Sales CRM software

Your customers shouldn't live in your salesperson's phone.

Give every salesperson a list of who to follow up today, and see the same pipeline yourself, with every note and deal on the customer's record.

When someone leaves

When a salesperson leaves, their customers leave in their phone

Your best salesperson keeps 200 customers in her WhatsApp and a notebook. She's on leave, and nobody knows what Marina Logistics was quoted. She resigns, and the history goes with her. In a shared pipeline, every note, deal and follow-up sits on the customer's record, and the record stays with you.

01Today's list

See who each salesperson owes a call today.

You want to know who's behind before the sales meeting. Each salesperson opens Next activity due and sees who they owe a call today, with the reason on each card. You see the same pipeline, so a missed follow-up is a name on a list, not a surprise at month end.

  • Next activity due, overdue first
  • Stale cards, after 14 days in one stage
  • No next step, for live customers with no date

02A new enquiry

Share out new customers in turn, and skip whoever's away.

Two salespeople are out on visits when a new enquiry comes in. Set new cards to go to each person in turn, or to whoever has the fewest open, and anyone marked Away is passed over. Every card shows who has it, so nobody calls the same customer twice.

  • Take turns, or fewest open
  • Away is passed over
  • One owner on every card

03Before a stage move

Get the numbers into the pipeline as you go.

You want the week's quotes in one place, not in six heads. A stage can ask for the fields you need before a card moves in, like a Quote amount field before Proposal sent. Missing required fields lists the cards that skipped it, and a dashboard built from a template adds up the rest.

  • Up to 10 required fields per stage
  • Missing required fields, a view of its own
  • A dashboard from a template adds up the week

Stages

Start with stages your team already says out loud.

Pick General sales when you start, and the board opens with New lead, Contacted, Qualified, Proposal sent, Won and Lost, and you can rename any of them. Each pipeline is shared on its own, so a second team can have stages of its own.
