How Pipedrive helped Flowbird increase its business by 23%
Flowbird, a UK marketing and CRM consultancy, struggled to use its marketing-based tools to manage its clients’ sales needs.
Pipedrive’s ActiveDEMAND integration helped Flowbird bridge the gap between sales and marketing. Since the company has been using Pipedrive’s integrations, lead management tools and workflow automations, it’s seen a 23% increase in business.
“We now have the ability to immediately trigger long-term nurture processes directly from inside Pipedrive whilst still on the phone to the contact. Before, we would have simply created a follow-up task and probably have lost the business before getting back to them.”
