The Situation
Sunway City Berhad’s website (www.sunwaycity.com) serves as the platform for the
following:
- To provide information to their Investors and Media through the corporate website.
- For Property Development Division (PDD) to sale and market their latest property.
- For Property Investment Division (PID) to introduce various property for leasing.
- Customer Service to provide self-service to Sunway City’s property owner via Customer
Care Portal for their billing, after-sales support, property feedback and property
development’s progress report.
Sunway City recognizes the high potential and business value conducted via Internet,
and encourages all its staff and departments to fully embrace business automation
through the website.
The Problem
Website Design: Sunway City’s website design is unable to project their
branding as the leading property developer in Malaysia, and the information is not
organized in a structure fashion.
Content Update: Except for Customer Care Portal, all updates to Sunway City’s
website are manually updated by IT Department. News and product updates do not get
updated immediately, and IT Department is unable to cope with increasing requests
from internal client. A website content update system with controlled publishing
rights needs to be implemented urgently to enable information is updated faster
on the website.
PDD Sales & Marketing: The products’ page lacks selling-points’ information,
and there is no search function in the website for user to find their product. There
is no online form for user to submit their sales appointment request, product enquiry
or registration for the product they are interested in. User is directed to call
or walk-in to sales galleries for product information, thus PDD is unable to gauge
the actual customer referred through the website, and the Sales teams’ efficiency
in serving the customer.
Customer Care Portal: The Customer Care Portal is managed via CMS built in-house
by IT Department, and it is in need of a design face-lift to better serve their
customers online. Sunway City is also keen to track the customer’s behavior from
pre-sales to post-sales so that they can formulate better marketing and customer
service strategy to increase their sales revenue.
How Xtopia solves Sunway City Berhad’s problems
XiMnet implemented Xtopia with the following modules to help Sunway City to solve
their problems:
- CMS: A multisite CMS is deployed for Corporate Communication to streamline
information on corporate, PDD and PI’s websites.
- Product Management System: Fully automated product management for PDD to
manage all products’ information, including product’s specification, price, availability
and locations. Search function is implemented on PDD’s website to enable customer
to find product with ease through location, price, type and project name.
- Sales Tracking System: A complete sales enquiry fulfillment cycle is implemented
to track sales enquiry from the website and response / turn-around time from the
product’s sales manager and sales executive. Automated reminder is sent every 4
hours during business hours to respective sales manager, sales executive, marketing
manager and marketing executive if the sales enquiry is not attended to after 24
hours.
- User-friendly Design for Customer Care Portal: Templates are designed for
IT Department’s CMS for better accessibility.
The result
- Corporate Communication can update corporate information, news and press releases
immediately online.
- PDD’s Sales and Marketing team can update and maintain product’s information once
it’s available. Customers are able to search for their dream property, view its
information online and easily send in their appointment request, enquiry and registration
through online form. Sales enquiries are channeled directly to the respective product
managers and sales executives for faster response. The Management team is able to
track online sales enquiries and the Sales Teams’ performances via Xtopia Dashboard
and can immediately make the necessary decision to enhance sales and customer service.
