Using the CRM Marketplace for Community Discovery and Growth

Introducing the CRM Marketplace for Communities

Community builders can now leverage the CRM's integrated marketplace feature to discover, connect, and grow their communities more effectively. This built-in platform simplifies community management while expanding your reach to potential members actively searching for groups like yours.

Navigation and Interface Updates

The CRM's navigation has been redesigned to create a smoother experience from login through community switching. Members can now move between Communities and Courses more efficiently with a unified, responsive interface.

Key Navigation Improvements

• Unified Login Flow: All joined communities and courses appear in a single seamless view
• Bottom Navigation Bar: Quick one-tap switching between Courses and Communities
• Enhanced Visual Design: Improved spacing, typography, and icon clarity for better readability
• Simplified Group Switcher: Cleaner and faster navigation between joined spaces

Ensure you're using the latest app version to access these improvements.
