It has over 80 integrations for services like Google Drive, Trello, and GitHub, and now you can use these integrations to become a more productive person at work. 

Slack is used for chatting, searching, user groups, and third party integrations so it’s becoming an easy way to manage your calendar, communicate quickly through social media, and so much more. Get Slack and your work day will become simply, efficient, and way more fun. 

<h2>What can Slack do for me?</h2>

Slack offers chat options to send instant messages to individuals, private groups, and public channels while the search feature lets you easily find chats, messages and the history of your channels to be able to access. Integrating with other services that businesses are using on a regular basis is becoming one of the most important features of the app because teams can more easily communicate. 

You can improve your workflow by using WordPress and Slack together because the integration posts WordPress notifications to your Slack channels for improving team collaboration. With a remote team or multi-author site, communication just improved immensely making the work way easier to accomplish. 

<h2>Which productivity interactions should I use on Slack?</h2>

Start with the Google Calendar + Slack integration. Since your business already uses calendar events on Slack, you can automate your workflow by bringing your Slack and Google Calendar together. Post an event to your calendar in Slack or post project deadline reminders on Google Calendar and they will be integrated together. 

Then, check out how your social media accounts just simplified. When you use Twitter to respond to clients, Slack can now post tweets at you or about you into a Slack channel. Now you can finally track every mention and communicate with your staff on how you should respond. The Twitter + Slack integration is a win.
