Relationships are not one-day transactions but built over the long term. The true value is created over time, through trust and exchange. These relationships deserve the right CRM:</p><ul style="font-size:15px; color:#464A4D"><li><b>A CRM that works your way:</b> Existing CRMs have always frustrated me, as they are too rigid. Our relationships are richer, more diverse, and unique, and we’re building folk accordingly. Expect more customizability from us, including more templates, more custom fields, introducing custom objects, and more.</li><li><b>A CRM connected to your world:</b> Relationships are not isolated islands. We interact with relationships on a wide variety of channels. We believe the CRM should capture all this data. After introducing this year integrations with Zapier and Make, with Outlook, and supporting more platforms with our chrome extension (Sales navigator, Companies websites, LinkedIn companies) we plan to continue adding more data source and more powerful data enrichment.</li><li><b>A CRM truly built for teams:</b> CRMs have traditionally been built for leadership teams only. We believe that relationships are a multiplayer game, and we are designing folk to be naturally collaborative. The introduction of the notification center, to collaborate with teammates, goes in that sense. We are committed to making collaboration smoother with better roles & permissions, analytics to track your team's performance, and more.</li><li><b>A CRM that lets you treat every of your relationships in a unique way:</b> Receiving a standardized email that feels like part of a spammy campaign is never ideal. We believe that every relationship is unique, and therefore every communication touchpoint should be as well. This year, we have made significant improvements to emailing and introduced magic fields for AI-based email icebreakers.
