We notice the general trend of simplifying content and delivering marketing messages to consumers. Landing page designers (landing pages) are a prime example. Tilda, LPGenerator, PlatformaLP - tools that do not require serious skills in web development. If you do not require a wow design, the site can be made in a few hours. This will be a full-fledged web page. There will be forms on it, you can sell something with it.
Bitrix released its designer landing pages in October 2017. In the first six months, users created hundreds of thousands of pages. At the presentation in October 2018, ~ 100 thousand pages of shared access were announced.
The next stage is an army of marketers, promoting the sites of Bitrix24 in various channels from all sites. This stage is in full swing. The volume of traffic will only grow.
The next wave - the heroes-analysts who rake up the traffic debris, sift valuable ore, indicate the direction of development.
What stage are you now? When will you go to the next?

Say “online store” - what is remembered? Beautiful site for retail sales.
Shopping cart, large photos, “selling card product”, “place an order” and so on.
Thousands of articles have been written about such stores, templates of such stores can be downloaded on the Web or installed along with the content management system.
The owners of such stores integrate them with trading platforms (Google Merchant Center and others), working to increase conversion. The main question is “how to attract? how to sell?
But the online store may be different. The online store can be focused on wholesalers, on regular customers, on interaction with branches and distribution networks.

Building a company can be daunting. Setting up an account system, a task tracker for projects, keeping tabs on document flow and of course, setting up a Customer Relationship Management System (CRM). How can I, a company executive, managing a 200+ plus staff ensure that there’s smooth communication and workflow in my company, and with my clients. How can I organize all incoming calls into a controlled information flow and ensure the integrity of this data?
This is where integrating Bitrix24 with Telephony systems comes in.

When a client comes to us who has already independently placed an advertisement on Facebook, as a rule, he already has a page, an advertising office and a pixel (that is, the code that needs to be placed on the site to collect the audience and track events). For our convenience, we make ourselves administrative access to customer data and work through the Business Manager. But if a client created a pixel from a personal page, and not from an organization’s page, then access to it is impossible.

Why do you need GeoIP
Your task is to show different phones / prices / availability of goods depending on the user's city? Or maybe you want to simplify the user ordering? - These tasks rest on the automatic determination of the country / city by IP-address.
Is it difficult to locate a user by IP address? Probably not difficult. But to do it qualitatively - the task is not for the faint of heart. There are several reasons for this:
-
Accuracy is extremely low and varies depending on the base of IP-addresses.
-
IP addresses are constantly changing their location, and site owners forget to update their databases.
-
Developers have a temptation to go along the curve track and start accessing online services.
-
Developers too lazy to do caching
-
The name of the city, which returns the geo-base, it is difficult to associate with the site location and business logic.
-
In Bitrix there is no ready-made component to display / change the city
The difference in labor intensity between “and so come down” and “reliable solution” is 20-40 man-hours. We stuffed cones for a long time, and when we’re tired of it, we put together all our developments in one cool module for Bitrix.

The main goal of any online store is the sale of goods or services. One of the main tools for making sales through the online store is, of course, a shopping cart. In the article we will try to figure out why this tool is often not an assistant, but, on the contrary, a hindrance in the “went to the site — saw — acquired” algorithm.
For those who want to find a panacea for the lack of sales through the online store in this article, we have some advice - think in a comprehensive way, do not look for the source of problems in only one place. We analyzed the baskets in online stores and reviewed the errors encountered.
I can’t say that every online store has a snowflake personality, but there are still several large groups for which some tips will ultimately bring profit, while others are not relevant. So read, taking into account the profile of your activity.
When choosing the appearance of a product card, placing buttons, developing an order algorithm, you must take into account the characteristics, tastes, demographic and other indicators of a potential buyer.

Bitrix24 CRM is popular with small business CRM having great opportunities, even for free. API Bitrix24 allows to integrate it easily with other systems even in cloud version (we wrote about successful integration Bitrix24 CRM with Twilio SMS).

In this article we will show how to set interaction between Zapier and Bitrix24 CRM.Anatoly Erofeev
Bitrix24 module Workflows is a versatile tool for business processes automation. Via the module you can gather data, make calculations and save the result.
Not every automation workflow session is efficient. For example, if an employee has to call several clients sequentially to ask questions and write down the answers to be automatically processed.
The Workflows module doesn’t have integration with Bitrix24 telephony. Time is valuable. That is why we minimized the time for switching between Bitrix24 tasks, telephony, contact card and questionnaire.
We have trained Bitrix24 to manage phone calling via the Workflows.

Businesses produce a lot of documents: mails, contracts, acts, bills, invoices, reconciliation acts, etc. This paper work may be enjoyable for young businessmen, because it gives a feeling that the company is growing. But for a big company, it could be a nightmare!
If a company has more than 10 employees, then the number of people who are responsible for approving and signing documents grows - project managers, sales personnel, lawyers and bookkeepers. They all participate in the approval workflow, as well as clients, suppliers and contractors. These approvers leave comments, suggest adjustments to be made on the documents and wait for a swift response.
You just can’t waste your time running around, looking for versions of documents, sending mails with the edited contracts and putting every approval party in "CC".
Paper work and sending e-mails is time-wasting and leads to chaos.
The solution we would recommend is having an Electronic Document Management System with Document approval capabilities.

It happens that business growth generates problems. It becomes difficult to follow every current process, deal and request. It is almost impossible to analyze the database of contacts by hand.
Employees control is complicated due to the lack of bounds between the client base and documents. Sometimes there is no actual client base.
Our clients often come to INTERVOLGARU with similar problems.
