MicroCRM is the simple, native CRM for freelancers, consultants and small businesses. Track your clients, your deals and every follow-up in one place, without the complexity or price of enterprise CRMs. SEE YOUR SALES PIPELINE Track every project, proposal and retainer as a deal with a value and an expected close date. Drag deals across Lead, Proposal, Negotiation, Won and Lost, and see the total in each stage at a glance. Deals that stall or slip past their close date are flagged, so nothing quietly dies. KNOW WHAT'S COMING IN Your open pipeline, a forecast weighted by stage, revenue won in the last 30 days and your win rate sit right above the board. Pro adds monthly won revenue, average days to win, and a list of deals that need a nudge. BRING YOUR CLIENTS WITH YOU Import clients from Apple Contacts or a CSV file in seconds. MicroCRM reads exports from Google Contacts, Outlook and LinkedIn, skips people you already have, and sets each client's time zone from their address. NEVER MISS A FOLLOW-UP Set follow-up reminders and get notified when they're due. The Needs Attention list keeps clients who owe you payment or feedback front and center, so nothing falls through the cracks. EVERY CONVERSATION IN ONE TIMELINE Log calls, emails, texts, meetings and notes on each client. Follow-ups, status changes and deal wins are added to the timeline automatically, so you always know where things stand. SMART TIME ZONE AWARENESS Working with clients around the world? MicroCRM shows each client's local time everywhere, so you know the best moment to reach out. No more mental math. CALENDAR AND MAP See follow-ups and activity on a calendar, and view your clients on a map. MENU BAR ACCESS On Mac, check who you're waiting on, upcoming follow-ups, client local times and your open pipeline right from the menu bar. AI INSIGHTS (Pro) Apple Intelligence reviews your clients, follow-ups and deals on your device and suggests what to do next: which deals to push this week, who's going cold, and who to remind about payment. WHAT YOU GET • Client management with contact details, photos, company, address and notes • Deals pipeline with drag-and-drop stages, values and close dates • Revenue forecast and win rate • Import from Apple Contacts or CSV (Google, Outlook, LinkedIn) • Follow-up reminders with notifications • Activity timeline for calls, emails, texts, meetings and notes • Local time for every client • Status tracking: Waiting for Money, Waiting for Feedback, Active • Calendar and map views • Menu bar quick access on Mac • Native on Mac, iPhone and iPad FREE Try MicroCRM with up to 10 clients and 3 open deals, the last 30 days of activity history, and your headline insights.
