Red Door Interactive accesses scenario forecasting with Sage Intacct

The global marketing and advertising agency improves its decision making with Sage software, and sees a significant increases in its bottom line.

Simplifying budget and planning

Red Door Interactive struggled to compile complex budgets for salaries, new hires, office supplies, and other expenses in five different Microsoft Excel files, each containing several tabs. During the forecasting process, they spent days just calculating and re-calculating budgets for various scenarios.

I was the only one who could make changes directly in the workbook, so there’d be multiple cycles, and we were often still finalizing budgets weeks into the quarter.
