Jumping back and forth between your customer relationship management (CRM) software and other sales and marketing tools can be a pain. By integrating your CRM with other tools, your business can increase efficiency and make better, data-backed decisions that help drive growth.
Keep reading to learn more about the numerous benefits of integrating a CRM with other tools.
One of the top benefits of integrating a CRM with other marketing tools is the ability to create a seamless customer journey. In doing so, you can increase customer engagement and conversions. Ultimately, this can lead to more revenue for your brand.
CRM integration helps you craft a sales and marketing strategy that effortlessly guides leads through a customer journey that’s personalized and targeted. This personalization resonates with audiences and can encourage further interaction with your brand, making for satisfied customers and a brand that’s effectively converting leads into loyal customers.
Connecting and centralizing all aspects of the customer journey with your CRM and other tools makes your life easier, to put it simply.
A more complete view of your customer
Integrating your CRM with other tools gives your business access to customer data from different sources and channels, all in one centralized location.
Besides simplifying data sifting, access to all this customer information gives your business a more complete understanding of your customers. Knowing your audience opens the door for opportunities to create personalized campaigns and increase customer engagement and loyalty.
Personalized campaigns
Ever seen an ad that you feel really speaks to you? That’s the power of personalized advertising campaigns. With customer data from your CRM and other marketing tools on hand, your team can create and launch advertising campaigns that effectively target different segments of your audience.
Customers appreciate a business that understands them. When you launch personalized campaigns, your audience will be more inclined to interact with them because the campaigns directly appeal to them, increasing customer engagement.
Whether the campaign appeals to their beliefs and ideals or directly addresses an issue they’re dealing with, personalized campaigns can effectively get customers’ attention and encourage them to interact and continue to work with your business.

By integrating your CRM with other marketing tools, like email marketing platforms or customer service software, your team can increase their efficiency and effectiveness in a few different areas. Those areas include email campaigns, customer service efforts, and data analytics.
Email campaigns
Using CRM automation, your team can set up email drip campaigns so your business can reach customers at precisely the right moments in the customer journey. Drip sequences are automated email campaigns where emails are sent to customers over a period of time. Emails are triggered when customers perform a specific action or are sent according to a predetermined timeline.
Drip sequences save time, effort, and—ultimately—money for your business because they eliminate your team’s need to repeatedly send out the same emails to multiple customers or leads.
Customer service
Automated customer service can come in a few different forms, including chatbots and automated emails. As we just mentioned, your team can set up drip sequences to help move customers through the customer journey. Additionally, your team can set up emails that are automatically triggered when customers inquire about services or products.
These emails serve as a confirmation to customers that their inquiry has been received and your team will be getting back to them. These automated confirmation emails are great customer service tools because they keep customers in the loop and can answer any additional questions they may have while they wait for your customer service team to connect with them.
Data analysis
Manual data analysis can be a pain (and time-consuming), but by integrating your Nutshell CRM with web analytics and tracking tools, you can automate your data analysis efforts. Nutshell offers reporting and analytics features so you can interpret data from any channel connected to your CRM.
