Business Situation

Research reveals that it takes 7 iterations of going back and forth to fix a single meeting! The time spent and efforts expended when converted in terms of productivity are a huge loss.

How can you increase meetings with your customers and prospects at B2B events by 30% or more?

Solution Approach

Compassites created a ‘meeting manager’ solution, which was intelligent and intuitive to provide a window for the co-coordinator to identify the participant and trigger response-based email appointments. This application would also manage through alerts and furthermore generate reports about the outcome of the meeting. The ideated concept was launched as a business reality named Jiffle. Jiffle is a patent pending platform that helps to connect people by scheduling meetings. Jiffle effectively manages the meetings through various modules as part of the package.

The 'PeopleConnect' application enabled individuals to schedule appointments with each other by selectively and securely sharing their online 'available' calendar. This application helps busy people connect without the back and forth of emails and phone tag saving time, increasing productivity, and minimizing missed meeting opportunities.

The 'EventConnect' application helps companies schedule and manage meetings between executives, prospects, customers and partners at B2B events. This simplifies scheduling meetings, optimizes precious time and maximizes the number of meetings at trade shows.
