Small & Midsized Businesses can be Nimble with Google Apps
Posted by Cathy Boudreau on Wed, Sep 14, 2011
For years, Small & Midsized Businesses (SMBs) have relied on complex and costly servers and desktop applications to provide support for sales, marketing & customer service automation, accounting, project management and more. Today, companies are turning to solutions like Google Apps to replace that costly infrastructure with cost-effective, business applications that run in the cloud.
Good news for SMBs, Nimble announced today that its award-winning SMB platform for SMBs is now available in the Google Apps MarketplaceTM. By unifying the very best contact management, social networking, and sales and marketing tools into one simple and affordable web-based solution, Nimble is the only app designed to help small companies turn business leads and social connections into sales opportunities. Nimble can currently be found in the Featured and Notable section on the Marketplace home page and is also available in the Customer Management section.
With its unique combination of relationship management, social networking, and sales and marketing tools, Nimble is the perfect addition to the Google Apps Marketplace. Nimble helps businesses capture leads with its website lead capture forms, organize them with its advanced contact manager, and engage them with automated drip marketing campaigns. To further help build relationships with those leads, Nimble enables businesses to run marketing campaigns and engage in social conversations via LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook. As conversations and campaigns turn to business opportunities, Nimble manages the sales pipeline by tracking the deal amounts, probabilities, and conversations that translate to business success.
"Google Apps and the Google Apps Marketplace are transforming the way businesses operate and generate demand,” says Jon Ferrara, Nimble's CEO. “What SMBs need is an application that provides business owners with more effective ways of organizing leads as they come in, engaging leads with all the latest sales, marketing and social tools, and managing the opportunities that result. That is Nimble, and we’re excited to be sharing it now with Google Apps customers.”
“Google is thrilled to welcome Nimble to the Google Apps Marketplace," said Don Dodge, Developer Advocate at Google.
