How this End-to-End Email & Team Chat Service is Boosting Workplace Productivity
New studies have uncovered that when communication platforms are fragmented, productivity tends to decline, confusion arises, and communication silos are formed.
When there are multiple disconnected platforms for communication, it becomes harder for individuals and teams to collaborate effectively and to meet eye to eye. This can result in wasted time, miscommunication, and isolated pockets of information that hinder overall productivity and disrupt the flow of information across the organization.
US businesses lose an annual cost of $12,506 per employee due to miscommunication. Presently, the link between effective communication and business outcomes is stronger than ever. However, when communication is executed properly, it yields significant benefits. Studies reveal that 72% of individuals attest to increased productivity, 63% report higher levels of customer satisfaction, and 60% observe enhanced employee confidence.
These statistics emphasize the positive impact of effective communication on various aspects of business performance. By fostering strong communication practices, businesses can improve productivity, enhance customer relationships, and boost employee morale and confidence, ultimately contributing to their overall success.
With these benefits in mind, Spike, the leading conversational email app, aims to fill the void of disorganized communication among SMBs by launching Spike for Teams. This end-to-end email and team chat service delivers an unparalleled unified communication and collaboration experience for small-to-medium-sized businesses, including agencies, law firms, IT firms, development agencies, and anyone who needs to collaborate efficiently.
"Spike has been recognized as the world’s leading conversational email app on the market with more than 1 million active users globally,” says Dvir Ben Aroya, CEO of Spike. “Now, we're taking our vision of modern and unified communication and collaboration to the next level by launching an integrated email and messaging service for businesses.”
