CRM work we take on

From a first CRM to replace the spreadsheet, to the custom pieces a large CRM is missing.

Sales pipeline CRM
Leads, deals, stages, quotes and follow-ups that match your sales process, with the fields you actually use.
Customer and account records
One record per customer with contacts, orders, documents, invoices and every conversation.
Service and case management
Tickets, jobs and service visits with assignments, deadlines and a history the next person can read.
CRM for field teams
A mobile view for engineers or sales staff on the road, with offline notes and photos.
HubSpot and Salesforce extensions
Custom objects, integrations and apps for the CRM you already pay for, when replacing it would be a waste.
Moving off spreadsheets
We clean and import the data you have, so nobody starts from an empty screen.

How a CRM project runs

We map how a customer moves through your business before designing a screen.

  1. A free call

    30 minutes

    You describe the problem. We say whether it needs custom software at all, and roughly which price band it falls into.

  2. Written proposal

    No charge

    What is in, what is out, the price and the timeline, written down and agreed before the build starts.

  3. Build in weekly releases

    4 to 12 weeks

    A working version to click through every week, and you speak to the developers directly. An MVP usually takes 4 to 5 weeks, a Product build 10 to 12.

  4. Launch and stay on

    Monthly

    We handle the launch and fix what real use turns up. A support plan or a dedicated developer covers what comes next.

How we build CRM systems

Standard tools, chosen so another team could maintain it.

Laravel
Permissions, queues, mail and scheduled reminders in one framework.
Custom-built admin screens
CRM screens built around how your team sells, in React or Laravel. Filament for rapid application development when you need a working version in days.
Email and calendar sync
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, so conversations land on the right record.
Integrations
Accounts packages, your website forms, telephony and marketing tools, connected through their APIs.
Reporting
Pipeline, conversion and service figures on one dashboard, with exports.

When an off-the-shelf CRM is enough

Try the big products first if your process is standard.

Use HubSpot or similar when

  • You sell in a standard way: leads, deals, closed.
  • Marketing email is a big part of the job.
  • The team is small and per-seat fees are manageable.

Build a CRM when

  • Sales and operations need to share one customer record.
  • Your process has steps no CRM models well.
  • Per-seat fees across a large team cost more than owning it.
  • You need customers or partners to log in to the same data.

Working with us from anywhere in the UK

We run CRM projects remotely. Most of the work is understanding how your team sells and serves customers, which we do over shared-screen calls with the people who do it.

Questions buyers ask

Straight answers. If yours is not here, email us.

Should we build a CRM or use HubSpot?
If your process is standard, use HubSpot or a similar product. Build when your process is unusual, when sales and operations need one record, or when per-seat fees outgrow the cost of owning a system.
Can you move our data from spreadsheets or another CRM?
Yes. We clean, de-duplicate and import it, and check the result with you before launch.
How much does a custom CRM cost?
A first version starts from £1,999. A CRM with several roles and integrations is usually a Product build from £4,999.
Can you extend our existing HubSpot or Salesforce?
Yes. Custom integrations and apps for a CRM you already use are often the cheapest route.
