Small and mid-sized businesses span innumerable industries and, as a result, may require vastly different tech solutions. However, when it comes to CRMs, your SMB needs a flexible solution that offers a broad selection of features and can scale as your business grows.
If you’re looking for the best customer relationship management (CRM) tool for your small or mid-sized business, we have the solution for you. Nutshell is a top-tier CRM for SMBs. Read on to learn more about our incredible software and how to get started with your free trial today.
You may wonder what makes a CRM valuable to small and mid-sized businesses. The main reason is that CRMs help you get a clearer picture of your audience. They let you view and analyze data about your customers to see what kinds of people buy from you and what they want.
Why is this helpful? Simple: By learning more about your buyers, you can figure out how to market to them more effectively down the road. With historical data about your customers and communication tools available in your CRM, you can improve your interactions with your customers and leads. That helps you manage your SMB sales pipeline effectively and drive more successful sales, earning you far more revenue.
In addition, SMB CRMs are helpful for several workflow automations, which frees you and your team up to spend more time on sales-related activities. In fact, investing in a robust CRM system like Nutshell offers you the following standout benefits:
Perhaps you’re about to invest in your first official CRM system. Or maybe you’re looking to upgrade your current system for one that can better support your operation. No matter the reason, finding a great CRM solution that can support your processes and help you achieve your company goals is a must.
You need a CRM that can help you generate new business while assisting with customer retention efforts. And sourcing a system that can adapt to your unique business approach and bring your team and departments together can make all the difference.
Nutshell delivers in each of these areas with the ultimate all-in-one CRM solution for sales, marketing, and support teams. Regardless of your type of SMB, your organization is guaranteed to benefit from these core features:
High-level contact management and organization strengthen client relationships. This is because customer and prospect data is stored in a central hub for anyone in your company to access. Therefore, every colleague has the same accurate and useful information on the customer at every possible touchpoint, influencing positive experiences.
One reason Nutshell is a great CRM for SMBs is that it offers exceptionally user-friendly contact management features. The dashboard is clean and attractive, the features are very intuitive, and everything is clearly organized and navigable.
Nutshell automatically divides your prospects into three separate groups: People, Leads, and Companies. Each group receives its own tab within the CRM, so you can quickly switch between them. With Nutshell, contact management is simplified with the following features:
One of the many benefits of using a CRM is that it can automate day-to-day tasks for you. These are generally administrative tasks and non-selling activities that take time away from client engagements and relationship-building activities.
With great automation features, your sales, marketing, and support teams can focus on their core responsibilities rather than wasting time on these mundane tasks.
Many CRMs possess this feature, but Nutshell truly goes above and beyond when it comes to automating sales and marketing processes. This frees you to spend more time optimizing other aspects of your company since you don’t have to spend as much time on mundane tasks.
There are several different tasks you can choose to automate in Nutshell, including the following:
Irrespective of your small or mid-sized business activities, you’ll need a CRM that allows you to draw the figures and reports you need to make critical business decisions. Comprehensive data-driven reports encourage informed decision-making and forecasts, and ensure you have the necessary information to make swift adjustments in response to market changes.
SMB CRMs are all about helping you gather data about your audience, activities, and performance. Without a modern CRM system, determining these metrics takes time and effort. But with a CRM in the fold, you can easily gather and organize data.
Analytics is another crucial aspect SMBs need to get right. Believe it or not, many CRMs don’t prioritize analytics—Instead, they gather data and leave you to analyze it on your own. Not Nutshell.
Nutshell offers the ability to create custom reports on just about every sales metric you can think of, allowing you to gain in-depth insights about your customers and your sales. All these reports can be conveniently found in Nutshell’s “Reports” tab. By analyzing your customer data, you can determine precisely how to market to them more effectively and drive more sales.
One of the many benefits of choosing Nutshell as your SMB CRM is that you’ll have access to some of the best email marketing tools available. Pairing email marketing functionality with a top-tier CRM is the best way to align your sales and marketing efforts.
With the Nutshell Campaigns add-on, you can send newsletters, broadcasts, and strategic drip sequences to prospects and customers for increased visibility and engagement. And you’ll have access to professionally designed templates to ensure your email campaigns hit the mark.
Having your email marketing tools tied to your CRM software makes for easier audience segmentation and targeting. It’s also a great way to bring marketing and sales together for more significant and impactful growth strategies.
Opting for Nutshell’s email marketing resources gives you the following unique features:

I have used Act, Goldmine and Salesforce in the past, and I have found that Nutshell was the easiest to get started with and to set up custom fields. I would recommend Nutshell to others that are interested in an easy to learn and navigate CRM.

We left Hubspot for Nutshell because Hubspot was too complex. Nutshell makes software for humans.

When we were evaluating CRMs, the one deciding factor between Nutshell and Salesforce came down to spin up time and price. Nutshell wins on both counts (by a huge margin). Salesforce was 10 times as much per month for what we wanted.
