Building a CRM people actually want to use

Most CRM adoption problems aren't about features — they're about friction. The best CRM is the one your team doesn't fight with.

Principles that mattered

  1. Match the pipeline to how deals actually move, not a generic template
  2. Keep data entry to the minimum needed to be useful
  3. Reporting should answer questions people already ask out loud

More detail on this coming soon.
