The Challenge
What problems was Primal facing?
Primal's sales team was losing valuable time answering repetitive questions from potential customers. Without automation in place, these manual processes created inefficiencies and took attention away from high-value activities such as qualifying leads, running discovery calls, and closing deals.
The Requirements
What did Primal need?
Primal needed to automate their sales workflows to reduce time spent on low-value interactions and ensure that only qualified leads reached the team. This meant capturing leads automatically, scheduling meetings without friction, and preparing the sales team with relevant insights in advance.
The Solution
How did Wingspan Technology help?
Wingspan Technology worked with Primal to design and deploy a tailored automation system built around N8N, HubSpot, and WhatsApp. The solution included:
- A chatbot powered by RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) to answer common questions about Primal's services
- Lead qualification through sentiment analysis to identify prospects ready for sales engagement
- Seamless CRM integration: once identified, lead details were uploaded into HubSpot and a booking link was shared instantly within WhatsApp
- AI-driven website analysis: prospect sites were scraped and reviewed, with insights automatically added into HubSpot notes to prepare the sales team for upcoming calls
The Results
What impact did the solution deliver?
The impact was transformational:
- Significant reduction in time wasted on repetitive interactions
- Sales team focus unlocked: shifted from answering questions to qualifying leads, running discovery, and closing deals
- Streamlined lead process: faster handover from chatbot to CRM, ensuring no lost opportunities
- Smarter sales preparation: AI-driven website analysis armed sales reps with actionable insights before client conversations
By partnering with Wingspan Technology, Primal streamlined their sales operations and created the foundations for scalable, efficient growth.
