“Contract automation reduces our costs by 25%”, Lennart Fenger, Founder & Managing Director.
This is the story of how Dreivers integrated Contractbook with Pipedrive to automate all manual tasks, and reduced working hours by 30%.
All those creative companies coming up with surprising solutions to improve otherwise stagnated industries through digital technologies is what makes the tech industry so fascinating these years.
One of those companies is Dreivers.
They’ve created a digital P2P car trading platform that gives you the security and convenience of a traditional car dealer while keeping prices competitive.
With Dreivers’ digital platform, customers don’t have to pay for fancy glass buildings, sales commissions and Italian coffee machines. Instead, Dreivers has created a scalable, digital model for trading cars. The buyers receive all the same guarantees of quality and conditions as they would otherwise, while the seller gets to keep more money for themselves. That’s the beauty of a digital solution. It’s simple and efficient.
Since Dreivers is a high-volume/low-margin business that earns less per sale than their analogue competitors, they must optimize their processes to ensure their business is scalable and efficient.
That’s why they turned to Contractbook. Their goal was to reduce man-hours spent on manual tasks in the sales process.
The solution looked something like this:
When a prospective seller contacts Dreivers via their website, a deal is automatically created in their CRM system (in this case, Pipedrive), and a welcome email is sent to the seller.
From then, the deal moves through the stages outlined in Dreivers’ CRM. Each stage is associated with either an automation or a simple drag-and-drop action in Dreivers’ CRM.
After the completion of the first task, the seller needs to provide some data about the car and agree on a fair asking price. Then the deal stage is updated in the CRM, and a power-of-attorney is auto-generated for the seller to sign. The signature triggers two new auto-generated contracts with some further formalities around tests and mortgages. When those agreements are signed, the deal stages are automatically updated in Pipedrive, and Dreivers are ready to trade the car.
Once a buyer is found, new buyer and seller agreements are auto-generated through Contractbook based on Dreivers templates. When they are signed, the deal is marked as done in their CRM, the bank receives the notice it needs, and the change of ownership executes.
It sounds complicated, but in reality, it’s pretty straightforward.
To put it in simpler terms: Through an integration with their CRM (in this instance Pipedrive but it also works with Hubspot and Salesforce), the creation of new contracts is automated through a chain of triggers. And once the contract is signed, we automatically update the deal stage in their CRM.
In that way, Dreivers can manage their sales operations workflow with very few manual touchpoints while keeping a complete overview of the process. Around half of the tasks associated with a deal are automated. The rest of their workflow is narrowed down to drag-and-drop tasks.
As mentioned above, the goal was to reduce man-hours spent on manual tasks in the sales process. According to Lennart Fenger, the founder and managing director of Dreivers, they managed to reach that goal.
Dreivers have calculated an astounding reduction in working hours and costs associated with each sale. Working hours have been reduced by a 30%, which has led to a 25% reduction in costs associated with each transaction. This has enabled them to increase their profit margins in a very competitive market.
In addition, this automated flow reduces the risk of human error. There is no risk of typos or oversights when there is no manual data entry.
Last but not least, this professional and digital setup also reduces the effort for Dreivers’ customers, which increases their confidence and trust in the company.
As Fenger puts it: “It is a very nice customer experience that gives them peace of mind.”
Dreivers’ setup is pretty advanced. The principle, however, has shown to be brilliant for companies with all sorts of needs. In fact, this type of automation is the most popular and widely used contract automation setup on Contractbook.

Dreivers saved 30 % of the time spent on sales processes - time they can spend optimizing their business. How much can you save?
Burd faced a huge administrative burden connected to recruiting in just sorting out the paperwork and ensuring all the legal formalities are in place.
The manual touchpoints are automated from the moment a new employee goes through their form on the website until they arrive at Burd's facility for their very first gig.

Thanks to Contractbook, Burd gained at least 15 minutes per recruit of saved time and a much more error-prone and compliant setup.
