Getting Started
We designed this CRM with our clients in mind. Striving to make a friendly user-interface to assist you with lead organization was the goal in designing this tool for your use. You have two routes for keeping track of your leads. You can either opt to use the web application which will give you a clean interface to visually update the leads you receive or you can opt to update all the leads you receive via SMS with a few commands that sync directly with the web application dashboard! Please feel free to contact us on the support page of your CRM or on this website if you need any assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can any number text to update the leads?
No, only phone numbers registered and added to our database can revise leads assigned to them. Please note that a single user can add two phone numbers to use for this purpose (primary & secondary)
Do I need to place the value directly after the = sign?
Yes, this way our system can read it and interpret it properly. Please be sure to remove any spaces directly after the = sign so the command can run properly.
