Volume and capacity are always top of mind for sales, support and marketing teams. At Intercom, we’re helping all three teams do more with their time to increase their performance.
For sales and support, the volume of prospects and customers they handle, and their capacity to scale up that volume, is the reason they are so focused on efficiency and output. The highest performing sales and support teams are the ones who are laser focused on processes that enable them to maximize those numbers.
Marketing teams, on the other hand, focus on volume and capacity from a different angle – what sort of volume of leads and opportunities can they create and what sort of activities can they perform with the capacity they have? Marketing teams, therefore, need to focus on the highest impact activities.
For all three of these teams, Intercom is focused on helping them do more with their time through intelligent automation. In the past month, we have unveiled our new Custom Bots feature, an ever-increasing library of apps and new integrations to help these teams boost their performance, automate workflows, increase conversions, focus their time and get more done. Here are 8 new features that will help you grow your business.
Qualify leads automatically, book more meetings and hit your number with the perfect bot for your business. See what Custom Bots can can do for you:

Now teammates in the Inbox and customers using the Messenger can download a text file transcript of their conversation.
Teammates can now easily share valuable customer conversations about feature requests or bugs with colleagues who don’t use Intercom. Customers now have a more flexible way to save information like tracking codes or reference numbers for use later on.
You now have more flexibility than ever before to trigger actions, filter conversations, and assign teammates using Intercom’s webhooks and APIs. This means your team can automate more workflows and efficiently handle sales and support conversations at scale.
With the updates, you can:
Trigger actions or filter conversations based on conversation tags with our new Conversation Tagged Webhook
Check if teammates are available for a conversation – or set teammates to away and reaasign their conversations – with our updated Admins API
Route and re-route conversations by running assignment rules at any point in a conversation with our new Run Assignment Rules API
