As one of the largest technology solution providers in the central U.S., this organization has built its reputation on delivering cutting-edge managed and consulting services. With a deeply client-focused approach and a commitment to innovation, the company continues to push forward in artificial intelligence (AI) enablement, helping businesses adopt smarter, more efficient technology strategies.
A key part of that innovation journey is Salesforce Einstein, Salesforce’s suite of AI and automation tools designed to streamline workflows, surface insights, and enhance productivity across sales and service operations. From predictive analytics to automated communication and guided coaching, Einstein empowers teams to work faster, stay informed, and focus on the activities that drive the greatest impact.
Challenges
Despite a strong foundation in Salesforce, the company faced several barriers that prevented teams from fully benefiting from Salesforce’s new AI tools. Many users lacked familiarity with Einstein for Sales and needed guidance not only on adoption but on how to operationalize these features in their daily workflows. Sales and Client Success reps were also spending significant time on manual tasks (emails, notes, follow-ups) leaving less time for actual selling and client engagement. Leadership struggled with limited visibility into coaching opportunities, conversation quality, and early risk indicators due to inconsistent or incomplete activity data. Reps needed a faster, more streamlined way to understand opportunity context, especially when juggling multiple accounts or collaborating across teams. At the same time, there was no unified structure for creating consistent content, leading to communication variability and inefficiencies across the organization.
Solution
To address these challenges, the company partnered with Ascend Technologies to make Einstein actionable across the entire revenue organization. Ascend implemented Einstein Coach to surface guided coaching moments, providing reps with recommended actions based on real opportunities and communication patterns. Einstein Conversation Insights was enabled to give Sales and Client Success teams visibility into call topics, sentiment, competitor mentions, and talk-track adherence. To reduce manual effort and improve personalization, Ascend deployed Einstein GPT for Sales Emails, Einstein Prompt Templates, and Einstein Sales Summaries, accelerating communication and automating follow-up tasks. The engagement also included activating Sales Cloud Einstein and Einstein Search to deliver AI-driven insights, predictions, and faster CRM navigation. Finally, the team transitioned users to Standard Einstein Activity Capture, ensuring accurate, automated syncing of email and calendar events, unlocking richer insights for coaching, forecasting, and productivity analytics.
Outcome
With Einstein fully activated and embedded into their workflow, the organization unlocked measurable improvements across sales efficiency, coaching, and visibility. Manual email drafting, follow-ups, and call documentation were significantly reduced through Einstein GPT and automated summaries, giving reps more time to focus on revenue-generating activity. Leadership gained clearer insight into rep activity, conversation quality, and opportunity-level indicators, dramatically improving coaching effectiveness. Pipeline visibility strengthened thanks to a more complete activity history paired with AI-driven predictions, enabling faster, data-informed decision-making. And with standardized prompt templates and AI-generated guidance, the company elevated communication consistency and overall message quality across Sales and Client Success.
