What exactly is inside

The full list of what runs in production today, plus what is still being built — labelled plainly, so nobody buys a promise. Every block can be switched on and off separately.

Illustrative panel layout — you see real data once you sign in to your account.

01

Sales and clients

The core: one place where an enquiry turns into a client.

Leads from every channel

The website form, Facebook and Instagram ads, email and phone all land in one lead inbox with the source recorded. Nothing has to be retyped by hand.

A client record instead of a folder

Lead and client are one record throughout the life cycle — nothing gets duplicated on “promotion”. The record holds overview, engagements, finances, calendar, messages, notes and details in tabs.

A pipeline shaped around you

You define the stages and containers yourself, and a service category can carry its own detailed production pipeline inside the general one. Several paths can run at once — building boats looks nothing like selling caps.

Sources and attribution

Every lead carries its source and campaign parameters. After a month you can see which ad brings clients, not just clicks.

02

The work itself

Everything between “the client said yes” and “it's done”.

Projects with a plan and a Gantt

A job with a deadline and budget, a plan of stages, tasks with priorities and dependencies (Gantt view), project costs and income, documents and the team assigned to it.

Tasks and follow-ups

Assigned to a specific person, with a due date and priority. The panel shows what is overdue and which lead has been waiting more than forty-eight hours for an answer.

Calendar and appointments

Appointments and deadlines in one view, split per staff member, with an automatic reminder sent before the visit.

Company notepad

Shared team notes, kept apart from notes on a specific client. Everyone can read them, the author or a manager edits.

Switched on request

Stock without the paperwork

Four questions instead of full inventory management: what's running out, where the equipment is, what got used on which job and what's due for service.

03

Money and analysis

Numbers computed from data you enter anyway — nothing typed in twice.

Engagements and settlements

Every job has its own stage and its own settlement: flat rate or hourly. The balance is calculated automatically as the difference between what's been done and what's been paid.

Company finances with tax

Revenue, receipts, receivables, overheads and project costs, VAT charged and deductible, income tax split by settlement form. It's an estimate, not bookkeeping — and the panel says so.

Business analysis

Profitability of each service per hour, revenue trend, seasonality by month and a BCG matrix: what's a star, what's a cash cow and what's dead weight eating the calendar.

Owner's dashboard

Tiles for the chosen period: new clients with the percentage change, revenue, returning clients, where they came from and “needs action”. A zero never stands alone — the reason for it sits underneath.

04

Company and people

Everything that lets you bring a team into the system, not just yourself.

Staff and permissions

You create accounts inside the CRM, not at a hosting provider. A role plus individual permissions decide who sees other people's leads and who sees amounts — sales see their own, money is for managers.

Services, prices and working hours

A service catalogue with default rate, VAT, billing type and duration, plus working hours per day and per person. The catalogue underpins profitability — which is why it's counted per service, not per job title.

Switched on request

Online booking 24/7

A public booking page under your own firm: service → person → free slot → details and consent → email confirmation and an appointment in the calendar. The code runs in production; we switch the module on when it's needed.

05

Your site, steered from the panel

This part exists because the same person builds the site and the system — otherwise it couldn't be wired together.

Project photos published from the panel

You add photos and a description in the CRM and the entry appears on your site. The images go straight to the site's hosting — visitors never touch the system.

Prices, services and opening hours

A price or an opening hour changed in the panel goes live on the site. You don't message me “change the price of a haircut” — you change it yourself, when it needs changing.

Publishing to Facebook

A finished job can go out as a post on the company page in one click. The system makes sure the same work doesn't get posted twice.

06

Integrations

Less copying from window to window — data lands where it belongs.

Form and bookings from the site

An enquiry from the site enters the system immediately as a lead with a task, not as an email somebody has to transcribe onto a list.

Google Drive

Client documents attached to the client record instead of a “to be sorted” folder on somebody's desktop.

Company email

Microsoft/Outlook and your own sending addresses. Correspondence stays on the client's record, including when a colleague was the one writing.

Meta Lead Ads

Leads from Facebook and Instagram ads arrive on their own, tagged with the campaign — no CSV downloads from the ads manager.

Google or Microsoft sign-in

No extra password to remember. You revoke an employee's access with one switch in the panel, not by changing a password for everyone.

07

Always included

Things that aren't sold separately, because without them the system has no business existing.

Audit log

Who changed what and when — including me, when I help with your account. Nothing happens in the background without a trace.

Backups and the EU region

A daily backup, data held in the EU, every account in its own isolated space. Two companies' data never mix.

Export and deletion

A full export, or deletion of one person's data on request. GDPR requires it and it's built in from the start, not bolted on later.

08

In development

Announced but not working yet. It's written here so nobody buys it as finished.

In development

AI assistant

Two stages, split by data sensitivity rather than difficulty: first commands (add a task, move a stage, show what's overdue) on pseudonymised data, then analysis of notes and correspondence. A separate decision and a separate tier — it won't switch itself on.

In development

Google Calendar and Meta messages

Two-way sync with Google Calendar, plus Messenger and Instagram messages attached to the client record.

In development

Extended analytics

Results per employee, client lifetime value, clients at risk of leaving and trends per service. The core is already computed in Finances — this extends it.

Rollout

You don't get a login and an empty screen

I do the rollout: creating the account and configuring stages, importing your clients, training the team. The system is half the work — the other half is setting it up so the numbers mean something.
