We often get asked how we decided to develop a software solution that focuses on the Door-to-Door sales industry. Well, as they say, it’s a long story. Actually, Realtime Results is part of a collection of companies under our parent organization the Gilead Group. The Opendoor story involves a number of Gilead Group companies, some ingenuity and a whole lot of hard work.
The group of companies involved in the genesis of the Opendoor solution for door-to-door sales include:
- C4 Connections and Nfuse Direct (they are sister companies) and both Gilead Group portfolio companies. They are leaders and experts in the world of door-to-door sales.
- Realtime Results cut its teeth on customer service and call centers, and
- Agilis Systems, a Gilead Group company that develops mobile software solutions for GPS tracking and mobile workforce management.
Each of these companies brought expertise and knowledge to the Opendoor solution. Realtime leveraged the door-to-door sales expertise of C4 Connections and Nfuse Direct to gain keen insights to the needs of door-to-door sales managers and door-to-door sales reps. Our software development team worked closely with the Agilis Systems development team to flesh out the GPS tracking of sales reps and the mobile sales functionality. Then we sprinkled it all with Realtime’s expertise in back-office order processing, sales lead management and our own past with supporting door-to-door sales activities. The result is the leading door-to-door sales software solution – Opendoor.
Opendoor is now in wide use and is tracking, capturing and reporting on scores of door-to-door sales reps across the country. It’s a solution that many companies were looking for, and we are really meeting a need. We owe it all to our family of companies and our good partners.
