Context & Challenge

Dr. Tomi Bryan is a published author, emotional intelligence expert, and entrepreneur who built a management consulting firm for Fortune 1000 HR teams. Built around her proprietary assessments and curriculum for increasing emotional awareness in corporate teams, the business was highly profitable - but entirely manual. Curriculum and assessments were administered, scored, and managed by hand. She needed technology to scale without burning herself out.

The Challenge

While Dr. Tomi's consulting firm was performing extremely well, every technology vendor she approached quoted $1.5–2M to build her a comprehensive learning management solution and assessment platform. She needed a custom-built platform providing: community access for corporate clients, a scoring system for her tests, complex variable monetization, and a collaborative environment for shared learning - all in one system. The economics of the vendor quotes didn't make sense.

Our Solution

Instead of building from scratch, Revenue Institute architected a solution using the Salesforce ecosystem to reduce time-to-value and cut costs dramatically. Using Sales Cloud and Experience Cloud, the team built custom APIs, Apex triggers, and workflows to randomize assessment questions, score each test, administer results to the right stakeholders, and provide a corporate collaborative environment. The entire solution was delivered for under $400K. Revenue Institute also helped Dr. Tomi develop a certification program for coaches and consultants who wanted to administer her curriculum - enabling further scale.

The Results

84% Time Savings

Once fully deployed, Dr. Tomi reported that an estimated 84% of the time she previously spent running business operations was fully automated through the custom Salesforce solution.

32% Growth in 90 Days

Due to the vast improvement in customer experience and operational efficiency, Dr. Tomi could bring on clients that had been on a backlog due to limited capacity. This drove 32% revenue growth within 90 days of deployment.

80% Cost Savings

Development agencies quoted Dr. Tomi at approximately $2M. With Salesforce licensing and Revenue Institute costs combined, the entire solution was built for just under $400,000 - a savings of 80%.
