247Toolset: What Is It?


In a sentence, 247Toolset is an online platform that enables you to dive deeper into the people in your network - to help you discover more of their talents, connect with them more often, and engage them in the ways that best ensure their enthusiastic participation.

A wonderfully versatile system, 247Toolset can be configured to better coordinate volunteers, scout prospects for your business, improve your company's recruitment and retention, or simply enhance the way in which your organization tracks myriad contacts and associations.

Gather

It takes less than 15 minutes for an individual to create a detailed profile. Once you've reviewed and accepted their information, they're available for you to discover them more fully.

Discover

247Toolset offers three methods for search:

  • Geolocational filtering
  • Point-and-click search by attribute
  • Free-form text search on personal comments/tags

Geolocational filtering lets you search within a radius of a given city. This powerful tool alows you to find people within an area and or a region, ensuring that you won't miss those matches just a few miles away in a nearby city.

When you license a 247Toolset portal, you specify the categories and attributes you want to use for search. 247Toolset quickly provides a list of matching individuals based on your selected categories and attributes, and you can drill into those results as narrowly as necessary - as you see below.

There are two views for search results. The first is Descriptive (shown above), which lets you see the description given in the individual's profile. The second is Comparative (shown below), which sets each of your matched results side-by-side for a dynamic attribute-to-attribute comparison.

Creating a chart like this for everyone in your network might take hours. 247Toolset allows you to do this in just seconds - for any search you create.

Having these two views available is just one of several features that makes 247Toolset a compelling platform for the needs of your organization.

Connect

Finding people is certainly fun and powerful with 247Toolset, but connecting with them is what it's all about. You'll find that 247Toolset offers a thoughtful suite of tools for connection to help you gather the best people for any task before you.

The first question to ask is: is this just a tool for us, or for our associates as well? Choosing to allow others to search your network might amplify your organization's opportunities. 247Toolset comes with the option to open up your network to external and trusted partners, and if you choose that option, you can either display the names of the individuals in your network, or you can use the Anonymizing feature, which will hide the real names of those who are searchable. This means of protecting the privacy of your network is powerful and increases trust in your organization.

Once you find the right people, 247Toolset makes it easy to reach out to them by allowing you to send a request by email that outlines the opportunity you present.

Each recipient can choose to either get involved, or pass on it. If they choose to get involved, that's where the magic starts.

Engage

When a person agrees to engage, wouldn't it be great to learn how the role that they played and the dates and times of their engagement? While you don't have to use this feature of 247Toolset to capture this information, it's there and what you can learn from it might help you better craft and target opportunities in the future to increase participation even more.

Who did what when, and for how long? What did they think about it? Information like that could be pretty potent, and 247Toolset makes gathering and reporting this information simple for everyone.

Demos are Very Inexpensive

In fact, they're free! Give us 30 minutes of your time, and we'll walk you through 247Toolset's robust feature set to help you vision how your organization can maximize its network to its greatest potential. The sky's the limit - we promise.
