• Zvi Band proves that not everything bands-related has to do with music. This tech rockstar is the founder of the customer relationship management software (CRM), Relatable.
• Challenged by the complexity and disconnectedness of existing CRMs, Band said “hold my coffee” and created a solution that wouldn’t make users feel like they’re trying to solve a rubik’s cube.
• Relatable’s interface prompts users to log their activities with another firm’s contacts. Partying this Saturday with a new client? Band has got you covered.
• A key feature of Relatable is its “pipeline feature”, which might not be as fun as a water slide but is as exciting for real estate agents wanting to track their deals.
• Looking at the future, Band is more focused on refining his creation rather than vibing to money from investors. He wants Relatable to be the Bobby Fischer of CRMs.
Let’s Strike up the (Relatable) Band
When rhythm meets Real Estate
Pipeline Dreams and Latte-Drenched Innovations
Friends, let’s raise our cups of overpriced java to Zvi Band, innovator, entrepreneur, and evidently Relatable. In his quest to tame the wild, untamed beast of customer relationship management, he’s done more than just create a functioning software. He’s created a virtual sandbox where real estate agents can play nice with clients. A place where you can track your deals without having grids and charts giving you a major headache, more severe than that third margarita from Saturday night.
We’ve got to appreciate Band’s bold move to forego additional investors. It’s a refreshing flip of the bird to the ‘get-rich-quick’ culture so often prevalent in the startup scene. He’s aiming for the moon, refining the software until it’s smoother than Sinatra’s crooning. Relatable may not be solving world hunger or finding the cure for stupidity, but by golly, it’s making the lives of real estate agents a whole lot easier. Cheers to that!
