Part 1 – the Arxonas perspective: subscription management, payment processing, accounting: everything automated!

Click here for an overview of the series of articles on Mein Arxonas.  

My goal in this blog post is to give you an idea of 

• how data sharing, financial processes, user management are available to Arxonas in one system and 
• how marketing, customer & content management and accounting are smoothly and automatically intertwined, so that there is no need for manual double entry anywhere. 

We take a look at this in this article using Mr Leitner’s example and some additional background information.

Payment processing with Stripe: simple, flexible, routine!

An Example
With just a few clicks, Arxonas created a voucher code limited to 500 applications: ‘DIE_ERSTEN_500’. Martin Leitner, a tax consultant from Munich, saw an ad from Arxonas sending him a discount code in exchange for signing up to the newsletter.

Stripe is one of the world’s leading payment processing companies. By connecting the app to Stripe, payments by credit card or SEPA direct debit mandate run securely and smoothly. Furthermore, with just a few clicks, Arxonas has the possibility to 

• create personal voucher codes, 
• issue a limited number of discounts, 
• cancel subscriptions, 
• or even refund individual payments.

All this helps Arxonas to attract new customers with marketing campaigns or to increase the customer satisfaction of current customers. In addition, of course, we will not reach any limits with this partner, even with many hundreds of thousands of customers.

Lead generation with Salesforce

Continuing with Mr. Leitner
Thanks to the Salesforce connection of the system, his contact is immediately created as a lead in the CRM. Sales now has all the data at its disposal. In our example, however, things are going particularly well for Arxonas. Enthusiastically, Mr Leitner immediately registers for the system using his credit card.

So Arxonas can both create new leads manually in Salesforce. But the forms on the website also do this automatically. Through Salesforce, Arxonas can contact their customers as usual and manage existing leads.

Content and user management with intelligent data management

More information can also be found in Part 2.

Continuing with Mr. Leitner
On his browser, he opens the app and finds videos and tools that Arxonas has uploaded there for him. Arxonas employees can therefore upload files for all users, while Mr Leitner can only upload files for himself and his employees. Arxonas can still manage his subscription with Stripe without any problems.

User roles – who can do what in the system – play an essential role in the scalability and usability of the system. Through it, it is possible to create different roles that have different access rights to parts of the application.

MAIN LICENCE – The currently most important role in the system is the main licence. Tax advisors and managing directors of tax firms hold it.

• Access to all global files and all files of their firm  
• Access to all sub-applications that have already been rolled out: i.e. from the content management system, the management check and others to the events calendar
• Upload files for all members of the tax firm
• Upload private files 

More information on the content management system

As is best practice in larger systems, we have a live and a test environment. All changes – be it a new feature, a new pop-up or just a copy change – first go into the staging environment for Arxonas to test. Only when everything has been implemented to satisfaction does the respective change go live for all customers.
Accounting made easy: automated financial process with sevDesk

Continuing with Mr. Leitner
Through Mr Leitner’s registration, the first invoice is immediately generated on sevDesk for the first three months with a 100% discount. The next two months, zero invoices go out again. After that, it continues with the regular price. Everything happens automatically, at any time Arxonas has the possibility to make a DATEV export and to edit their texts. Arxonas can thus concentrate fully on producing content for their clients.

More information

With automatically generated invoices and a Salesforce connection, there is no need for manual double entry anywhere. Instead, the customer data is automatically provided by our long-term partner, sevDesk.

Summary: What can Arxonas do with the software?

This means that Arxonas has received a web application in which marketing, customer management, content management and accounting are smoothly and automatically intertwined. They have all the necessary functions – from creating vouchers, to uploading their videos, to processing their invoices – in-house, so they can keep their customers happy. At the same time, with a combination of different cloud solutions, the system is built to be easy to test, scalable and, most importantly, secure.
