How We Work → CRM

CRM: implemented around your actual sales process, not a generic one

A CRM that works is not the one with the most features - it is the one the sales team uses every day because it mirrors exactly how they work. We start from there.

The most common problem

"We bought a CRM, we did the training, but three months later the team went back to using Excel."

- The reason is almost always the same: the CRM was not configured around their real process.

How we implement a CRM in 5 phases

We do not install software and hand over a password. We first understand how you sell. Then we configure the CRM around exactly that process.

1

Sales process analysis

A map of the real sales cycle: where does a lead come from, how is it qualified, who takes it on, how many stages does the negotiation have, how does it close, what happens after the sale. Only then do we know what the CRM needs to manage - and what is pointless to configure.

2

Selection & configuration

Based on the analysis, we choose the most suitable CRM - or our Nexo CRM if you are an Italian SME wanting maximum customisation. Then we configure it: pipeline, custom fields, automations, role permissions. No features you will not use, no options that confuse the team.

3

Data migration & integration

We migrate data from current systems (Excel, legacy CRM, legacy database) with cleaning, deduplication and field mapping. We connect the CRM to existing systems: ERP, invoicing software, website, email marketing. One unified system - no more data silos.

4

Hands-on team training

Not a theoretical lesson: we simulate real workflows together with the team. "A lead comes in from LinkedIn - let's do the first 5 operations in the CRM together." Training uses your company's real data, not invented examples. Duration: half a working day, not a 3-day course.

5

Monitoring & optimisation

The first 60 days are critical for adoption. We remain available for adjustments: a missing field, an automation to modify, a report that is not saying what it needs to. Then a quarterly report on actual CRM usage: who uses it, who does not, and why.

Why the "off-the-shelf CRM" approach does not work

The problem is not the software. It is that it is sold "for everyone" and installed without understanding how you actually work.

🔍

We always start with analysis

An initial sales process analysis session is included in the quote. It is not possible to configure a CRM correctly without first understanding how you sell.

⚙️

Bespoke configuration

Pipeline, fields, automations and permissions are configured around your specific process. You do not activate 200 features of which you will use 15.

🔗

Integration with all systems

The CRM connects to ERP, invoicing, website and email marketing. Data is no longer in separate silos - a single view of the client.

📈

Monitored adoption

For the first 60 days we monitor actual usage. If someone on the team is not using it, we find out why - and adjust. The goal is 100% adoption, not 100% installation.

How it integrates with other services

The CRM is the nervous centre of the system. It collects data from every client touchpoint - website, social, ERP - and makes it accessible to the sales team in a single view.

  • Bespoke software development If you have needs not covered by any off-the-shelf CRM, we develop bespoke modules that integrate with the chosen CRM.
  • Website Contact forms, quote requests and live chats on the website automatically feed the CRM - no lead is lost.
  • Social media Leads from social campaigns and messaging enter the CRM with the source tracked - you know what converts.

Our CRM solutions

Two paths, one philosophy: the CRM adapts to your process, not the other way around.

Sectors where we implement CRM

Every sector has a different sales process. Knowing it in advance makes all the difference.

Frequently asked questions about CRM

The most common questions before starting a CRM project.

We use Nexo CRM, the CRM we developed in-house for Italian SMEs, or build a fully bespoke CRM if the needs require it. No third-party licences involved: everything is built and maintained by our in-house team. The choice between the two paths is made during the analysis phase, after understanding how your sales process actually works.

During analysis: the sales manager and at least 2 operational salespeople. During training: the entire team who will use the CRM daily. The more the team is involved from the start, the higher the final adoption rate.

We handle the data migration ourselves. The process: export current data, clean and deduplicate, map fields to the new CRM structure, import in a test environment for verification, then import to production. For large databases (over 10,000 contacts) we run a pilot on a subset before the full migration.

Yes - that is one of the advantages of working with us: we build the necessary integrations. The most common cases are: CRM ↔ company ERP, CRM ↔ accounting software, CRM ↔ website (contact forms, quote requests). Every integration is planned in the initial analysis.
