Hello there, trailblazers and esteemed captains of industry, and welcome to our final chapter in the odyssey of efficiency. We’ve covered a lot in blogs one and two of this series but today, let’s focus on the brightest star in our efficiency universe: Wrike.
Our recent webinar series, Unlock Efficiency With Wrike, concluded with an invigorating session led by our CMO Esther Flammer along with guest speaker and Forrester Total Economic Impact™ consultant Emma Conroy and Wrike customers Dan Wallack of Carvana and Emily Trussler of Lead Express.
The discussion illuminated some ways in which Wrike is being used as a backbone to support ongoing efficiency gains, and it’s time to share these insights with you!
The Total Economic Impact™ of Wrike
Guest speaker and Forrester Total Economic Impact™ consultant Emma Conroy took us through a Wrike-commissioned TEI™ study conducted by Forrester Consulting. The findings? The composite organization in the study saw a three-year ROI of 396% and a net present value of $9.78 million with Wrike. But it’s not just about numbers — it’s about the transformation of your work.
Real-world constellations: Carvana and Lead Express
Dan and Emily gave us a telescopic view into their Wrike workspaces at Carvana and Lead Express. Over four years, they’ve seen meteoric rises in collaboration, process refinement, and, of course, efficiency.
Their stories aren’t science fiction; they’re real results from harnessing the power of Wrike. Listen to the full series to learn more.
Quantum leaps in efficiency
From the micro (streamlined meetings) to the macro (significant time and labor savings), our customers have charted new courses to efficiency. Centralized information, workload clarity, and refined processes — these are just some of the gains that are quantifiably and qualitatively out of this world.
Forrester Consulting found that with Wrike, project managers save over 200 hours a year, which equates to about four hours a week. Newly launched projects have become more efficient, with two hours saved per project every week.
The gravity of adoption: Expert advice
Our panelists agree — a full commitment to Wrike is key. Lead by example, ensure your team is primed for adoption, and, remember, the data you put into Wrike is the treasure you’ll extract.
