PROBLEM
Evolus, a global performance beauty company and manufacturer of clinical neurotoxins, operates in a highly regulated environment governed by FDA, CDC, GDPR, and other pharmaceutical compliance requirements. As the business expanded rapidly across markets, Evolus needed a CRM platform capable of managing complex customer, inventory, and compliance data without disrupting existing regulatory‑approved processes.
Key challenges included:
- Integration with regulated systems and processes
Any CRM implementation needed to integrate seamlessly with existing platforms while adhering to strict regulatory and data‑privacy standards. - Disconnected customer data sources
Customer sign‑up data captured via external platforms was not fully synchronised with Evolus’ internal customer database, limiting Salesforce’s effectiveness as a central system. - Inefficient lead and account management
Evolus required improved lead qualification, routing, and prioritisation to ensure account managers focused on high‑value opportunities. - Limited visibility into customer engagement
Customer communications were not consistently tracked, reducing visibility across teams and limiting insight into adoption status and account history. - Inventory tracking challenges
Account managers struggled to track inventory issued to healthcare practitioners, practices, and distributors while remaining compliant with GDPR restrictions. - Compliance documentation and auditability
A secure, auditable solution was needed to track signatures, complaints, and medical information requests across multiple markets.
Evolus required a scalable, compliant CRM solution that could act as a single source of truth while supporting continued international growth.
SOLUTION
Cooper Parry Digital designed and delivered a Salesforce Sales Cloud and Service Cloud solution supported by secure API integrations, custom data structures, and compliance‑focused workflows.
The solution included:
- Custom inventory management within Salesforce
Custom objects were created under Accounts to track inventory issued to customers, enabling account managers to view stock holdings while maintaining GDPR compliance. - Enhanced account and engagement visibility
Salesforce‑Outlook integration and customised activity processes ensured all emails and communications were logged against customer records, delivering a true 360° customer view. - Improved lead and territory management
A custom lead assignment process routes leads efficiently based on defined criteria, while API‑driven postcode logic assigns accounts to the correct representatives. - API integrations for data integrity
Secure API connections sync Salesforce with Evolus’ external customer platforms using HCP numbers, keeping records accurate, up‑to‑date, and aligned across systems. - Compliance and legal process automation
Adobe Acrobat Sign eSignatures for Salesforce was implemented to manage digital signatures, supporting medical information requests with a clear, auditable trail. - Scalable security and data governance
Salesforce sharing rules, profiles, and roles were configured to support multi‑country teams while restricting access based on regulatory and territorial requirements. - Complaints and compliance management with Service Cloud
Salesforce Service Cloud enables Evolus to log, categorise, track, and resolve complaints and compliance cases with automation, SLAs, and reporting built in. - Multi‑country enablement
Salesforce Translation Workbench supports rapid onboarding of new markets, allowing workflows and data to be translated into multiple languages with minimal effort.
