  1. Jetpack CRM

    Jetpack: A CRM Perfect for Many Businesses

    JetpackWhat comes to mind when you think of a jetpack? If you immediately conjured up an image of someone hovering in the air wearing a “backpack that flies” – you are in good company. However, when it comes to your company, the Jetpack plugin in WordPress does much more than merely suspend your company as bystanders watch.  Rather, the WordPress plugin is designed to help keep your company moving forward and helps you connect better with those you come into contact with.

    Among many things, Jetpack now is a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) tool designed to help you keep your clients happy so you can continue to grow your business. It works easily within WordPress, so you don’t have to set up a separate site or platform to use it. Instead, you host your own data using your own server, making it safer than third-party options that can create security risks. In addition, Jetpack CRM allows you to set up admin roles, specific permissions, and combine it with other security plugins so you can be certain that your site is all you need it to be.

    So, what is it that Jetpack CRM has that makes it so ideal? Glad you asked.

But while these items can still be useful, modern technology has definitely taken a lead role- especially that of the website over the business card.

In fact, it can easily be said that a website is far more valuable than a business card- as nice as those little cards might be!
