That\u2019s why high-growth teams are refusing to rely on fragmented external apps. They are looking for an all-in-one communication solution with built-in video conferencing features<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enter Pumble<\/a> by CAKE.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Having integrated video conferencing<\/a> features in your team communication app<\/a> makes your workdays simpler. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For one, it reduces technical complexity<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s face it, having highly specialized apps for every task means having to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s taxing. It steals your time, focus, and energy, and tanks your productivity<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pumble integrates high-definition video conferencing directly into your digital headquarters<\/a>. This allows you to transition from a text-based discussion to a face-to-face call with a single click. <\/p>\n\n\n Sounds good? Try Pumble now!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Furthermore, doing everything in one app also allows for context retention<\/strong>. When you switch between several apps, you leave knowledge and information trapped behind. So, your communication becomes fragmented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, let\u2019s say your team has a project to finish. You hold a meeting via one video conferencing tool<\/a> to arrange task distribution, then agree on deadlines via text in another app, and finally share project briefs via a third screen sharing app<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The chances of everyone remembering the details shared in those 3 apps is small. You\u2019ll probably have to go over everything multiple times \u2014 and still, not everyone will know what they\u2019re supposed to do and when. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The bottom line for your team? Fewer tasks will get done due to miscommunication, productivity will plummet, and you\u2019ll lose revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By keeping your chats, files, meetings, and meeting follow-ups in one searchable space, Pumble ensures that the context of a conversation is never lost<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But what does that look like in real life? How would your day-to-day look like with Pumble?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s see. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the biggest benefits of video conferencing in the remote or hybrid workplace<\/a> is that it helps teams feel more connected<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether it\u2019s daily check-ins, brainstorming sessions, or one-on-one catch ups, virtual meetings help everyone stay in the loop and feel like they\u2019re a vital part of the team<\/strong>. Plus, features like screen sharing, meeting recording, and live chat during a meet make it easier to share ideas and collaborate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s see the 5 ways you can leverage Pumble\u2019s video (and other) features to eliminate the technical complexity of multi-app environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Imagine you\u2019re working with a fragmented tech stack of 5 or more different apps<\/strong>. Now also imagine your work days begin with a daily team sync meeting at 9 a.m. sharp. What would that look like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n You open your laptop and log into your email, project management app, and business messaging app. There, you see the reminder for the daily sync (you\u2019d love to just reply to that message and say what you\u2019re working on, but that\u2019s not how your team works). <\/p>\n\n\n\n So, you open your calendar to click on the meeting link, which automatically opens a third-party app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But, of course, the app is asking for quick log in info (even though you open the app every single day). You quickly go through the process and finally enter your meeting \u2014 at 09:05 a.m. And, to add insult to injury, you\u2019re the first one there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sounds familiar?<\/p>\n\n\n\n With a solution like Pumble<\/a>, all you need to do to start a daily sync meeting is to click on the call button. You have 4 different options for conducting a meeting via Pumble:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try out Pumble\u2019s User Groups<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Having integrated video conferencing capabilities in the group messaging app<\/a> your team is using allows everyone to jump on a call and immediately start discussing project progress. This ensures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, with an app like Pumble, your daily syncs will be better organized,<\/strong> which means your team will be more coordinated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83c\udf93 Pumble Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Take a look at how some types of teams use Pumble for more than just daily stand-ups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pumble encourages users to organize their conversations into channels<\/a> and structure communication around projects, departments, or topics<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This ensures all information is retained and neatly organized. Each channel is a dedicated workspace where you can find information, discussions, updates, files, and resources related to a specific topic.<\/p>\n\n\n This makes Pumble a godsend for teams that hold a lot of meetings. All participants can refer to the information shared in channels and can get real-time context without leaving the meeting<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That means there are fewer instances of \u201cLet\u2019s circle back to that\u201d and \u201cI\u2019ll check and let you know next time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, project planning meetings become infinitely more productive and collaboration becomes more successful<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Along with channels, Pumble\u2019s threaded messages<\/a> also come in handy in similar situations. Threads keep all discussions related to a specific message tied to the message in question<\/strong>. They make it easier to both follow a conversation and refer back to it at a later time. <\/p>\n\n\n Threads allow users to keep meeting follow-ups and action items in the same channel as the call<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, they\u2019re also the perfect solution when you need an asynchronous alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While Pumble\u2019s one-click meetings make it easy to establish a face-to-face connection, not every conversation needs to be a meeting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes, instead of starting a video or voice call<\/a>, you\u2019re better off opting for asynchronous communication \u2014 to avoid meeting overload<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So, consider sending or even scheduling a message<\/a> and letting your teammates reply in threads whenever it suits them. And if you think you can\u2019t say it all in a text, send a <\/strong>voice message<\/strong><\/a> or a <\/strong>video snippet<\/strong><\/a> instead of scheduling a meeting<\/strong>. It might save your team some time and sanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83c\udf93 Pumble Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Project planning takes a lot of work \u2014 no one knows that better than project managers. See how they use Pumble to make their daily tasks easier:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, oftentimes, asynchronous communication can\u2019t cut it, and you must schedule a meeting. For example, when discussing project progress with a client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to Pumble\u2019s guest access<\/a>, you can invite external stakeholders into your workspace<\/strong>. That way, they\u2019ll get an insight into your progress (without getting too much of a peek behind the scenes, of course). <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can create specific channels just for your guests or give them access to one or more existing channels. And, as an admin, you get to pick how long they have access to your workspace.<\/p>\n\n\n Explore Pumble\u2019s Guest Access<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n You can just as easily start meetings with guests as you can with regular users \u2014 a one-on-one meeting from your direct message<\/a> with them or a group meeting<\/a> from the channel they were invited to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Either way, once the meeting starts, you\u2019ll be able to utilize another Pumble feature <\/strong>\u2014 screen sharing<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 to ensure the collaboration with your client is nothing but a smashing success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can screen share presentations<\/a>, decks, and progress reports. These can help you highlight your progress and clarify any uncertainties during complex project reviews<\/strong> with external stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n Presentations are also useful in-house tools<\/strong> that allow for real-time collaboration<\/a>. Sharing knowledge via presentations allows for better team alignment, collaboration, and communication. It also creates a perfect spot for brainstorming in a safe environment \u2014 especially via in-call messages<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In-call chats make it easy for people to share quick updates, send links, or just ask questions during a meeting or a presentation, without interrupting or talking over someone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Presentations can also turn meetings into reusable resources<\/strong>. You can come back to a presentation time and time again, especially when it\u2019s shared in all relevant Pumble channels right after a meeting \u2014 so make sure to always do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The same goes for meetings. They can also become a reusable resource if they\u2019re recorded \u2014 as you\u2019ll see in the next chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n Invite clients, contractors, or freelancers as guests into your Pumble workspace.<\/p>\n\n Having one centralized digital headquarters ensures effective team dynamics<\/a>. When everything is in one place, communication, collaboration, and working towards a common goal is much easier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s especially true for fast-paced teams like sales teams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pumble allows sales teams to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n And, thanks to Pumble\u2019s mobile apps<\/a>, all of this can happen on the go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \n Pumble by CAKE.com is available on both Android and iOS<\/p>\n\n The benefit of being able to do everything within one app is twofold:<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the features that stands out the most for sales teams \u2014 especially for building client relationships<\/a> \u2014 is Pumble\u2019s meeting recording<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Recording meetings with clients allows sales reps to focus on the conversation rather than note-taking. That means they can make a more meaningful connection with a prospective client and maybe close the deal faster than they would otherwise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Plus, the recording of a successful pitch (or a sale) can later be used for coaching and training sessions. <\/p>\n\n\n Explore Pumble\u2019s Meeting recording<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall, meeting recording can help sales teams improve strategies and identify best practices to increase win rates<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83c\udf93 Pumble Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is just one of the benefits that Pumble offers to sales teams. To find out what the rest are, read the following article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n A lot of different Pumble features<\/a> can immensely help with training and onboarding new employees<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, thanks to Pumble\u2019s unlimited message history<\/a>, the resources shared in your workspace will remain forever available to all existing and new users<\/strong>. This makes onboarding new hires<\/a> easier, since they can immediately get access to the existing materials, documents, and information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pumble\u2019s video conferencing also comes in handy during training and onboarding \u2014 for new hires and their mentors alike. Holding one-on-one and group onboarding and training sessions via voice and video calls<\/strong> allows teams to slowly introduce new employees to the company\u2019s processes, procedures, and teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n Onboard new hires easily with Pumble, the all-in-one communication app.<\/p>\n\n Reducing the technical complexity of the tools your team uses daily should be your highest priority. Having too many highly specialized tools instead of one robust, all-in-one app is a waste of time, productivity, and, ultimately, money. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s why high-profile teams are always on the lookout for a solution that will allow them to communicate and collaborate within one app. And, having integrated video conferencing is crucial<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pumble is the ideal communication tool \u2014 it comes with high-definition video conferencing, allowing for both text and video communication, all for a very affordable price<\/a>. It will help you hold efficient meetings, reduce loss of context, and increase overall productivity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And, if you want to optimize your workflow even further, you should consider upgrading to the CAKE.com Productivity Suite<\/a>. The suite includes an Enterprise subscription to both Pumble and its two sister products \u2014 Clockify<\/a> for time tracking and Plaky<\/a> for project management.
