Hey everyone,

Quick question out of curiosity.

I work as a manager in a consulting firm, and a lot of my day goes into communicating across platforms like Slack, WhatsApp, Teams, LinkedIn messages, etc. Switching between all of them sometimes feels a bit messy.

A couple of things I personally struggle with are important tasks getting buried in chats and constantly jumping between apps to keep up with conversations.

Would be great to hear how you handle this in your day-to-day work.

    That makes sense, and I can see why sticking to a few platforms keeps things manageable.

    The challenge for me comes when clients reach out on multiple platforms I don’t control. Tracking those messages and taking further action becomes tricky. I’m still looking for a solution that can help handle that smoothly.

      I haven’t been on Facebook in awhile and I don’t know if you mean a business page or your personal but can you set up an automated message like, “Thanks for reaching out, we’d love to talk with you, you can text us or call us on this number, here’s our email, and here’s our main office number.” Or something like that?

      Yeah, when that happens we just do dumbass redirect.

      Thanks so much for reaching out to us, id love to talk it over with you. Give me a call and you can find out whether we’re gong to be a good fit.

      For us anyway, linked in just isn’t a place we would acquire real meaningful clients. Any contact there will be low yield, low priority.
