📚 “Why Sometimes You Don’t Need a CRM — You Need a Client Dossier”

If you’ve ever signed up for a CRM hoping to feel more organized… only to give up a week later, you’re not alone.

Most CRMs are built for large sales teams, not independent professionals. They’re packed with features like deal pipelines, lead scoring, and campaign automation — great if you’re selling to thousands of people. But what if you work 1-on-1 with clients?

Whether you’re a coach, consultant, psychologist, or lawyer, your needs are different:

  • You need to remember what happened in your last session
  • You need quick access to notes and documents
  • You need to know what to do next
  • And you need it fast — before your next meeting starts

That’s why we built ProperNotes.

Instead of managing “leads” in a pipeline, you create a dossier for each client. It’s a smart profile where you can add notes, upload files, track tasks, and even get an AI-generated summary of your last meeting.

No salesy jargon. No unnecessary complexity. Just a calm, clear space to organize every relationship you care about.
