A couple of weeks ago, we talked about adding your own contact fields to the contact panel. This allows you to add simple fields next to the ones we already provided for each contact (like ‘name’ and ‘email address’). Let’s make things a little less simple – but even more powerful – by creating Custom URLs. A Custom URL allows you to add an actual hyperlink to the contact panel.

Whatever it is that you want the Custom URL to do, it will do it right from within Casengo, allowing you to service your customers even faster and better.
