Why do freelancers need a CRM solution?

It's a common misconception that only big companies need CRM solutions to manage their data and track their day-to-day progress. For any venture to succeed, operations must be managed, organized and tracked in an efficient manner. If you're a freelancer, this can get pretty hectic, since it's mostly a one-man job. It can become strenuous when clients and their work requirements increase. And it is near impossible to maintain all your leads and other data in a spreadsheet with limited features.

That's why you need Bigin.

Bigin is the best CRM solution
for freelancers

Bigin simplifies and streamlines your work with user-friendly features to help you manage different day-to-day operations—all in one place. This CRM software is specially built for micro businesses like yours, and can be a freelancer’s best friend when it comes to performing various time-consuming tasks. Since you earn wages on a per-job or per-task basis, it is essential to keep a proper record of your opportunities. To help you do this, there's no tool better than CRM software.

Track multiple projects with Pipelines

Keeping track of different tasks for different clients can be challenging if your data is not organized properly. With Bigin's Pipeline feature, you get a complete, clutter-free view of all your deals in their different stages. As deals progress, you can easily drag them from one stage to the next.

Increase your efficiency with
Stage Transition Rules

Stage transition rules make certain fields mandatory for a project to meet the requirements to progress to the next stage. For example, for an initial proposal to go to the final stage, the stage transition feature will make it mandatory to enter the proposal amount. If you do not enter the amount, the proposal will not be moved to the final stage.
