A brand enquiry comes in and the proposal is slow, so a quicker consultant wins the pitch.
CIPHER CRM for sales & marketing consultants, in plain words
A sales and marketing consulting CRM is one place to win and keep clients: it captures enquiries and referrals for strategy and campaign work, sends fee proposals, tracks each pitch through negotiation, and reminds you before monthly retainers lapse, instead of loose emails and a diary.
Sales and marketing consultancies across India selling strategy, campaign and growth advisory to brands and businesses, from a solo consultant to a small agency-style practice.

Do these everyday problems in sales & marketing consultants sound familiar?
Campaign delivery eats the week, which is why pitches slip, not because your consultants lack drive. Brand enquiries arrive by email and Instagram, proposals live in slide decks, and retainer dates sit in one person's calendar.
Past clients are not followed up for the next campaign or project.
Monthly retainers slip at renewal because nobody tracked the date.
Follow-ups on sent proposals stall while the team is delivering campaigns.
The client relationship sits with one consultant, so a departure risks the account.
Brand enquiries land on one list, and the proposal goes out while the brief is fresh. Past clients get a call before their next campaign. Monthly retainers show their renewal date, so nothing lapses during a busy launch.
Sales & Marketing Consultants enquiries scattered across notebooks, calls and WhatsApp
Every sales & marketing consultants enquiry captured in one list with a named owner
Nobody is sure who was meant to manage client leads and proposals
A named owner and a due date on every sales & marketing consultants follow-up
Quotes rebuilt by hand and sent hours late
Branded quotes from saved item rates in minutes
No single view of how you track engagements and follow-ups
A progress board with deal values, and a live overdue flag on unpaid bills
Sales & Marketing Consultants history walks out of the door when staff leave
Every deal, quote and note kept on the customer record
