Enxoo decided to build solutions on the Salesforce platform designed to help non-profits streamline operating activities.

SalesFix 1% of Time | 1% of Product | 1% of Profit SalesFix's philanthropic values have become an integral piece of their day-to-day business, driven by management and serving as a core piece of their annual business planning days. It is at their annual conference that they put a dollar figure beside the 1% Pledge items of profit, services and time. Then they strategize how they are best able to fulfill these targets. Every year is different. 2016-2017 included a week in Cambodia for a team of 11 (out of 13). They packed hampers for the Foodbank, ran up and down the beautiful Sunshine Coast for Cancer, and supported their colleague Maria as she cycled the mountains of New Zealand for the Smiddy Challenge Days for Girls – to name just a few. It’s not always fun-packed days, though. As a Salesforce partner, SalesFix is well positioned to provide valuable support to the administration of their Australia-based Not for Profits. This can include Salesforce implementation, Salesforce support and Health Checks, along with pro- bono sessions supporting their general NFP community. SalesFix CEO Jason Lawrence actively promotes a workplace culture of respect and equality, and is at the forefront of their philanthropic endeavors. He sleeps under the stars every year for the CEO Sleepout (supporting the homeless community), sponsors all individual charitable efforts by donation matching, and more. LEARN MORE
