Podium Expands Interaction Management Platform With Teamchat

New communication tool designed to help businesses streamline interactions.


LEHI, Utah — Podium announced the addition of Teamchat to its existing suite of interaction management tools. The new communication solution will help local businesses centralize company interactions and allow employees to conveniently collaborate internally within the same platform used to interact with customers and vendors.
 
With Teamchat, internal teams can exchange direct messages and group messages, include clickable links, send and receive attachments and use mentions to help simplify and streamline internal communications. The solution centralizes interactions between team members, as well as between the company and customers.
 
By centralizing interactions, employees can conveniently collaborate and drive leads into customers. Having conversations and sending information in context leads to better service for customers than simply sending memos, and convenient communication can help employees feel more engaged in work and improve camaraderie among coworkers. Teamchat has been specifically designed for local businesses. 
 
“We set out to solve the review gap for local businesses, but in doing so, we found more pain points that we knew we could alleviate,” said Eric Rea, CEO of Podium. “This addition to our suite of interaction management solutions will help make communication easier for these organizations in a way that email, text and tools built for larger companies can’t. We know local businesses are the backbone of our economy—and our communities—and are dedicated to helping them be more efficient and successful.”
