Complexica Pty Ltd, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence software for optimising sales and marketing activities, announced today that it has signed a contract with DuluxGroup for the deployment of a next-generation Customer Opportunity Profiler (COP) system, powered by Larry, the Digital Analyst®. DuluxGroup will deploy the software within its trade paints, texture coatings, and protective coatings businesses to reduce the non-selling time of sales staff, personalise customer interactions and conversations, and automate the manual research undertaken by sales staff.

“After an evaluation process and successful proof-of-concept in 2016, we have chosen to partner with Complexica to upgrade the technological capability of our in-field sales force,” said Stephen Mooney, Group Sales Capability Manager for DuluxGroup. “The next-generation Customer Opportunity Profiler provided by Complexica will serve as a key tool for sales staff to optimise their daily activities, personalise conversations and interactions with customers, and analyse data to generate actionable insights.”

Complexica's CEO, Matthew Michalewicz, joins Marty Switzer on Sky News to dispel some common myths about the rise of Artificial Intelligence, and explain why jobs are not in danger, yet.

Businesses that sell a large range of products to a large range of customers are burdened by an analytical challenge that drags down their yield on sales resources. The challenge, simply put, is to help each sales rep answer the following two questions:

• “Who should I call on this week?” (i.e. where are the opportunities or potential problems?)
• “What personalised messages/insights should I deliver in each call?”

At present, most sales reps answer these questions by accessing various systems and databases, where they shift through endless customer data, survey information, and transactional data, looking for opportunities or alarming trends (such as down trends). They manually identify the customers that should be visited, add those customers to their call plan, optimise the plan for the best logistical sequence, and then Google the customer before finally making the visit. What’s interesting about this process is that it has nothing to do with sales. This is an analytical task. It prepares the sales rep for the sales visit, and although it's important to be prepared, the task itself is not a sales task.

“After evaluating a number of software companies in the marketplace that possess advanced prediction and optimisation capabilities, we have ultimately selected Complexica as our vendor of choice.” said Andrew Endicott, Brand Manager for Pfizer Australia. “We have found that answering complex “what-if” questions is a challenging and time-consuming endeavour, and we believe that Complexica’s What-if Simulator & Optimiser can provide Pfizer Australia with a platform for scenario analysis that will improve our decision-making in the future. We look forward to working with Complexica to address some of the analytical and “what-if” challenges facing our business and operating environment.”

Pfizer Australia is rolling out artificial intelligence-based digital analyst tools from Complexica in a bid to improve the pharmaceutical company’s data-driven sales and marketing decision making.

Based on its digital analyst engine, dubbed Larry, Complexica’s What-if Simulator allows Pfizer to test and optimise a range of scenarios based on internal and external data sets. In a statement, the company said it plans to use the software to simulate the impact of sales and marketing strategies, investigate assumptions and hypothesis difficult to test in the real world, and compare the outcome of various what-if scenarios in order to understand what’s contributing to business results.

Pfizer said the software will also help to understand deterministic and non-deterministic factors presented in its business operations, as well as see how variables within different questions impact one another. Pfizer brand manager, Andrew Endicott, said the group evaluated a number of predictive and optimisation offering before opting for Complexica.

Complexica Pty Ltd, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence software for optimising sales and marketing activities, announced today that it has signed a contract with Haircare Australia for the deployment of a number of its software applications for optimising sales force activities and managing customer relationships and interactions. Complexica will provide Haircare Australia staff with advanced capabilities for quoting, order processing, CRM, and guided-selling, through the deployment of its “Touchless” CRM system, Customer Opportunity Profiler (COP) and Order Management System (OMS), which are collectively powered by Complexica’s proprietary Artificial Intelligence engine, Larry, the Digital Analyst®

“After evaluating a number of software systems available in the marketplace, we have ultimately selected Complexica as our vendor of choice for sales force automation and CRM,” said Nick Carr, CEO of Haircare Australia. “Given the large SKU range we carry and very long tail of customers we serve, Complexica’s applications are best suited to deal with this inherent complexity without burdening our staff with endless data entry. We look forward to deploying Complexica’s software applications to help our staff focus on what they do best – providing maximum value and service to our customers.”

While many in sales fumble around with automated blasting and spamming, some of the best minds in the world are quietly revolutionizing sales forever. Make no mistake, all professions are facing the great disruption of the machine age as the bots steadily take over the trickiest of surgeries and medical procedures, legal research and precedent analysis, driving in the most hazardous of roads and mines, navigating and piloting the airways, automating banking and accounting, making the most complex decisions for marketing and advertising within markets. Relationships alone cannot save your sales career. You'll need technology if you are to achieve the level of efficiency and effective needed to thrive.
