"Silvercrest AI understood something crucial: we didn't need more tools, we needed better processes. Thanasis and his team mapped our entire lead conversion journey and implemented targeted automation that saved us both time and money."

The assessment

Four weeks to see where prospects stalled before signing.

Four weeks to see where prospects stalled before signing.

The project began with an AI opportunity assessment. We interviewed the team, mapped the lead conversion journey as it actually ran and set it against the goal Tourix had set itself: a tailored proposal within a few days of the first meeting. The map showed where momentum disappeared. Meetings took place, but follow-ups and proposals waited for time nobody had, and each proposal started from an older one found in one of several template locations. We ranked the opportunities by impact and effort, from booking and reminders to prospect research and proposal drafting, and agreed a phased roadmap. One prerequisite became clear early: before proposals could move faster, the services themselves had to be packaged, with defined inputs, deliverables and pricing logic.

The challenge

Leads were never the problem. Turning them into signed clients took up to a month.

Leads were never the problem. Turning them into signed clients took up to a month.

Tourix is a digital marketing agency serving the tourism industry. Generating demand was not the main obstacle; moving interested prospects through meetings, proposals and contracts was. Information was spread across call notes and manual handovers, and preparing a proposal could take several weeks. We started with an AI opportunity assessment of the full lead-to-client journey, identifying the work that delayed the next conversation or decision.

The approach

Connect the sales journey, not just the proposal document.

Connect the sales journey, not just the proposal document.

The assessment connected several related needs: prospect research before a meeting, a useful record of the conversation, a clear match between the client’s needs and Tourix’s services, and timely proposal preparation. We helped structure the offer and the information needed at each step, then connected the repeatable preparation and follow-up work. The aim was to give the team a usable next step without losing the context of the prospect’s situation.

Keep the context from enquiry to proposal

Tourix needed a connected sales process, not a faster document in isolation. The assessment linked the information gathered before a call to the work that followed it.

Prepare prospect research and the meeting context. Booking and reminder steps reduce routine chasing.

Turn the call into a structured brief: needs, relevant services, actions and the agreed next step.

Prepare the proposal

Use that brief and the structured offer to prepare the proposal and contract, with follow-up connected to the opportunity.

Our role went beyond connecting software

We mapped where the journey stalled, clarified the information each stage needed and connected the repeatable work. That gave the sales team more continuity between conversations, decisions and delivery.

The details

What we built, and how the project ran

What we built, and how the project ran

What we built

  • One entry point from enquiry forms into the CRM, with instant confirmation, a booking link and a team notification

  • Automatic reminders for leads who have not booked yet, and rescheduling for missed calls

  • A prospect research brief prepared before every first conversation

  • Call summaries turned into a structured brief with needs, relevant services and next steps

  • A service catalogue with standard packages, add-ons and pricing logic

  • Proposal and contract drafts built from the brief and the catalogue, reviewed and approved by the team before sending

  • Signing reminders and a notification when a new client is won

How the project ran

  • Weeks 1 to 4: AI opportunity assessment, process map, prioritisation and roadmap

  • Weeks 5 to 6: forms, CRM, booking, notifications and follow-up

  • Weeks 7 to 10: research briefs, call summaries, service catalogue and proposal drafting

  • Weeks 11 to 12: testing with live leads, refinements and handover to the team

The Results

What changed for the team

Proposal turnaround moved from up to a month to a matter of days. The wider benefit was continuity: the research, conversation and agreed next step no longer had to be assembled again for each handover. The sales team could spend more of its time on qualified conversations while the supporting process carried the routine preparation.
