Plaxo for Your Small Business – Part I: Benefits
Posted by | Tommy Liu | December 4, 2009 | 3 Comments
Plaxo is an online address book and social networking service that provides automatic updates you of your friend’s contact information and synchronizes important information into one single place, allowing you to stay connected with friends, family, colleagues, co-workers, and others. Plaxo Pulse, Plaxo’s social media aggregator, automatically brings you what your contacts are sharing from all over the web, because chances are they’re using different sites to find and share content.
Benefits of Plaxo:
Updates – When clients change their e-mail, URL, phone number or location on their profile your Plaxo account will automatically be updated.
Privacy – You have many different relationships and would share certain information with some and not with others, and Plaxo recognizes this and allows you to set what you share with whom accordingly.
Synchronization – Your Plaxo calendar syncs with Yahoo!, Google Mail, Outlook, Mac and a growing number of sync points to make sure you don’t miss anything.
Portability – Having all your contacts in one place such as Plaxo is incredibly convenient when your computer crashes or when you’re switching e-mail providers as all your contacts can be easily transferred and stored on Plaxo.
Expanding Your Network – Make new friends and contacts; join groups that share your business interest.
Building Relationships – Comment, communicate and engage with contacts, because you want your clients to be returning clients.
Sharable: You can share photos, videos, reviews, blogs and more thanks to Pulse’s integration with Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, Digg and a growing list of activity stream sites you can activate.
