Streamlining Lead Management with ERPNext – A CRM Transformation: Case Study

A fast-growing B2B service provider approached us to overhaul their lead management system and sales workflow. Their existing CRM system was unable to support the expanding lead sources and sales structure due to its lack of flexibility, integration capabilities and user-friendliness.

At Infomaze, we implemented a centralized and scalable Lead Management CRM solution within ERPNext. It is designed to efficiently manage inbound leads from various channels such as cold calling, website inquiries and digital marketing campaigns, while also creating a streamlined process to guide prospects from initial contact to deal closure.

Challenges in B2B Lead Management Before ERPNext CRM Implementation

Despite having a CRM system in place, the client faced multiple pain points that were affecting their productivity and lead conversion:

Fragmented Data Sources

Our client’s lead data was spread across different platforms which made it difficult to get a unified view.

Delayed Lead Follow-ups

Their manual lead assignment resulted in slow response times and missed opportunities.

Limited Sales Funnel Visibility

Sales managers had little insight into deal stages and rep activity in real-time.

Underutilized CRM Tools

They were facing low user adoption among the sales team due to the system’s complexity and poor user experience.

Manual Reporting

Even their reporting was time-consuming and inconsistent and they had to rely heavily on spreadsheets and manual exports.

Our Solution: Strategic ERPNext Customization and Lead Management System Setup

We took a structured approach to address these challenges, focusing on process alignment, data migration and ERPNext customization for optimization.

Process Discovery and Mapping

We began with a comprehensive audit of the client’s sales process across teams. This included mapping lead flows from cold calling campaigns, web forms and digital advertising into a structured and repeatable sales funnel.

ERPNext CRM Setup and Customization

We deployed ERPNext CRM and tailored its modules by:

  • Customizing lead and opportunity forms with relevant industry-specific fields
  • Defining a multi-stage sales pipeline: New → Contacted → Qualified → Proposal Sent → Negotiation → Won/Lost
  • ERPNext implementation with permission-based dashboards for sales reps, managers, and executives
Seamless Data Migration

We performed a full migration from their existing CRM, ensuring:

  • Cleaned and deduplicated lead and contact records
  • Accurate mapping of fields and historical data

Integrated Lead Sources

We connected all external platforms directly into Frappe CRM to:

  • Seamlessly integrate external cold-calling platforms and online campaigns to automatically capture leads within ERPNext through Frappe CRM.
  • Capture UTM-tagged web leads for precise source attribution.
  • Consolidate all lead intake points into a centralized CRM funnel.
Automation and User Productivity Enhancements

To boost adoption, we use ERPNext automation to:
