Aston Martin drives success with Salesforce technology
The automotive industry is experiencing massive disruption as it transitions to accommodate customers increasingly frustrated with the purchase and ownership experience. Only 1% say they’re fully satisfied with their overall auto-buying experience. According to Salesforce research, 68% plan to reassess their spending with automotive brands, and nearly three-quarters of customers expect more personalized communications across channels.
Bringing together Automotive Cloud for sales and service, plus Marketing Cloud and CRM Analytics, Aston Martin can visualize customer insights in one place, enabling employees to offer personalized support and experiences without additional labor.
“The automotive industry is undergoing a historic digital transformation, and AI innovation is accelerating and unlocking new opportunities for car manufacturers across the globe. Aston Martin offers a terrific example of an organization driving holistic change at pace and setting a benchmark for the industry,” said Richard Aspin, Senior Vice President, Industry Sales at Salesforce UK&I.

With this comprehensive view of all available data points on each customer, employees and retailers make decisions based on accurate and near real-time data that enables Aston Martin to provide a consistent VIP experience for all customers.
