Thought I would share some of the apps that I use for work. I can only wish that there were more industry related apps available to those of us in the industry.
Zello
My son turned me on to this app about a month ago. Do you remember the Nextel radio phones? If so, this app replicates that radio experience with the instant connection. After downloading the app, you can submit your contact list to see if you have any mutual connections that are using Zello. I was surprised that almost forty of my contacts were already using Zello. My first inclination is that this would be an awesome app for instant access to the sales team. In addition the sales team can have quick access to their managers and other key sales or support people. It's a Free app!
PrintAnalyze
I first learned of Print Analyze about a month ago. My first impression was that the synthesized was a little funky, however I loved the fact that I could get immediate data on almost any printer and copier that was manufactured. The ability to get the date of intro, MSRP, consumable cost, speeds and feeds in a few seconds won me over! The app also has the ability to add multiple devices and then generate a simple report for the end user or myself. With the PrintAnalzye App I can be the guru of knowledge and as we all know, knowledge is power. This is not a Free app, however I feel that Print Analyze app when used correctly can help me win additional orders which translates to additional cash for us.
Periscope
I'm fascinated with the ability to do live streaming over the web. The Periscope app allows me to see periscope users streaming video from almost every part of the planet. I believe the Periscope app can play a vital role in marketing our services to our clients. For example, with the help of the Go Pro H4 & iPhone setup a live stream of a copier demonstration, maybe a feature demonstration, and or a short training session. The possibilities are endless for us to market our services to existing and new clients. Live streaming of product demonstrations would be awesome! Hey, sizzle still sells right?
Click2Map
I've been a Click2Map user for the last year. The Click2Map App will give you geographic mapping of your contacts. After downloading Click2Map you then select your geo area and then start entering the addresses of your contacts. Click2Map supplies a limited amount of emoji's but enough to identify different types of accounts. When out in the field, I can then use Click2Map to maximize my time to make a few additional stop ins for prospects and clients. What's really cool, is the ability to see where I have a concentration of accounts and all those beautiful emoji's that represent existing clients. Click2Map is Free.
Zoho CRM
I just downloaded this app on my Android the device the other day. Zoho CRM is cloud based and also offers a mobile app which gives you the ability to access your contacts, accounts, prospects and leads when you're in the field. From the mobile app I can view tasks, events, quotes, calls, contacts, leads and my funnel with an easy to use interface. I'm still experimenting with the Zoho CRM and the app, however after looking at many apps, I'm pretty sure this is the one I'll settle on. The Zoho CRM Standard subscription will only set you back $15 per month.
