MultiChannel Communication (MCC) is a digital communication tool that includes integrated email communication, as well as calling and texting abilities with the SPOTIO phone number. This robust tool gives reps the ability to easily and efficiently communicate with customers and prospects through their phone or computer, and Admins the ability to measure these touch points through SPOTIO's dynamic reporting tool. MCC is a powerful way for businesses to manage communication with prospects, and increase touch points in the journey for current leads or customers.

Emails

Sending and receiving emails through the SPOTIO app with integrated email streamlines communication by allowing users to manage their emails within the SPOTIO platform. Emails are meticulously tracked in the record's History section, providing a timeline of electronic exchanges for each record. Email communications are also stored in the Comms section, allowing for easy reference of previous communication.

Calls

Making calls to prospects and customers has never been easier. Using your SPOTIO phone number calls made & received are automatically logged to the record history. When a call is made you are able to disposition the call by marking the call result & log any notes that are needed for the next outreach. 

After your call has been made, you will be prompted to choose a call result. Once selected, you will be taken back into the record's details page to make any additional changes as needed, such as adding in call notes, updating the pipeline stage, etc. Be sure to hit Save when complete.

Utilize the Comms section of the SPOTIO app to manage your call log & voicemails. You can also obtain visibility in the Record's History.

Texts

Texting includes sending and receiving both SMS (Short Message Service) and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) messages through the mobile and web app. All texts, files, and images sent and received via text to a prospect are automatically saved to the record. The Comms section will also keep a record of all texts sent both manually and automatically through an Autoplay to make responses easy to manage.
