Never let a client opportunity slip

When your team is heads-down delivering for existing clients, new business follow-ups are the first thing to fall through the cracks. Nutshell’s visual pipelines give you a clear view of every pitch, proposal, and retainer renewal—so nothing gets missed, even on your busiest weeks.

Set up automated reminders and follow-up sequences that run in the background while your team focuses on client work. When a prospect goes quiet after receiving a proposal, Nutshell nudges them automatically—no manual tracking required.

  • Visual pipelines: See every pitch, proposal, and renewal at a glance
  • Automated follow-ups: Trigger emails and reminders so no prospect goes cold
  • Renewal tracking: Never miss a retainer renewal or upsell opportunity

Win more clients, faster

The agency that responds to a brief first—and follows up consistently—usually wins the work. Nutshell helps you capture inbound leads the moment they arrive and makes it easy for your team to follow up fast, from anywhere.

Use web forms and an AI chatbot to qualify prospects and capture inquiries around the clock. Then reach out with one click—call or email directly from the CRM—so your team spends less time switching apps and more time having conversations that win business.

  • 24/7 lead capture: Web forms and AI chatbot qualify leads around the clock
  • One-click calling & email: Reach prospects instantly from any device
  • Automatic lead routing: Get new inquiries to the right person immediately

Keep your whole team in sync

Agency accounts touch a lot of people—account managers, creatives, and leadership all need the same client context to do their best work. When that context lives in someone’s inbox or a personal spreadsheet, things fall apart fast.

Nutshell gives your entire team a shared view of every client account—full communication history, open tasks, past proposals, and key contacts—all in one place. Whether someone’s at their desk or on-site with a client, they always have what they need.

  • Shared contact records: Full interaction history visible to the whole team
  • Mobile CRM: Update client info and log notes from anywhere
  • @mentions & task alerts: Coordinate across teams without leaving the CRM

Turn retainer clients into long-term revenue

Landing a client is just the beginning. Keeping them—and growing the relationship—is where agencies build sustainable revenue. Nutshell’s built-in email and SMS marketing tools make it easy to stay connected, spot at-risk accounts early, and identify upsell opportunities before renewal conversations happen.

Send targeted check-ins, share campaign results, or promote new services to the right clients at the right time. All from the same platform where you manage your pipeline.

  • Targeted email campaigns: Segment by service type, retainer tier, or engagement level
  • SMS marketing: Reach clients where they’re most likely to respond
  • Performance reporting: Spot at-risk accounts and act before they churn

Frequently Asked Questions

  • 1. How does Nutshell compare to Salesforce and HubSpot for agencies?

  • 2. How long does it take to implement Nutshell and get my team up and running?

    Most agencies go live within days, not months. Nutshell’s intuitive interface means minimal training needed. You can start with self-onboarding or use white-glove support for faster setup. Many agencies see their first closed deal in the new system within weeks.

  • 3. Can I migrate my data from my current CRM to Nutshell without losing information?

    Yes. Nutshell supports automatic migrations from 25+ CRMs including Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, and Zoho. Start with a sample migration to verify data mapping, then request full migration approval. Nutshell’s support team handles the technical work, and you can use white-glove services for complex migrations.

  • 4. What integrations does Nutshell support, and can I connect it to my existing tools?

    Nutshell connects to 6,000+ apps through native integrations and Zapier. Popular integrations include Gmail, Slack, Stripe, QuickBooks, Zoom, and project management tools. If your tool isn’t listed, Nutshell’s AppConnect feature enables custom integrations. Most setup takes minutes—no IT department required.

  • 5. Does Nutshell include email marketing automation, or do I need a separate tool?
