"GreatAmerica Financial Services Corporation© announced today it has successfully deployed Salesforce to streamline the financing process for GreatAmerica customers across the industries it serves in IT, telephony, office equipment, automotive, light industrial construction and business solution software. This implementation of Salesforce allows customers to quote monthly payments, submit credit requests to GreatAmerica, and track credit applications.
'GreatAmerica Financial Services has been a great financing partner of Epicor,' said Kevin Hingley, Director of Sales at Epicor, a long-time GreatAmerica customer. 'With the new integration of Salesforce, it will be easier and more efficient to process finance applications and gain approvals.'
GreatAmerica customers using Salesforce will be able to quote monthly lease payments within the application and submit credit applications. “Our integration with Salesforce streamlines the financing process for our customers,” said David Pohlman, Executive Vice President and COO of GreatAmerica. “This automation helps them reduce errors and free up time for their business-growing activities.”
Additionally, customers can track the status of credit applications and transactions within Salesforce. That status is available from the time the application is submitted to the time the transaction is funded. GreatAmerica customers using Salesforce can sign up for the integration at no additional charge by contacting GreatAmerica at integration@greatamerica.com.
