Workbounce’s ‘Google meets Slack’ product for sales teams raises $2.7M from Index Ventures, 9-Mar-2022:
Workbounce workbounce.com sales teams, meet your co-pilot! Looking for information, chasing prospects, & doing admin work is slowing your deals down. Try a better way. Close those browser tabs! We integrate with your most used platforms (Salesforce coming soon). Every team struggles with knowledge silos! Knowledge shouldn’t have to be hard-won & reps shouldn’t have to lose business to get better. Content & answers could be anywhere… Loom, Gong, Marketo, DocuSign, Dropbox, GDrive, Slack—answers live everywhere, incl. inside people’s heads. So much valuable information is available but hidden—unless you know exactly what to look for & where to find it, or exactly who to ask. To solve this, you bring in a content management system as a single source of truth which inevitably becomes an outdated silo & creates a maintenance burden. Workbounce is designed to be an insightful co-pilot for all customer-facing teams. We connect the siloed tools you use every day—like Google Drive, Notion, & Slack—with a layer of intelligent search & analytics. Spend less time digging through multiple platforms looking for answers, & more time building deal-winning relationships with your customers. Workbounce Ltd, Covent Garden, London, UK

DeckLinks launched on Product Hunt on 18-Mar-2022:
DeckLinks DeckLinks.com @deck_links B2B SaaS created to make sales more conversational. Helps sales teams securely share sales decks & instantly access engagement analytics to close more deals faster. BriefBid briefbid.com @briefbid launched DeckLinks, a platform that helps sales teams share interactive sales decks & access instant analytics on buyer engagement; positioning DeckLinks as Google Analytics for sales decks. It offers analytics for deck sharing & is a new stand-alone product that was inspired by key-learnings from the BriefBid’s B2B 
marketplace, which serves media buyers & sellers through RFP management & matchmaking. They saw sell-side users often sharing one-directional, static sales decks that failed to garner responses / feedback. Through an effort to understand how their buy-side users engage with sales material in the marketplace, the company developed tools to track interactions with their own sales decks to their users. “In our effort to solve a problem in the media RFP space, we discovered a problem in the sales space. When we thought we were solving a problem for our users, we ended up solving a problem for salespeople in general. Sometimes great products come out of internal tools that can be applied externally […].” The DeckLinks platform is capable of showing sales reps how buyers specifically interact with sales materials, even when no direct response is provided. Allows sales teams to start more conversations with relevant follow-ups, access actionable insights to improve their efforts, & close more deals by personalizing client experiences. Goes beyond traditional document sharing platforms by creating a custom, fully-trackable microsite that houses each deck. Features include company profiles, industry-specific modules, & other widgets. TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA
