  • Enable Desktop Notifications to answer more callbacks (you're 4x more likely to book a meeting on a callback!). If you’re away from the Orum tab, callbacks will appear as a Desktop notification. Click to return to Orum and answer.

If on the Orum tab (and dialed into a session), you can accept the call in the browser.

  • To maximize your preparedness going into calls, install the Orum Chrome Extension (embedded LinkedIn profiles)

  • Start each day in the Salesfloor (demo video) to listen/learn and celebrate with your team.

  • To maximize your connect rates, use Boost Connect and rotate between your Fallback Numbers throughout the day (add a few from each time zone). Boost Connect:

    • Increases Connect Rates by 21% on average.

    • Uses your CRM data to intelligently & automaticall choose the best Area Code to Call From, based on each prospect's City, State, Area Code, etc.

    • Pulls from a pool of 10,000+ numbers that Orum owns

    • Automatically limits phone number usage to circumvent Spam

    • Rotates numbers if the prospect is called multiple times in a day

  • When Parallel dialing, speak quickly after the beep to maximize your conversations!

Integration-Specific Tips

Outreach:

HubSpot:

  • If calling down Contact Lists, to prevent accidental follow-up calls after conversations, use Active Lists (video walkthrough, step by step guide) and filter by fields like Contact Owner, Lead Status, etc. After conversations, reps can manually update Lead Status OR you can automatically update Lead Status by using a HubSpot Workflow (Professional+ package required). When "Lead Status" no longer matches your Contact List filter criteria (i.e. it changes from to from "New" to "In Progress", "Disqualified", etc.), the contact will fall off.

  • If calling down Sequences, coach reps to manually unenroll Contacts from Sequence (directly in HubSpot) after each conversation. Or you can create an automation to Remove prospect from Sequence (Enterprise package required)

  • If calling down Sequences, customize each the Task Title for each Sequence call step (ex: "SEQUENCE NAME - SEQUENCE STEP"). Task Title displays in Orum to help the team sort/filter by Sequence, and better prepare for conversations [step by step guide]

Salesforce:

  • Ensure you are using a supported report type

  • Filter your reports by a field like "Lead Status", and ensure the reps are updating it after speaking with prospects (i.e. to "Responded") so that they fall off the report automatically. You can also automate this by creating a flow to update Lead Status when you log a call in Orum as "Meeting Booked", etc
