I’ve spent enough time in finance and operations to see the pain of managing sales processes firsthand. We’ve all been sold on enterprise-grade CRMs—the massive platforms with a hundred features, a five-figure price tag (my last CRM cost bme $40,000 a year for about 12 users!), and an implementation process that takes months. Oh and you have to convince/train your team to use it – which is hard even as a CEO. They’re designed for a large corporation with endless budget and consultants on retainer. For everyone else, they’re an anchor.
SimpleCRM was created to address the three biggest pain points for any small business or lean sales team.
1. The Cost is a Flat Fee, Not a Tax on Growth
The single biggest reason teams avoid using a CRM is the per-seat pricing model. It’s a penalty for having a larger team. When a basic license can cost $50-$100+ per user, per month, a team of five is paying thousands a year before they even close a single deal.
SimpleCRM is priced at $25 per month for your entire team! Not per user. No additional fees for integrations, trainings, etc.
This is not a promotional price—it’s the full software, and the price is fixed. It’s designed to be a non-issue on your P&L, making it over 90% cheaper than most alternatives. We want to remove the cost barrier so you can focus on selling.
2. The Features Are Exactly What You Need
I’ve watched countless teams pay for features they never use. Advanced marketing automation, custom API integrations, complex reporting—it’s all great in a demo, but it’s pure overhead for a team that just needs to track deals and send emails.
simpleCRM has been stripped down to its core. The features are the ones you’ll use every single day:
- Contact & Company Records
- Deal Tracking
- Email Sending (both templated hand-written emails)
- Task Manager
- Pre-configured Analytics that tell you how your business is doing
- Free Gmail/Google Workspace integration for sending emails
There’s no bloat. We focused on building the best possible version of these core functions. You aren’t paying for a platform; you’re paying for a tool that simply works.
3. It Requires No Setup, No Training, No Friction
The final, and perhaps most critical, problem with traditional CRMs is the setup time. You can’t just sign up and start working. There’s a lengthy configuration process and a steep learning curve. The opportunity cost of that time is immense.
With simpleCRM, there is no setup. None. You can go from the sign-up page to a fully functioning sales tool in under 15 seconds. The entire design is intuitive. The UI is clean. You and your team can be working on deals almost instantly.
A Quick Comparison
Let’s put this in perspective. Here’s how a typical enterprise CRM compares to simpleCRM on key metrics for a small team.
Metric | Typical Enterprise CRM | simpleCRM |
---|---|---|
**Pricing Model** | Per user, per month ($50+). | **Per team, per month ($25)** |
**Setup Time** | Weeks or months | **15 seconds** |
**Training Required** | Extensive, often paid | **None** |
**Features** | Dozens of unused features | **Core features only** |
My philosophy has always been to build tools that solve a real problem in the most direct way possible. We did it with the due date calculator, we’ve done it with Brief Buddy, and now we’re doing it for sales teams. Check out **SimpleCRM** and get your team selling in minutes.
