Caster Tech Sync Mailchimp Salesforce Smarter With Webkul
Caster Technology Corporation (CTC) has been innovating in the industrial caster and wheel market since 1984. They have become a trusted partner across the industry for their engineering excellence, quality, and customer-first service.
But with remarkable growth, they also face complexity in managing their customer data. The marketing data, like campaigns, customers, and engagement data, were in Mailchimp. Meanwhile, sales teams were tracking interactions, leads, and opportunities in Salesforce.
Neither platform was synced with the other, resulting in wasted time, inefficiencies, and leaving teams in the dark.
The Challenges of Caster Technology Corporation
CTC wanted to run smarter campaigns and make better business decisions with unified data. But syncing Mailchimp and Salesforce manually was challenging and time-consuming.
Here’s what they faced:
- Real-Time Sync: They wanted to sync the changes made in Mailchimp data to Salesforce instantly. This way, they have updated data to close opportunities into deals.
- Bidirectional Data Flow: Changing a record in Salesforce or Mailchimp, it had to reflect in the other system without extra effort.
- Error-Prone Manual Work: Exporting, cleaning, and re-uploading lists took time and often resulted in errors.
- Confused Teams: Outdated data confuses the sales and marketing teams, impacting their decisions and the overall customer experience.
It was clear that they needed one source of updated information across platforms.
Vision for a Smarter and Connected Data
Caster Tech sync vision was simple but powerful:
- Sync contacts, campaigns, and changes instantly across Mailchimp and Salesforce.
- Remove manual data entry and reduce errors.
- Give sales and marketing a shared, real-time view of every customer.
- Free up team time to focus on strategy and execution, not on manual work.
For this, they needed a partner who understood both systems deeply and could build a real-time integration that works.
The Right Integration Partner: Webkul
CTC turned to Webkul, a Salesforce Partner with a strong track record of solving complex integration challenges.
The Webkul team recommended ChimpConnect, Webkul’s customizable Mailchimp Salesforce connector. But this wasn’t a plug-and-play solution—it needed tailoring to meet CTC’s real-time syncing needs.
