Eman Burashid December 2, 2019

LinkedIn is a powerful tool for small businesses looking to grow their network, boasting 660 million members worldwide

5 Benefits of Using a Social CRM System

Eman Burashid November 24, 2019

One of the trickiest things about social media is that there are multiple platforms you need to keep up with. Just about every business should have a presence on “the big four” (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn). And for certain businesses, additional platforms like SnapChat or Pinterest might make sense.

When you’re juggling customer information that’s coming in through your website, your email, your customer service numbers, and all of your social channels, if you don’t have a system to keep it all straight, you’ll want to pull your hair out!
