reports and eliminated multiple levels of validation that was previously required.

Through entomo’s proprietary database-agnostic data mart tool, data was seamlessly integrated from all existing operational systems and linked into each agent’s performance scorecard.

Every agent has a personal dashboard for personal performance metrics and commission earned; every manager has a group dashboard for team performance metrics and manpower data; key management gets high-level data on team performance across branches; agents receive frequent communication through push notifications; automated contest reports for group leaders and managers.
