Agency & services

From the brief to the retainer.

For studios, agencies and consultancies that sell projects and retainers: a pipeline from first brief through discovery and proposal, the service and the monthly retainer on every deal, and invoices from the same place.

The agency preset is on Pro and Business. Accounting comes with Business.

    Website, branding, marketing, consulting, development: on every deal and in every filter, so you see which work you win.

  • Retainers and one-off projects

    Mark a deal as a retainer and record its monthly value and start date next to the one-off projects.

  • Discovery to Proposal stages

    Lead, Discovery, Proposal Sent, Negotiation, Won or Lost. Stages are yours to rename or extend, so an SOW step is one new stage away.

  • Agency sources and clients

    Portfolio, Clutch, LinkedIn and repeat clients as sources; clients, freelancers and partners as contact types.

On every deal

The service, the engagement, the retainer.

The agency preset adds the fields to deals, so the board, the filters and the dashboard can tell projects from retainers.

Questions

Agency & services: what people ask.

Does it track time or project tasks?

No. It covers winning and invoicing the work: clients, the pipeline, retainers and, on Business, invoices and payments. Time tracking and project management are not part of it.
