Customer Relationship Management
Excellent customer relationship management is the cornerstone of every successful marketer. It’s also the heart and soul of the WORK[etc] platform. Through WORK[etc]’s CRM, you can access a centralized list containing the contact information of everybody you do business with. It lets you communicate with your workforce, connect with your customers, and fire off email marketing blasts with ease.
With WORK[etc], account management is a breeze. The integrated platform automatically consolidates any changes or additions to your customers’ activity history, be it billing or financial changes or any additional projects you’ve undertaken for them. This allows you to quickly pinpoint customer concerns and answer their questions without having to worry about constantly updating your customers’ profiles.
If a customer calls you, for example, you can bring up their contact record using the platform’s powerful search and sorting functions. From there, you can browse through their activity history, additional contact information, notes, and reminders. It’s fast, smooth, and keeps you from having to ask repeat customers the same dozen or so questions every time they call.
We know exactly how important company transparency is in maintaining good customer relationships. WORK[etc]’s customer portal allows your customers to view their activity history with your company. This can include information on past projects and progress on current ones. It also gives your customers a communication tool that can be used to provide feedback, approve marketing assets, and view their outstanding invoices. Putting both the company and the customer on the same page allows for a more harmonious and successful collaboration.
Lead Creation and Tracking

By using WORK[etc]’s web forms, you can establish a link that lets you collect lead information through your website and transfer that information into WORK[etc]. You can pick and choose which fields to show on the platform’s customizable leads dashboard, giving you the power to choose exactly how extensive the information you collect will be.
Once the leads are in the system, you can update their current status as necessary while the system itself automatically generates extensive reports. This allows you and your sales associates to get relevant information on a lead at a glance and obtain detailed reports on everything from lead progress and activity to performance and sales with a few mouse clicks, freeing you and your sales force up to focus on other pertinent duties. Since the system’s automatic reports are based entirely on the information entered into it, it can also serve as an excellent accountability tracker.
Lead progress can be modified using a simple drop-down menu. Custom fields also let you add or update pertinent information such as previous communications and additional notes to the lead. If you need to get an overall view of your leads and see where your company currently stands, you can track their progress through the sales pipeline. This custom graphical representation can be further broken down by checking lead stages for specific sales associates or for the entire company as a whole.
