About The Customer
Hookit is a leading sponsorship analytics and valuation platform for sports, headquartered in San Diego, California. The company helps brands maximize their sponsorship investments while empowering athletes, teams, leagues, and federations to prove and increase their value to sponsors. Hookit actively tracks nearly 500,000 sports entities across the largest social and digital media platforms. Its clientele includes digitally-focused, forward-thinking companies like the Stanley Cup Champion Washington Capitals, Oakland Raiders, Canadian Olympic Team, Michelin, New Balance, McLaren Honda F1, Kantar Media, Liverpool FC, PGA European Tour, and World Surf League.
The Challenge
Hookit, a leading sponsorship analytics and valuation platform for sports, experienced rapid growth in its order volumes over the past few years. This growth outpaced the capabilities of their existing accounting and CRM systems, leading to operational inefficiencies. The team, led by Steve Sam, was manually entering orders, which was not only time-consuming but also led to difficulties in managing deferred revenue schedules and properly recognizing revenue. The company was also struggling with data and manual billing issues due to the misalignment between their accounting system and Salesforce. The need for a custom billing schedule in Salesforce that could be transferred to NetSuite for billing was a critical requirement for the company.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Hookit implemented Celigo’s Salesforce – NetSuite integration, as recommended by NetSuite during the implementation process. The implementation process was smooth, and the team was particularly impressed with Celigo’s tech support, who demonstrated exceptional knowledge about integration. The team was able to identify and resolve issues quickly and efficiently. With Celigo’s integration in place, Hookit was able to capture information in NetSuite that would have been impractical to do manually. This enabled them to have better data insights and improved data accuracy. The integration also eliminated manual work and facilitated robust communication between Salesforce and NetSuite.
Operational Impact
  • The integration of Celigo’s Salesforce – NetSuite solution has brought about significant operational improvements for Hookit. The company now enjoys enhanced data insights, thanks to the automated data capture facilitated by the integration. The solution has also eliminated the need for manual work, freeing up the team to focus on more strategic tasks. The robust communication between Salesforce and NetSuite has improved data accuracy and streamlined the billing process. Furthermore, the company can now pay commissions and recognize revenue more quickly, improving cash flow and financial management.
