Challenge

Challenge

Before modernizing its platform, CFL managed campaigns using disconnected tools, heavy manual data entry, and fragmented shipping processes.


  • Manual Data Entry: Heavy manual data entry for recurring, seasonal campaigns wasted team time, raised error risks, and slowed seasonal campaign launches.


  • Disconnected Operations: Disconnected campaign, shipping, and tracking systems created data silos, cutting visibility and coordination across operations.


  • High Automation Dependency: Heavy reliance on third-party automations (such as Asana and Zapier) drove up operational costs, added complexity, and limited long-term scalability.

BytePX conducted stakeholder discovery sessions to map CFL's campaign, scheduling, and shipping workflows to address existing process gaps. Based on these insights, BytePX designed and built a centralized Salesforce solution following a phased implementation strategy (Discover, Design, Build, Test, Deploy, Enablement).

The technical architecture split frontend and backend layers to balance usability with heavy data control:


  • Salesforce CRM & Custom Objects: Centralized campaign management and season scheduling logic to eliminate manual setup and data duplication.


  • Salesforce Flow: Replaced external third-party automations with native Salesforce flows to streamline processes and optimize costs.


  • Integration Layer (APEX & REST APIs): Built custom APEX classes and integrated REST APIs to seamlessly connect shipping service APIs directly into the core platform.
