CRM & lead follow-up
Give every lead a next step. Give your team one place to find it.
Why leads go cold between the call and the quote.
Leads arrive from several places. Notes live on phones. Estimates sit in inboxes. A CRM helps only when it reflects what your team does and when somebody owns the follow-up.
We define a short, understandable pipeline and the information required at each stage. Then we connect intake, create useful views, and add reminders where work tends to stall. We keep fields purposeful so maintaining the system does not become another full-time task.
WHAT A PROJECT CAN INCLUDE
A practical sales pipeline
Stages that match your process, with clear ownership and a visible next action.
Consistent customer records
Useful contact and project details collected once and available where they are needed.
Follow-up visibility
Reminders and views that show who is waiting, what is missing, and what needs attention.
What this can look like.
A quote request becomes a record with a responsible team member. The estimate date, customer questions, and agreed follow-up are visible together. The system highlights a stalled opportunity instead of relying on memory.
Useful for businesses losing track between the first inquiry, estimate, and decision. We scope integrations around the tools and communication permissions you already have.
What it costs.
$1,200 to $5,000
Setting up and connecting what you have, or building the follow-up layer around it. Ongoing management is separate if you want it.
Published so you can decide whether to call, not as a quote. Every project is priced after a conversation about the actual work, and these ranges are reviewed as costs change. If your project sits outside them I will say so early rather than late.
What the first weeks look like.
- 01
Week one, where leads actually come from. Usually more places than anyone expects. The phone, the form, a text to a personal mobile, a referral mentioned in passing. Anything not captured cannot be followed up.
- 02
Week two, one record per customer. The same person arriving by three routes should not become three records. This is the least exciting and most valuable part.
- 03
Weeks three and four, the follow-up rhythm. What happens on day one, day three, day ten. Written down and running, rather than depending on whoever has a free afternoon.
What this is built with.
- The CRM you already pay for, audited before anything is replaced
- Your phone, email and form intake connected into one record
- Simple scheduled follow-up rather than a marketing automation platform you will never configure
Named so you can check the running costs yourself. Anything with a subscription is bought in your name, on your card, so the tools stay yours whatever happens between us.
What usually goes wrong.
The CRM becomes a place data goes to die
If nobody gets anything out of it, nobody puts anything into it. Whatever the team gets back has to be worth the typing.
Follow-up feels like spam
A cadence that ignores whether the customer already replied is worse than no cadence. Anything automated stops the moment a human responds.
It only works when one person is in the office
A process held together by one person's memory is not a process.
What I will not do.
- Buying contact lists or sending to people who never asked.
- Automating a message that pretends to be personally written when it is not.
- Migrating you off a CRM that is working fine.
CRM and follow-up questions worth asking first.
Will my team actually use it?
We involve the people doing the work and start with the few fields and views they need. A small, maintained pipeline is more useful than an elaborate empty one.
Can it send texts or emails?
Where your provider and permissions support it, yes. We agree on consent, message content, timing, and when a person should take over.
Can you work with an existing CRM?
Yes. We first check whether the problem is the setup, the workflow, missing integrations, or the software itself.
