Using Chatter allows employees in your organization to connect with co-workers, so they can work together to be more productive. It pushes updates on the accounts, contacts and projects that you care about most right to you, so you know what’s going on. And it keeps your conversations in one place, helping you and your team to stay organized.
Of course, to experience these benefits, you first need to get your team to adopt Chatter. If you’re struggling to do that, we suggest building a competition around it. Below are the 7 steps to creating a basic Chatter competition within Compete. (To find out how competition can drive Chatter adoption, read “From Zero to Chatter in 30 Days”.)
