Context

The client

Volvo Trucks needed to serve a new sales channel bringing together three very different audiences: truck drivers, dealers and its own internal sales teams — while keeping the brand's high quality standard.

Challenge

The challenge

Integrating truck drivers, dealers and internal teams into a single sales channel without losing service quality, and with an ambitious target: multiplying the projected result by 40x, opening the way to replicate the same model in other countries.

Approach

How we ran the project

  1. Diagnosis

    Identifying the new sales channel's three audiences (truck drivers, dealers, internal team) and what each one required from the operation.

  2. Strategy

    Defining Zendesk as the centralizing tool for the entire project, unifying the three audiences into a single operation.

  3. Architecture

    Structuring the new sales channel on Zendesk, with Volvo Trucks' quality standard as a non-negotiable criterion.

  4. Implementation

    Rolling out the centralized channel, already serving truck drivers, dealers and the internal team.

  5. Optimization

    Continuous adjustments toward the 40x result target and preparing the model for expansion into new countries.

Solution

The solution

Zendesk was adopted as the centralizing tool for the whole project, giving Volvo Trucks a single operation able to serve truck drivers, dealers and internal sales teams without giving up the brand's quality standard.
