Promote Open Communication & Collaboration

Today's teams must work across channels to reach customers beyond phone calls and emails with texts, chat, LinkedIn, Facebook messaging, Twitter, and more. This requires a 360 degree view of all communication channels. Collaboration tools streamline workflows through improved scheduling, organized structures, and centralized document storage to keep all team members engaged and show them how their contributions affect coworkers and the project itself. Collaboration and communication are key for goal-oriented teams to effectively manage projects and align efforts.

Tips for Evaluating Collaboration Tools

Look for Omni-Channel

Conversations come in from many sources. If your solution only tracks one channel, you’re missing out on the bigger picture. Find a tool that can monitor and keep track of all conversations with the customer.

Mashup Conversations

Look for a timeline view of your conversations to gain perspective on interactions coming from various sources. Many CRMs don’t have this feature, making it difficult to follow what’s happening.

Gamify Teamwork

Some solutions allow users to gamify beneficial activities as a motivator for teams to properly collaborate. Actions taken towards the gamification are awarded with points and can then be rewarded by the employer.

Find Hidden Relationships

Some solutions will reveal hidden relationships between your employees and the prospects you work with, making it easier to get introductions and improve the strength of relationships.
