Salesforce for Private Equity and Investment Banking

WORKING WITH US

Sikich has developed its own Salesforce templates for Private Equity and Investment Banking firms. How does it work? Both templates run on Salesforce’s Sales Cloud licenses and can be installed as part of our project with your firm. Having implemented over 50 firms in this space, Sikich has taken much of the feedback from our clients and developed offerings that provide functionality specific to each use case.

Serving the Private Equity and Investment Banking Industry

“We were glad to have Sikich engaged on our project as we customized Salesforce.com. Additionally, loading our existing data into the new environment turned out to be more complicated than we originally anticipated, so it was wonderful to have your help with this.”

HOW SIKICH HEADSTART WITH Salesforce can help PRIVATY EQUITY FIRMS

Private Equity Firms

Your business has multiple facets. Private Equity firms often want to track both the fund raising as well as the deals associated to each fund and potential portfolio company. It is important to segment the type of company from Limited Partners (LP) to General Partners (GP) to prospective/current/former portfolio companies, each requiring their own unique functionality. Being able to manage both your fund raising and deal pipeline through various views and reports has been built for your users.

Investment Banking Firms

If you are in investment banking, there is much tracking and insight required to keep your organization successful. You will want to track sales and pitches. When you bring a client onboard you will setup a project and manage all the potential companies associated to that project. You have relationships with all different types of companies, and they are all important to your business. Whether a service organization, sponsor or prospective client, you need specific functionality to align with each one. Once a project is sold, you need to be able to track all the companies being targeted for that project and easily update the status. With Salesforce, reports and dashboards are available and refreshed daily to provide users with timely information.

Business Travelers

Whether in private equity or investment banking, travel is something that is a standard part of life. Sikich often sets up Salesforce Maps so that all the companies in the Salesforce system can be color coded when viewing the map. What advantage does this provide? While you are traveling to any city you will see on the map, by color, what types of companies are in the area so you can schedule additional meetings while out of town.

“We hired Sikich after another Salesforce partner wasn’t meeting our needs. They stepped in and were able to complete the project and deliver exactly what we needed.”
