Tired of missing out on sales because you or your team didn't follow up quick enough? Maybe your team only follows up with prospects two or three times, even though the average American consumer has to be followed up with 13+ times before making a purchase? Sick of your team being inefficient because they're too busy managing multiple platforms that don't communicate with one another in order to sell? When a lead comes in on our client's website (or social media platform, etc.), Community Connect responds with a text message and/or email within minutes, while also notifying you and your team so that you can connect with your new prospect immediately (or delay the responses by a matter of minutes, hours or even days to suit YOUR sales process). Combine all of your communication and sales efforts into one place, and never miss a sales opportunity again with our automated follow up machine! Community Connect allows your customers to connect with your team through text messaging, email, Facebook messenger and more to do business with you. Then we’ll build out proven follow-up campaigns that reach back out to them over the course of days, weeks and even months to give you the best chance to close the deal. After they become your client, we’ll also generate more reviews to enhance your online reputation every chance we get. Community Connect not only allows you to talk to your customers the way THEY want to communicate, it also plugs in directly with Facebook, Google Drive, Microsoft Office, and more than 2,000 other platforms. ​Quit using individual apps that each handle one part of your sales funnel and start using the one tool that you need as your stand alone tool for mass email, text message, automated appointment scheduler and a virtual assistant all-in-one! ​Not only can you and your entire team manage everything from your desktop, but you'll each have access to our power-packed app, with push notifications, anywhere, anytime. ​If you want to generate more appointments from online marketing, don't go another day of missing out on sales. Let Community Connect turn leads into conversations, and conversations into sales.
