We’re excited to introduce new features and improvements in Membrain to enhance your productivity. 

From greater control over dashboard exports to new features like support for negative quantities and more flexible playbook conditions, these updates are designed to streamline your workflow. Coaches will also appreciate easier navigation in Elevate, making it simpler to manage and coach teams. Read on to learn more about these updates.

Dashboard Permissions Exports

You now have more control over who can export dashboards as PDFs or extract data into Excel for deeper analysis outside Membrain.

"Products" Now Support Negative Quantities

Many of our customers use products in Sales projects, and we have had requests to support negative quantities for various scenarios. Membrain now supports this feature.

Process Conditions for Playbooks and Rules Now Support "None of" on Multi-Select Fields

If you are managing multiple industries but only want specific playbook steps or rules for a few, you used to have to manually select all the ones you didn’t want. Now, you can simply pick the ones you do want and set the condition to "none of," making this much easier to manage.

Easier Navigation in Elevate for Coaches

For those with complex coaching setups in Elevate, it is now simpler to find and coach specific teams and individuals. You can quickly access the "teams you coach" and "individuals you coach" for more efficient coaching sessions.

Zapier is a fantastic tool for creating efficiencies by automating simple tasks between the hundreds of software platforms out there.  

With this update, we are unlocking even more powerful capabilities to supercharge your processes. Now, you can create and react to Account Growth projects and Tickets, and go beyond simple task creation with our new update functionality.

In the System Setup for the Zapier integration there is now a link to the new version at the very top of the page. You can also use the new search/find tools in Zapier to locate exactly what you need in Membrain. Another exciting addition is the ability to create uncompleted tasks with deadlines directly from Zapier, even if you don’t have all the contact or company details upfront—perfect if the contact already exists in Membrain.

• Trigger Account Growth projects and assign them to the right resource, all from outside Membrain.
• Create rich-text notes from AI transcription tools like Fathom, Zoom, or Teams.
• Update a sales project automatically when your bidding team, working in another tool, takes action.
  
  

The creative possibilities here are almost endless, and we can’t wait to see how our customers leverage these new capabilities. For more information, visit our Help Center, contact us via in-product Chat, or email us at support@membrain.com.

If you're part of a B2B revenue team focused on sales enablement, you will know how crucial content is.  

If you're part of a B2B revenue team focused on sales enablement, you will know how crucial content is. With this latest Membrain update, we are introducing Content Rooms—a whole new way to organize and recommend content more effectively.

Content Rooms let you create dedicated spaces within Membrain for thematically connected content. These rooms can hold all types of content—files, links, videos, and content cards. You can mix and match enablement resources and collateral content, making it easy for your team to find everything they need in one place.

• Gather training materials around your specific methodology in one spot.
• Collect all the lead magnets or conversion offers your marketing team has live on your website, in ads, etc., and use this room to outline how your sales team should respond to and follow up with those leads.
• Store customer testimonials, case studies, and similar content in a room so the whole team knows exactly where to find them.

 

In the most recent update of Membrain, we are introducing date calculation fields. This new type of custom field functions similarly to the existing calculation field, with the main difference being that the output is a date instead of a number.

While the traditional calculation field can output numbers, including options for decimals and percentages, it cannot produce a date. The new date calculation field provides all the functionalities of date fields in Membrain, allowing for the creation of graphs, list views grouped by date, date-based rules, automation possibilities, and more.

This feature is useful in scenarios such as managing delivery times or tracking delays between contract terms.

💡 This enhancement offers flexibility in scenarios such as:

• If you have a standard 30-day delivery time post-closing a deal, you can use the closing date plus 30 days to always have an accurate delivery date field.
• For varying delivery options, you can link a date field, like the project start date, to a scorecard with numerical options representing different delivery speeds. The number output from the scorecard can then be added to the project start date.

A professional email signature is crucial for a B2B selling organization. 

With the preview release of centralized email signatures in Membrain, you can ensure consistency across your team. Additionally, you can add extra email signature footers for specific teams or groups, promoting sales campaigns, events, or other highlights.

Multiple footers can be set, and the first matching user will display the relevant footer, ensuring your messaging is on point and centrally controlled. Visit our Help Center article to learn more about using this feature.

Other smaller updates

 

Improved user experience around document uploads

The latest Membrain update also enhances the user experience for uploading documents and files. We've removed unnecessary dialogs, making the overall process smoother. You can now drag and drop files into process steps or the document box in a project, and click to preview files without additional dialogs, simplifying document management.

Office365 updates for Tickets

For those using Microsoft365 (or Office365), recent changes on the Microsoft side, such as the disabling of SMTP, have caused some issues. We have now added support for OAuth authentication for Membrain tickets, allowing you to work seamlessly without enabling SMTP in your Office environment.

Improved Performance Score settings in Membrain Elevate

The latest Membrain update includes new settings for the performance score in Elevate, providing better control. Previously, extremely high numbers, like 700% of a target, could skew averages and produce misleading results. Now, you can set caps in the performance score settings to prevent this from happening.

Here's an example of the performance score being set to 250%.

The preview dialogs for companies, contacts, and stakeholders have received a significant update in the latest version of Membrain.

This enhancement allows you to collapse and expand key pieces of information, streamlining your workflow. These changes aim to make interaction faster and more efficient, bringing you to the necessary information or action quickly.

💡 This can be used in scenarios such as:

• For a prospecting-centric sales role, having contact details readily available on the screen is extremely helpful.
• For backend roles or CRM admin operations, placing key information in the information tab provides easy access by hovering over any contact or company in Membrain.

Maintaining clean and reliable data is crucial in any CRM endeavor. However, ensuring the accuracy of company data can be challenging. Inevitably you'll come across duplicate records and other data quality issues. 

To simplify this process, we've updated the company merge dialogue. This new feature guides you through a straightforward flow where you can compare data from two companies.

Once you've selected the companies to merge, you have complete control over which information to retain in the merged company. You can select specific data points from each company, or even combine information where applicable.

This enhanced dialogue provides a clear overview, making CRM management more streamlined and user-friendly.

💡 This can be useful for scenarios such as:

• Completing Missing Information: Merge two companies to consolidate key fields that are missing in one.
• Aggregating Historical Data: Combine histories from two companies to ensure comprehensive records.

Tracking revenue is naturally crucial for any organization engaged in B2B sales and revenue generation, it's the lifeblood of all companies. Many Membrain customers operate across multiple currencies in various countries and regions, making effective currency exchange rate management essential. 

We've introduced the capability to retroactively adjust historical currency exchange rates. Admins can now navigate to the system setup and currency settings to modify exchange rates for past periods. The interface itself is quite straightforward. You can create a new exchange rate value where you simply select the date and the exchange rate. All adjustments are made in relation to the system currency. 

💡 This enhancement offers flexibility in scenarios such as:

• Quarterly reviews of currency exchange rates to ensure accuracy at specific times.
• Correction of currency exchange rate errors identified after the fact.

Improved List Column Picker

At Membrain, we value visual views, but sometimes a list view is more efficient. To enhance this, we have added a new interface element that makes selecting the right columns in your list views cleaner and more intuitive. By clicking on the cogwheel in any list view in Membrain, you'll notice several improvements.

For currency fields, the main currency will be the default, but you can expand to select other currencies used within your organization. You can also search for a specific currency to access all related fields easily.

Additionally, fields associated with stakeholders in your prospect sales, products, account growth, and projects are now available in a collapsed form. This allows you to quickly access and expand details like names, titles, emails, and phone numbers. These improvements streamline data management, making it easier to coach effectively and improve your strategy and execution.

Change between count & value in Win/Loss Win Rate

In B2B Sales, understanding the difference between winning a certain number of deals and the associated revenue can significantly impact your ability to identify where you are the most competitive and have a huge impact on the growth of a company.

Winning 2 out of 10 deals means something different if the two deals you won were really small and you consistently struggle on larger opportunities. If you have good win rates but lose out on larger deals, it can massively affect your ability to forecast and set accurate probabilities.

Now, in the Win/Loss view, you can switch between the number of won sales projects and the value of those projects as the win rate indicator. This capability helps identify issues, such as challenges with closing larger deals, and allows for better revenue targeting and forecasting for your sales and revenue teams. This improvement enhances your ability to coach effectively and refine your sales strategy.

Easily manage your content with batch changing in the Content Hub

The Content Hub is a great place to store internal and external information that your sales and other revenue teams utilize daily. However, managing hundreds of content pieces can be challenging. To make this easier, we have added the ability to batch change multiple pieces of content in new ways.

By selecting multiple content pieces from the Content Hub or the sales content list found on the system setup page, you can update certain properties in bulk. This ensures that your content is correctly connected, relevant, and helpful, appearing in recommendations at the right time.

As a result, everyone has access to the right information when they need it, improving sales effectiveness and enabling your team to execute your sales process seamlessly.
