Case Study: Red Door Interactive boosts profitability by 6% and accelerates budgeting 85% with Sage Intacct

Marketing Agency Improves Bottom Line and Scales Finance with Sage Intacct

Red Door Interactive, a full-service marketing and advertising agency founded in 2002 with 80+ employees and two offices, struggled with a legacy on-prem Microsoft Dynamics SL system and a disconnected mix of tools (FRx, AtTask, Concur, Paylocity, Salesforce). Time tracking, percent-complete revenue recognition, and frequent headcount-driven budgeting became cumbersome, causing duplicate data entry, invoicing errors, and limited visibility as the company scaled.

Switching to cloud-native Sage Intacct and integrating with Expensify, Tableau and Domo automated workflows, improved timesheet and approval processes, and enabled Sage Intacct Budgeting & Planning. The result: a 6% boost in profitability, 85% faster budgeting, ~55 hours saved on monthly reporting, an 83% reduction in A/P processing time, a 33% rise in finance productivity, and the ability to scale with 28% growth without adding finance headcount.
