For over 60 years, Waters has been committed to designing, innovating and manufacturing specialty measurement technologies that enable customer success in life, materials and food science. Because of the advanced nature of their instruments and software, more than half of Waters’ employees are in sales and service, working closely with customers to set up, calibrate and deploy technologies in labs worldwide. To build deeper customer relationships, provide superior service and scale internationally, the company selected Salesforce as its global CRM platform.
In order to get its lab instruments and measurement software in the hands of the buyer, Waters needed a cloud-based CRM that could foster collaboration globally and scale across offices in 35 countries and 15 manufacturing facilities. Using Salesforce, Waters’ employees can see insights and recommendations based on previously closed deals and buying patterns to better tailor offerings to customers and shorten sales cycles. With Salesforce, Waters’ sales and service teams will get a 360-degree view of each customer. Salesforce will also empower Waters’ highly-specialized sales representatives to spend less time in their CRM and more time interacting with their customers.
“From the earliest days, Waters has always put a premium on our relationships with customers. It is part of our culture instilled by Jim Waters himself, who could often be seen working shoulder-to-shoulder with customers,” said Mike Harrington, Senior Vice President of Global Markets at Waters Corporation. “Adoption of Salesforce’s CRM solution is a modern expansion of our customer-centric culture. While collaboration at the customers’ benches will continue, we expect our new CRM capabilities will deepen our understanding of and effectiveness in meeting the individual needs of our customers worldwide.”
