Accelerate Your Xing Prospecting Activities

Posted by Jesse Williams, 8:45 AM, 06.10.2016

Sales prospecting is all about creating personalized connections with leads. To do this, sales reps are spending more time on social platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Xing with the simple goal of finding personal connection points with their leads. In this post we’re going to explore how salespeople can use Colabo to prospect leads on Xing and automatically sync interactions into their CRM.

What’s Colabo

Colabo is a sales acceleration platform that sits on top of your CRM, and provides the features, functionality, and visibility your team needs to succeed. One of the most sought after features is Colabo’s Companion our prospecting tool. Colabo’s Companion lets you clip leads from any social platform, cross reference those leads in your CRM, send interactions at scale, and automatically syncs all social activity into your CRM.

Prospecting on Xing

Xing is quickly becoming the European and Australian equivalent of LinkedIn making it a hot item for prospecting companies outside of US networks. Xing is setup similar to LinkedIn, users have a profile where they keep up-to-date job information including company, role, and location. With Colabo, you can clip leads and automatically pull all of their profile information into your CRM. You can then send them personalized messages or even add them into a pre-defined campaign workflow.
