How We Replaced Manual Sales Tracking with a Real-Time Salesforce Dashboard

Client Overview

A growing organization needed a more efficient and accurate way to track and analyze their sales performance. Their existing manual, Excel-based system was slowing down decision-making, creating inconsistencies, and limiting visibility across the organization.


Business Challenge

Before engaging Astreca Consulting, the client faced several operational bottlenecks:

  • Manual & Error-Prone Tracking – Sales data was recorded and updated manually in Excel, often leading to inaccuracies and version-control issues.

  • Lack of Real-Time Insights – Leadership teams had no live visibility into sales performance, making it difficult to respond quickly to market changes.

  • Fragmented Data – Information was scattered across different files and departments, preventing teams from accessing a single source of truth.

  • Time-Consuming Reporting – Preparing sales reports required hours of manual work, reducing overall productivity.


Solution Delivered by Astreca Consulting

Astreca designed and implemented a centralized Salesforce dashboard to replace the outdated Excel process. The solution was tailored to the client’s sales processes and focused on providing real-time insights and automation.
