SingCRM can offer you all the information you need to know on one screen, simply personalise your dashboard with everything that you normally need to use in your day to day business dealings.

I have so many different employees working on so many different projects that I sometimes lose track of who is doing what - how can I check who is doing what without interrupting them?

SingCRM's project planning feature is perfect for keeping a check on who is doing what - simply click into it and see how many tasks are outstanding and who is working on them. You can also set the priority on tasks from low - high so that you can see which projects are the most important and approaching their deadlines. Such a feature helps you to be proactive as a manager, if you see a deadline approaching and the project has not been progressed as far as it should be, you can divert extra employees to the task so that the deadline is met. SingCRM will even let you add ad hoc tasks and outstanding tasks to your screen so that you can get a total overview of everything that is outstanding in real time.

There are a couple of projects with approaching deadlines, but a lot of my employees have been hit with a bug - what can SingCRM do to help me?

This is a problem that is quite common from time to time in businesses and business owners should have a plan for when this happens to get information on everyone who is in work on a given day. Often this used to be a frantic session of telephoning departments and getting numbers of employees in work, with SingCRM simply clicking into the business wide fully integrated staff calendar and seeing who is in and who isn't at a glance. Then you can start to work on what is important – meeting deadlines.

At the end of the last financial year a lot of unpaid invoices were found on various different software programs - how can I store all quotes together so that this does not happen again?

This is another common problem in businesses as employees save outstanding invoice details in various spreadsheet programs or save them straight to their personal files to reallocate later, and often this is not done or the files are deleted. With SingCRM each and every invoice is created on the application and saved to the correct customer file instantly. This means that all invoices are created and stored on the same application so that they will always be in the right place. SingCRM will even highlight all the outstanding invoices it has at any one time, in real time, so that you can see, at a glance, how much money is owed to your business. This not only helps to cut down on lost invoices as they should never get lost again, but it can also help to tighten up on the collection practices of your employees as invoices get chased sooner and your bottom line improves.

I would like to provide some kind of loyalty based discount scheme for my best customers - how can I find out who they are without devoting lots of time to going back through the previous years orders and invoices?

You can also make use of the Total Revenue Per Customer feature which is contained in the reports section of SingCRM - and this is the tool that you would use to determine who are your best customers. This information can then be used as part of the discount or reward package, or you could take a look and see which are customers that are beginning to place repeat orders and give them an incentive to place another order. The possibilities of using SingCRM to increase customer revenue are never ending as information can always be used in a beneficial way to improve customer service and this in turn leads to more orders being placed.
