New Features & Enhancements
InTouch
The InTouch Module for Elements gives you the ability to keep track of, plan, remind, and build comprehensive client touches for a complete customer journey. By leveraging the “Last Contacted On” (LCO) date within the InTouch module, you can schedule future interaction dates and methods -- call, text, email, or in-person meeting for Contacts and Prospect Relationships.
Date of "Last Contacted On"
Displays the last date that a linked task was scheduled or a linked email was saved. This field will update even if you link the task or the email to the record at a later time.
Date of "Next Activity"
Displays the due date of the next incomplete task. When the date is in the past, this indicates that there is an overdue task.
Time & Expense
The Time & Expense module automates efficiency tracking. By associating a dollar amount to the module, Time & Expense automatically provides efficiency and profit analytics associated with Activities, Prospects, and Clients. Eliminating frustrations around how you track the level of effort and amount of time spent with Clients and Prospects. Time & Expense provides the ability to hone in your or your team's most efficient and valuable efforts and clients.
Knowing how valuable a task is can make planning easier, allow you to make more informed marketing decisions, and provide more financial awareness.
