upgrading support
TPC wanted to update its internal Salesforce database to better consolidate and integrate client information.
MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS SERVICING
TPC wanted a more efficient way to provide excellent customer service to clients with multiple accounts.
INTERNAL CONNECTIVITY
Internal communication between Outlook and Salesforce needed to be implemented.
accessibility
TPC wanted to make more information readily available to clients via Communities.

What made working with Emelar so great? Their people. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and make sure we stayed on time and within budget.

The Solutions
CUSTOMER COMMUNITY
Emelar provided a Knowledge Center for customers and used Community Cloud to create a Customer Community that gives customers a holistic view of their current enrollments, cases and related tasks.
STREAMLINING CLIENT SUPPORT
Emelar replaced the previous case management support portal, building a more efficient support process that allows clients to stay up to date on the progress of case tickets, communicate directly with TPC, and contact support.
SALESFORCE LIGHTNING
Emelar improved internal and external UI through TPC’s Salesforce Lightning experience.

The Results
HOLISTIC CUSTOMER TRACKING
The Customer Community now exists as a place where customers can see their current enrollments, cases and tasks through TPC.
SELF-SUFFICIENT CUSTOMERS
The Customer Community acts as a resource center linked to Knowledge articles so customers can self-serve through every stage in the process.
SIMPLIFIED CASE TRACKING
Customers with multiple accounts can now track case history for all of their accounts in one place, with one login.
CLEAR COMMUNICATION CHANNELS
There is now a record of all communication between TPC and their customers, as well as multiple channels through which TPC can communicate with their customers.
