For those not familiar with Nimble, they are one of the companies Pioneering Social CRM. Founded by Jon Ferrara, perhaps best known for finding “Goldmine” one of the CRM solutions that forever changed contact management, Nimble is poised to become more than just another tool for social media and contact management, but perhaps a solution ubiquitous with quick aggregation of social data.
This new widget app from Nimble allows users to simply highlight a name in Chrome and it immediately populates a contact to look like the image below.
This amazing tool empowers not only sales professionals, but human resource, business development, marketers and executives to quickly learn about any person they come into contact to.
Just think what a tool like this could do for meeting preparation? Just minutes ahead of a meeting you could highlight the name, “Nimble” them and there you would have a wide-array of relevant data that could be used to learn about the person you are about to engage with.
This futuristic tool opens the doors for better relationship building and online engagement.
Not only do I recommend the tool, but I am also a dedicated user. It is the best solution I have seen so far to quickly aggregate publicly available data to get to better know my customers, partners and prospects.
Check out this video demonstration from the team at Nimble that shows just how easy it is to use this new widget.
