X2CRM Version 6.5 Update Highlights:

X2Workflow Check-in Location Marketing Automation

X2Workflow is a CRM Automation Designer that allows CRM Admins to track website visitors, capture web leads and create automated actions based on customer behaviors. X2Workflow is a clever and incredibly customizable business tool that places the power of X2CRM marketing, sales and service processes in the hands of customers, allowing them to fine tune their business and harness the abilities of the X2Engine platform.

New in this release is a "Check-in" X2Workflow Action. This new location workflow action allows users to stay updated with a Notification, Email, SMS, or Activity Feed post that displays which X2 users are nearby as well as Google Map directions to each user using criteria such as distance away or time since last X2 user action.

For example, when a customer opens an email, not only does X2CRM detect that the email was opened but also determines the location of the user and then notifies the closest X2CRM user and also sends the user directions to the customer's address. When buyer attention spans are limited, being able to take advantage of location to create new customer interactions ensures that every opportunity is captured.
