Financial and professional services firms rely heavily on their front-line teams to create impactful pitchbooks that win new business. To do so, teams must be able to easily source up-to-date slide decks, tombstones and bios throughout the document generation process.
Historically, this has been a challenge for teams in enterprise organizations. With hundreds of data points and assets to sift through and format, creating compelling documents can be a tedious, error-prone process.
As a matter of fact, employees struggling to locate and retrieve the information they need to produce effective documents is costing enterprise organizations up to $2.5 million per year.
This is without factoring in the time it takes for administrators to manage and share content.
So how can businesses streamline content management and distribution, making life easier for the front-line teams and administrators?
The answer: UpSlide x Pitchly.
How UpSlide and Pitchly Work Together
Pitchly’s Data Enablement Platform allows administrators to easily manage data-driven content like tombstones and bios.
Whenever content needs updating, they can issue all changes via a user-friendly, centralized data source and quickly distribute the updates to the entire organization.
Front-line teams can export these images from the central hub and add them to their website or PowerPoint materials.
So where do we come into the picture?
UpSlide, the leading document automation solution for Microsoft Office, enables teams to source, insert and format the latest, accurate tombstones and bios without leaving PowerPoint.
Front-line teams face zero disruptions to their workflow, saving up to seven hours each month on document generation.
