JustReachOut, a startup founded in 2014, struggled with cross-team communication, particularly between sales, marketing, and service teams, leading to issues such as brand misrepresentation, trial churn, and longer issue resolution times. The company's founder discovered the importance of unified communication through an article on omnichannel contact centers, which highlighted the statistic that 72% of people expect customer service teams to know who they are and what they've purchased. To address these issues, JustReachOut implemented a unified communication model using all-in-one tools like Help Scout, which provided transparency into customer communications across teams, and software integrations such as Zapier, which connected multiple apps without writing code. By embracing these tools, the company aimed to create a consistent experience for customers and improve business performance.
