Xanodyne Pharmaceuticals Automates Field Sales Force Using Target SFA
Allentown, PA, January 25, 2005 - Target Software (www.targetsoftware.com) today announced that Xanodyne Pharmaceuticals has launched the Target Mobile sales effectiveness suite. Xanodyne will use the Target SFA suite as its principal sales information management solution, both in the field and at its headquarters office. The company has engaged the Target Software Support Center to provide hosting, help desk, software validation, training, data management and other SFA operational services on an ongoing basis.
"We are very pleased to have selected Target SFA as our complete sales force effectiveness and CRM application," says Dan Docherty, Xanodyne's Vice President of Sales. "We conducted an extensive evaluation process and considered several vendors for this important project. In the end, we concluded that the Target SFA suite-and Target Mobile on a Pocket PC in particular-is simply the best, most comprehensive field sales solution available because it is specifically tailored for pharmaceutical companies."
Xanodyne sales specialists will utilize Target Mobile's professional and account management features, call planning, route planning, and market data review. Xanodyne specialists will also take advantage of Target Mobile's versatile sampling module, which will automate Xanodyne's sample-carry and sample-send programs, providing electronic signature capture for both.
Home office administrators will utilize the management, tracking and sample reconciliation features of Target BackOffice, as well as the broad range of employee, territory and universe management tools and reports Target SFA provides. Xanodyne division sales managers will benefit from Target SFA's web-based transaction monitoring and reporting tools.
"Target SFA continues to gain momentum as the tool of choice for pharmaceutical companies looking to make a serious impact on their bottom line," states Ted Rosenberger, Target Software's Chairman and CEO. "We offer a complete, end-to-end solution with enough versatility and configurability to handle the whole range of information management needs for a growing company like Xanodyne."
"Target Software's proven track record of trouble-free SFA implementations was one of the reasons we chose them," says Joe Powell, Xanodyne's IT Manager. "We were also very impressed with the flexibility of their support service offerings and the depth of their technical expertise," Powell continues. "As manager of an IT department with limited internal resources, I am comforted by Target Software's willingness to go the extra mile and provide Xanodyne with several non-standard support services we need to make this work."
