The tutorial videos on this page will help you master the Skrol web app faster than exploring it on your own. The app has many layers of depth designed specifically for executive assistants who work under constant pressure and expect a great deal of versatility from their office productivity tools. These videos will also teach you how to accomplish more in less time and with less effort.
A large display with a regular keyboard and mouse or trackpad is the most efficient setup for working with large contact lists from multiple sources because it makes navigation, search, organization, and updates faster and easier. This video provides a detailed overview of the Skrol design (06:31).
Skrol is optimized for executive assistants working with large contact lists and focused on standardizing contact information. Seeing all contacts in a single list, with all available fields visible at once, makes that work faster and easier because gaps stand out immediately. Instead of opening, editing, and closing each contact record one by one, you can review and update information the way you would in a spreadsheet (08:26).
Skrol helps executive assistants find available time for events days, weeks, or months in advance on a rolling schedule in seconds because open time slots stand out immediately on a chart among color-coded blocks of reserved time. Entering the event itself, whether for one person or a group of any size, takes only seconds because unlimited smart templates can prefill the settings and options specific to each event type. This function alone can make Skrol one of your most valuable everyday tools (08:17).
Adding new contacts is one of the most tedious and time-consuming parts of contact management for executive assistants. This tutorial shows how to do it with little or no typing, right from your computer. It is especially useful for adding or updating an executive's personal contacts on an iPhone or Android without touching the device (14:49).
If you use Gmail to prescreen an executive's emails, the Skrol companion extension helps you evaluate new senders right from the message. You can look them up on the web, review their email history, search for their photos, and open websites associated with their email address without leaving the inbox. The Sender sidebar on the right side of the inbox can also display the sender's photo, note, phone numbers, websites, and social links, giving you more context for deciding what to do next (09:41).
Mainstream email apps do not support built-in email templates or personalized mail merge for groups. Skrol lets executive assistants create and organize any number of reusable email templates by topic and send them directly from the email account of their choice. This avoids the need to set up a separate email marketing platform or force internal communications into a CRM built mainly for client-related interactions. Common uses include corporate announcements, media outreach, event invitations, emergency communications, and messages to board members, department heads, or other internal groups (06:11).
Skrol search is optimized for executive assistants who need to find obscure contact information without delay while the executive is on the phone, in a conference call, or in a meeting. That becomes difficult when thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands, of contacts are split across multiple apps, hidden behind separate logins, or available only on a smartphone. Skrol solves that problem by showing all available contacts in a single list with all available data fields visible at once, so the list can be searched, queried, and sorted instantly in whatever way the moment requires. This tutorial shows how it works (06:29).
Executives think in groups or categories: board members, key investors, top clients, department heads, banks, attorneys, vendors, and so on. That is who they want to see when they need to reach someone, not a list of thousands of unrelated names in alphabetical order. The idea sounds simple, but it is difficult to implement well in consumer contact apps or sales support systems. Skrol, by contrast, builds most groups in seconds, and they are just as fast to open when needed. Please watch the video below to see why well-designed groups turn a contact manager into a productivity rocket ship (07:22).
We went out of our way to design a printing tool for executive assistants who routinely need to print hundreds of shipping labels, envelopes, postal forms, and visitor tags for large events. It is a great convenience and time-saver for anyone sending packages or organizing meetings, conferences, and similar in-person events. This video shows how it works (06:24).
The Skrol/SE ordering page will be published on this site when sales and onboarding begin. To evaluate the app before launch, please schedule a live demonstration below.
