Are you looking for CRM recommendations for your Business?
Hello!
You must have asked for some recommendations for a CRM.
That’s how I got to know that you’re looking for one and sent you a link to this article.
A quick note about me
I am a business consultant for SMBs.
I work with SMB founders to help them grow their businesses using SaaS, systems built using Nocode platforms, Analytics, and automation.
I have a clientele spread across the UK, the US, Europe, and Australia.
The tools I love working with are Pipedrive, Glide Apps, and Zapier.
My experience with Pipedrive
During my time helping business founders, I have worked with a few CRMs over the past 5 years.
However, I like Pipedrive the most, especially for first-time CRM users and small teams, ones who are looking to move beyond spreadsheets.
My proudest CRM success with a British D2C luxury brand came with Pipedrive.
I created a Google Sheets-based CRM for the business, which took them from 0 to GBP350,000 per month in 18 months. At that point, I migrated their systems to Pipedrive and saw a 4x growth in sales in one year, and to GBP3.4M at its peak, all thanks to Pipedrive.
I have set up Pipedrive for 4 dental practices in the UK alone. Two of them saw continued growth and I still work with them to improve other areas of the business while one of them continues to use the optimized Pipedrive system I set up for them and that dental practice is almost on auto-pilot when it comes to sales systems.
Most recently, I helped a European company restructure and optimize its Pipedrive setup by employing best practices and leveraging automation opportunities.
There are many such client stories that I don’t want to bore you with.
Besides, I am the top contributor to Pipedrive's community where I address challenging queries from Pipedrive business users.

Framework to select the right CRM
Given so many choices for your next CRM, I am sharing a framework I developed for CRM selection.
This framework is based on the understanding that no CRM will satisfy 100% of your requirements. And conversely, you will never use 100% of a CRM solution's capabilities. So this framework is designed to help you select the CRM that best serves your needs.
I followed this approach when I moved the British D2C brand from a Google Sheets-based CRM I developed to Pipedrive.
While you use this framework, I can be your Pipedrive Expert to vet your requirements against Pipedrive's capabilities.
Why am I doing this?
I am an independent and individual business consultant. This outreach helps me connect with people in my domain.
There's a monetary angle as well.
When you upgrade for any of the services I have listed in these emails, I get a referral commission from the service provider at no additional cost to you.
So it's a win-win-win for us all.
Summary
I wish you the best with your CRM selection process.
The wrong CRM can often break or derail your business (I have seen it firsthand!).
So please get all the help you can to select the right CRM.
