Actiance Demos Socialite With Salesforce Integration at FinovateFall 2012

Helps Financial Advisors Tie Social Media Conversations to Sales Cycle


BELMONT, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 12, 2012) - FINOVATEFALL 2012 -- Actiance (www.actiance.com), helping organizations benefit from new forms of communications and collaboration, will present Socialite Engage with Salesforce integrations at FinovateSpring 2012 conference. Sarah Carter, general manager of social business at Actiance, will illustrate how financial advisors can introduce social interaction into the sales cycle while ensuring compliance with various regulatory bodies, such as FINRA and the SEC.

Socialite is a content distribution platform that allows financial institutions to use social media tools and channels in a safe and compliant way, from the provisioning of appropriate content to the measurement of resulting effects from that content. The Salesforce integration enables financial agents and advisors to incorporate CRM data from Salesforce into Socialite Engage, which lets them monitor social media discussions among existing clients and prospects, and automatically link those conversations to Salesforce.

Social media activity plays an integral role for agents, advisors and institutions in the finance sector for driving real-time communication, content delivery and client and prospect engagement. It is imperative that the financial services industry be aware of the technology solutions that ensure granular control over access and content shared across social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, while delivering real business value in a low-risk environment.
