Email integration does not work well when same client involved in multiple deals



Posted Jun 29, 2021

Hi, 

I just want to give a feedback about the email integration. We have the same persons in multiples deals and it not works well with mail integration as many mails are referenced at the worng place.

It is possible to correct it manually but it is a huge work as everybody has to work at this to make the deals clear. 

It would be great to integer a tag in the mail subject to link it to a particular deal associated with the email of the client.

Thanks,

Sébastien Thiry

This would be huge and an ideal way this should work but unfortunately, there is nothing in their forecast.

Hi Sébastien Thiry, Jay Clementson,

I would love to learn a bit more about this problem that you're having and your use case. Could you tell me a bit about it?

Are the same people participating in all conversations across all deals?  

Thanks,

Katarzyna

Hello Katarzyna,

Thank you for your question. To keep it simple, I know you can link an email thread to a certain deal, but the majority of customers are not as tech savy as we are so they start multiple threads for the same deal. This means we need to constantly monitor the deals to make sure the conversation is included in the correct area.

I get that this is tough since the email is mirroring your email account (in my case, Gmail). 

Are the same people participating in all conversations across all deals?  

We have a mix of people. 

One quick thought, if you open an email, it should take you to the deal where that email was sent from instead of first opening the contact card.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you Jay, it's super helpful. 

So I understand that your customers sometimes send you emails in different email threads related to one deal. Does the opposite situation also take place (that within one email thread, the customers cover topics from various deals)?

Yes. They take it as an opportunity to ask all questions instead of jumping to a new thread.

It's to the point where I don't waste my time anymore trying to keep everything separated and communicate more with the customer so they know how I operate.
