ClearSlide Announces Acquisition of Seed Mail and Introduces ClearSlide Mail
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – September 24, 2014
ClearSlide, the leading sales engagement platform, today announced it has acquired the critically acclaimed mobile email application Seed Mail from Chinese-based Mangrove Technologies and has launched ClearSlide Mail. With ClearSlide Mail, sales people have the ability to be more responsive on their mobile devices and can now enjoy increased productivity and insight into prospects’ activities while away from the office.
As the buyer’s journey has evolved and buyers are more educated and informed about products before their first contact with a sales person, the ability to respond quickly to a prospect’s needs and follow up immediately is a critical need for the modern seller. Today’s announcement addresses the need for speed and insights in the selling process and empowers sales people with the power of their ClearSlide content, as well as any content from Box, Dropbox, or their phone, no matter where they are.
In addition to being an intuitive, full-featured email client for Gmail™, Outlook™, Yahoo, Exchange, and more, ClearSlide Mail provides sales people and leaders the ability to track customer engagement, send ClearSlide content, and include re-usable message templates. These capabilities mirror the capabilities in the ClearSlide web-based and email-plugin platforms.
“ClearSlide will integrate into any app or device that salespeople use to frequently communicate with customers, especially mobile devices. We continue to redefine the modern sales team and dramatically improve our customers’ sales productivity,” said Al Lieb, CEO of ClearSlide. “ClearSlide Mail brings the full power of ClearSlide to mobile devices and enables sales people to communicate with customers and substantially accelerate sales cycles. We saw great potential in the award-winning Seed Mail app and were very excited to partner with Mangrove on bringing their beautiful interface and easy-to-use technology into the ClearSlide family of products.”
The ClearSlide Mail app is available for free in the Apple App Store and will allow all users to connect to other services like Box and Dropbox in order to pull content to include in emails. In order to leverage the advanced features and sales-specific insights and analytics built into the app, customers will need a ClearSlide account.
