The Beamer jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Calling back the calls you missed
Today
Missed calls stack up while you are serving. Later you scroll Beamer, try to match numbers to names and guess who mattered most.
With Flann
“Who called while I was out and didn't leave a message?”
Matching each missed call in Beamer to a known customer where it can, Flann gives you a list with a suggestion of who to ring first. Prefer a text?
What you stop doing: Guessing which unknown number mattered most is no longer necessary.
Tidying up solved conversations
Today
Solved tickets stay open in Beamer because nobody remembers to close them, so the queue looks busier than it is and real problems hide inside it.
With Flann
“Close anything that's been sorted and gone quiet this week”
Looking through Beamer for conversations where the issue was answered and nobody has written since, Flann lists them for you to check. Untick any that are still live.
What you stop doing: Clearing the queue by hand at the end of the week is off your list.
