Beyond Social Media: ConnectUp Advances Relationship Connections with InsideView Enrichment
San Francisco (PRWEB) June 04, 2015 -- ConnectUp, a next generation communications tech company in Silicon Valley, today announced the general availability of ConnectUp Beta with InsideView. The new service, available as both a mobile app and a SaaS offering, regains the ground lost in social media connection drop-off, allows people to manage all their contacts in a single service and solves the problem of "being connected to everyone and communicating with no one."
Why it matters?
As social media platforms advance their commercial agendas, they create two problems: loss of control over your personal connections and lots of "noise" from offers, advertising and clutter. If you are engaged in an important endeavor, the resulting low yield from social media can be a results killer.
"We are all hyper-connected on personal and business social media platforms. Yet many studies point to a huge drop-off in the effectiveness of social media as an organizing tool," said Rob Garcia, Chief Product Officer at ConnectUp. "Basically, people have become tone-deaf to connections on social media because there is too much noise.
“Our latest version of ConnectUp allows people to regain control of their connections and reach them using a more efficient, proven set of methods. And now, our users will be able to enhance what they know about a contact with real-time data from InsideView, giving them the ability to understand their contacts and communicate far more effectively.”
“Business people need real-time insights about their colleagues, customers, and prospects to grab attention and engage effectively,” agreed Heidi Tucker, VP of Global Alliances at InsideView. “With InsideView, the information you need to know about your contacts and their companies is brought right to you, within your ConnectUp app. No need for time-consuming research.”
ConnectUp is a next generation communications app that enables users to regain control of their personal and business connections - recapturing the information from social media silos. The app is a key tool for "communications critical" projects, bypassing low results channels and connecting directly via mobile text or email. By teaming up with InsideView, users gain not only better communications, but also get highly enriched information about their contacts. The end result is a major advancement in the ability to communicate with and know about your connections.
