Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier hilft uns, weit über 50% mehr Deals abzuschließen, als wir es ohne Zapier tun würden. Es ist ein Schlüsselelement unserer Gesamtstrategie und somit auch unseres Verkaufsarguments.
