Why your CRM should include a shared inbox
Most CRMs store contacts but leave email in Gmail or Outlook. Here's what changes when conversations and contacts live in the same place.
Why a CRM matters for a small business
You're already tracking customers somehow. A CRM just means the information stops living in one person's head.
How often should you email your customers?

What is a shared inbox?

Do you really need marketing automation?
Drip sequences and lead scoring promise scale. For most small teams, they mostly automate being ignored. What to do instead.
