HelpCrunch couldn\u2019t miss out on the opportunity to attend one, too. April 20-22, 2021, our marketing team was keeping a close eye on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/collisionconf.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Collision<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 the biggest annual tech conference in North America run by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/websummit.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Web Summit<\/a>&nbsp;with the main scene in Toronto, Canada.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By tradition, the meetup brought together progressive innovators, ground-breaking startups, and world-known speakers. Among the topics on the table, there were technology, marketing, Covid-19, entertainment, academic, and environmental agendas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep you in the loop, we prepared a digest with reports that struck a chord with us the most and revolved around one concept:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/helpcrunch.com\/blog\/customer-service-orientation\/\" target=\"_blank\">customer centricity<\/a>. Well, the philosophy of HelpCrunch is \u201c<strong>Think customer. Give value. Be the best<\/strong>\u201d after all. Choosing the presentations was a tough choice, though, as each was a blast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key insights from Collision 2021<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. The benefits of using videos for your support and sales in the new reality<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>(by Tyler Lessard from Vidyard)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>How to jazz up your email sales and support pitches in a not-so-trivial way? Add a video clip to your message. This is what the VP of Marketing from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vidyard.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vidyard<\/a>&nbsp;Tyler Lessard explained at Collision. The HelpCrunch team couldn\u2019t be more blown away by this speech \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Videos turn out to be a handy tool when it comes to drawing people\u2019s attention. Especially in sales. Along with a professionally done presentation, there was also some impressive data, such as \u201c<em>response rates with a video are 26% higher on average<\/em>\u201c. This is some food for thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/helpcrunch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/vidyard-presentation-at-collision-1024x478.jpg\" alt=\"Presentation by Vidyard at Collision\" class=\"wp-image-8393\"\/><figcaption>Presentation by Vidyard at Collision<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIt\u2019s harder than ever for salespeople to stand out and earn attention in today\u2019s noisy digital world! Emails are being ignored, phone calls are going to voicemail, and prospects can smell a social media sales pitch a mile away\u201d \u2013&nbsp;<\/em>Tyler says. We\u2019re totally on the same page here.<em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The benefits of using personalized videos when doing a sales outreach might be clear. They serve as eye-catchers and are something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cPersonalized video messages offer an amazing new way to stand out from the crowd, to deliver your message in a more thoughtful way, and to enable your prospects to get to know you before they ever commit to a meeting. It\u2019s a proven way to boost&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/helpcrunch.com\/blog\/digital-customer-engagement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>engagement<\/em><\/a><em>, increase response rates, and build more personal relationships from the very start.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mean, how cool is that? If I got such an email, I would proceed with a conversation and, probably, the deal would be sealed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tyler also shared his thoughts about three best practices for improving your video sales pitches routine and rock it in the next normal:<br><br>1.&nbsp;<em>Be mindful of the good old acronym KISS: Keep It Short, Seller! Aim for 45-60 seconds and use that time to quickly introduce yourself, pique their interest by describing a challenge or opportunity that may be of interest, and close out with your call-to-action.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2.&nbsp;<em>Consider getting creative with how to use a webcam recording or a screen recording to hyper-personalize your message with something visual your prospect will recognize. Write their name on a small whiteboard, or bring up their LinkedIn profile or website on your screen! Use one of those visuals as your thumbnail image to make it irresistible for them to click and watch.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.&nbsp;<em>Use a purpose-built video selling tool to make this process simple and effective. Tools like Vidyard make it a snap to record a video and send it to a prospect via email \u2013 no editing or uploading required! It will even notify you when someone watches your video so you can strike while your brand is top of mind.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.

It\u2019s sold by data brokers and bought by brands to support their campaigns. This data is gathered and processed by someone other than yourself.

How to build a sales process around your product<\/strong><em>&nbsp;(by Kris Hartvigsen from DoolyHQ)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s changing in the world of sales? The founder of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dooly.ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DoolyHQ<\/a>&nbsp;Kris Hartvigsen delivered the presentation about product-led sales and their difference from regular sales. Here is a quick rundown to place you in the story.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the regular sales funnel \u201c<em>users are rarely engaged until post-purchase leading to adoption challenges and bad data<\/em>\u201c. Whereas the product-led sales process implies a certain level of \u201c<em>virality from users<\/em>\u201d and it leads a customer to a more meaningful experience from dealing with the brand. The way to achieve this is by getting new users from point A (signing for a product) to point B (enjoying the quality of your product).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The world has \u201c<em>entered a new end-user era, and it\u2019s here to stay<\/em>\u201c. According to Kris, the secret to selling more effectively is to \u201c<em>identify end-user pains and transform them to your business pains<\/em>\u201c. Such an approach will help you adjust the strategy on the fly and bring maximum to your customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Building meaningful relationships with your customers in the new era<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>(by Chris Meador from Wistia)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>Advertising is no Longer Enough<\/em>\u201d \u2013 the name of the presentation held by Chris Meador from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wistia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wistia<\/a>. In the world of exacting users, building long-term and real&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/helpcrunch.com\/blog\/customer-relations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">customer relations<\/a>&nbsp;might be quite a tough job. But everything is easier than you think.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Chris put it, \u201c<em>relationships now have to be built and maintained entirely virtually, through digital channels<\/em>\u201c. Nowadays, you have a window of opportunity to be active, attract new leads, and promote your product online via social media, YouTube, and Google Ads.

You should develop your own \u201c<em>social stance<\/em>\u201d today in order not to sit on the sidelines when it comes to the issues of consumers. Make sure you guide your company to identify these issues and truly commit to them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. The future of AI<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>(by Arm)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you ready for an actual jaw-dropper? Semiconductor technology company&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arm.com\/\">Arm<\/a>&nbsp;had an ultimate success at Collision. Young entrepreneurs (when I say \u201c<em>young<\/em>\u201c, I mean 13- and 17-year-old guys) and the company\u2019s ambassadors held the lecture dedicated to the future of AI and computing \ud83d\ude40&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As programmer Josh claimed,&nbsp;<em>\u201cAI is becoming more accessible; you can take a picture of someone and make them say something they didn\u2019t say. We need to pay more attention \u2026\u201d.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Samaira said,&nbsp;<em>\u201cour thinking can be inspired and influenced by the next generation, who will be living in an age where AI will be a pervasive technology\u201d.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI\u2019d really like to see more inclusive AI \u2013 not just more ethical, but also more equitable \u2013 especially given the inequities that have been revealed by the pandemic in the last year.\u201d \u2013&nbsp;<\/em>Emma declared. Trust me, the live chat burst with applause during this report.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8. The importance of building an engaged community<\/strong><em>&nbsp;(by Notion)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve been using&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.notion.so\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Notion<\/a>&nbsp;for ages now, so not tuning in for their report about creating a vibrant community was not an option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ivan Zhao, the CEO, was talking about lessons to follow. First, \u201c<em>it\u2019s OK to leave participation open-ended<\/em>\u201d meaning that there\u2019s no need to prescribe what your users should do while on your website or signing up for your product. Give them freedom of choice and just walk them along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, you shouldn\u2019t try \u201c<em>to own community<\/em>\u201c. That is, step back and let users help each other, building, therefore, \u201c<em>real bonds<\/em>\u201c. This way, you build a truly engaged community without selling your line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least is going to great lengths to shape a certain club online. For instance, there\u2019s the so-called \u201cNotion People\u201d community involving product champions. Do like they did, post on social media you\u2019re looking for the company\u2019s enthusiasts and people will do the rest. All in all, \u201c<em>community is about humans<\/em>\u201c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ready for Collision 2022?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These three days at the end of April were filled with creativity, inspiration, fresh experiences, and new connections.
