“CRMs fail due to lack of use. Nobody wants to constantly be in their CRM, manually editing and updating contact records. Nimble is the first relationship platform that automatically creates records with rich insights and logs all email and social interactions,” said Jon Ferrara, CEO, Nimble.
“The combination of Google Apps for Work with Nimble’s Small Business CRM Productivity Suite will enable millions of businesses across the world to build relationships that accelerate business growth.”
The integration of Nimble into Google Apps minimizes manual data entry by building the CRM from data — contacts, company records, calendar inputs and Drive attachments — pulled in from the company’s Google Apps.

Joseph Kelly, Product Marketing Manager, Nimble, gives a user case of Convert, an enterprise A/B testing tool, on how it uses the social CRM and Google Apps for Work together. Convert’s CEO Dennis van der Heijden, tells Kelly, “Since Convert is a small and agile team, we are always collaborating on shared documents and client communication to allow every team member to give their input. In Nimble we search and filter the customer segments that we communicate with and do a quick export. By using Nimble tags and Google Spreadsheets, we build spiders and use manual labor to enrich spreadsheets and rank leads. This allows us to use the best of both worlds.”
