Re: [Coworking] Managing email in a coworking environment

[Andy Soell]

Hi Jacob!

Integrations are definitely on the roadmap, most likely first to come via 
simple webhooks and possibly Zapier / IFTTT integration. We have a definite 
list of features we want to add, but a large part of the prioritization process 
will likely come from feedback we get from folks using it.

This looks very interesting Andy!  How easy would it be to integrate with
Nadine ?  Are you open to integrations like this?

[Coworking] Managing email in a coworking environment

[Andy Soell]

Hi all! Just wanted to drop a quick note about a project that I've been 
working on that I think some people here might be interested in—

I've been helping operate The Salt Mines  coworking 
community in Columbus, Ohio for the past several years, and in the time 
since we opened our doors things have grown to the point where it's more 
than a single person can manage. Our community has done an awesome job of 
stepping up and helping out with tasks like giving tours, doing the dishes 
(most of the time), and making sure new members feel welcome, but one area 
that we've struggled with is making the process of addressing incoming 
emails a collaborative effort.

To that end, we've been slowly building a new product to help out with this 
sort of thing. It's called *Saffron *, 
and it's something I definitely would have wanted to know about when we 
first started out. It's essentially a shared inbox application that you can 
open up to some of your trusted community members, where you can discuss 
and assign out incoming email before hitting the "reply" button. There are 
already a few other tools out there like this—and some of them are actually 
really great—but what makes Saffron different is that we're trying to 
structure the pricing around the *volume of email handled*, and *not on the 
number of users* in the system. This way you can bring in your whole 
community to help field questions about how you do coworking, schedule 
tours, and generally let your members' enthusiasm shine through.

We're just now rolling it out to a few groups who are interested in helping 
us refine how things work, and I wanted to see if this sounded interesting 
to any of my coworking brothers and sisters. You can find out more about it 
at https://saffron.email/for-coworking or just let me know if you'd like a 
personal tour and I'd be happy to show it off in a screen sharing session.

Thanks all!

Andy Soell // The Salt Mines
