Challenge

After seeing the outcomes of a client project of ours, Allsop approached us, keen to hear about how we could achieve similar results for their commercial investment team.

Allsop fee earners were spending too much time distributing information to clients, and the client experience wasn’t as streamlined and easy to use as it could be.

As well as improving the end-user experience, we saw this as an opportunity to help improve the way in which Allsop engaged with clients, save them time, and free them up to go above and beyond for clients.

After all, Allsop knew how they could better service their clients, but their technology was holding them back.

Our Approach

After an initial research and design phase, we came up with a concept online system that would support Allsop fee earners by automating previously manual processes and providing a slick client experience.

A simple drag-and-drop interface laid the foundation for the system, allowing Allsop to invite clients to view information in one centralised portal, always up to date, always accessible.

Distributing information to clients was easily done by spreadsheet import, and once inside the system, clients were presented with the information in a private, Allsop-branded webpage with interactive galleries and brochures.

Moreover, the system used a unique algorithm to analyse client behaviour over time and predict which clients were the most interested in specific opportunities, saving Allsop time by only engaging with interested parties and eliminating wasted client outreach.

Results

As a result of the new system, Allsop saw unanimously positive feedback from stakeholders and clients, who saw value in the improved online experience and refined processes.

The system’s automated processes and ease of use resulted in an estimated 139 days time saved across the team annually. With much of the process now automated, this freed them up to focus on the human side of ongoing client care.
