Looking forward to your experiences and recommendations!

From what I’ve seen others in the community recommend, there are a few strategies that work well for managing a mobile workforce with Intercom:

  • Intercom mobile app – lets agents respond, assign, and track conversations anywhere.

  • Routing rules – to make sure conversations are fairly distributed despite time zones.

  • Tags & macros – help keep responses fast and consistent while still personalized.

  • Integrations – tools like Trello or Asana can help with task tracking outside of Intercom.

  • Time zone management – using saved replies to clarify availability and setting automated messages to manage expectations.

  • Connectivity backups – agents can draft replies offline and send them once they’re reconnected to avoid losing work.

These seem to be common best practices for keeping mobile teams productive and aligned while using Intercom.
