What Tech Tools Are Your Team Crying Out For?

Every team in the modern business world has a suite of tech tools at their disposal. It’s what makes selling, booking, resupplying, and customer service a whole lot more efficient. If you did the same tasks with a pen and paper, you’d be there for a week trying to coordinate just one day of business! 

But is there a tool missing from this suite? Well, yes! There’s a strong chance your team is crying out for something that’ll make their current working frustrations a thing of the past, and it’s time to listen to them! Here’s a few we’ve seen requested a million times over.

An Easy Project Dashboard

If only there was one place every member of the team could look to check on the work for the day… Wait, there is! 

A project dashboard is a great bit of software for any and all teams, as it makes keeping up with project stages, burning questions, progress updates, and deadlines a simple matter of double clicking the app. 

If you’re not using one already, we highly recommend getting one set up for your workplace at large. Plus, many of them allow users to set up multiple dashboards, to make sure your team only gets the essential updates they need to know about. 

A Centralized Messenger App

When you’re at work, how many different apps do you use to stay in touch? One or two, depending on who needs contacting? Your email inbox counts here as well, just so you know!

And for most companies, the answer is a simple ‘too many!’ Because the more apps you use to communicate, the less efficient that communication becomes. 

It requires more focus and energy to keep track of conversation. It requires people to be logged in and present in more than one area, which unnecessarily complicates things. 

And above all, it can make your team far less alert to any notifications that come through. Remember, the more pings that come off a computer or phone, the more likely the receiver will just tune it out.

Something to Cut Through the Noise

No matter the admin demands at hand, there’s always going to be a lot of ‘noise’ to block out. This is especially true in your sales department.

Your sales team is there to identify and target new leads, but some leads are going to be far less valuable than others. Wasting time on the dead-end roads can cost you – and if your team is on commission, it’ll cost them as well. 

And that’s where an AI sales technology framework can come in. AI tools need tweaking before they’re properly deployed, and it’s always best to train your team in using them, but they can make the job easier. 

Your team could probably do with a couple more tech tools! But be sure to check in with them first. Find out what they find frustrating about their workflow, then look into the digital solutions that could solve it.
