Commercial Discovery, Before Software

A CRM is only as good as what it was designed to do. Most were never designed — they were bought.

Commercial discovery and analysis define what a CRM needs to be built around, before any software gets compared or chosen. Skip it, and the usual result isn't just a system that doesn't fit — it's paying once to over-buy a system built for a business you're not yet running, and paying again a year later to strip it back or rebuild it properly.

This isn't a set of separate pages. It's one argument, in four parts.

01 The Mistake Why "I need a CRM" is the wrong first move, and what it costs businesses that make it anyway. 02 What to See What needs mapping — definitions, missing systems, broken handoffs — before any software comparison means anything. 03 Commercial Discovery A free 20-minute call, then — if it's a fit — a 5-day written Commercial Analysis (£300–£500) of what your CRM needs to capture, connect to, and be built in what order. 04 About Why this is the zero stage of a CRM project, not an implementation or a comparison service.
