Turn referrals and RFPs into

Your board comes set up like this. Rename anything.

You sell between deliveries.
The tracker can't be a chore.

New business dies in the gaps — the referral answered late, the proposal never nudged, the “let's talk next quarter” that nobody wrote down.

Follow-ups die in the inbox.

The website redesign you scoped in March. The brand refresh proposal nobody nudged. Every open proposal sits on the board until it's answered — and quiet ones frost over so you see them.

The pipeline lives in the founder's head.

One shared board: every referral, RFP, and pitch — its stage, value, and owner. Partners see the same picture, live. No Monday-morning “where are we with…” round.

A CRM is a project. You have projects.

No fields to configure, no admin to appoint. Your board arrives set up for how client work is won — referral, scope, proposal, booked — and you can rename anything.

Built for how client work actually gets won.

Every opportunity on one board.

Each prospect is a card: client, engagement value, owner, and stage — from first conversation through booked. Website redesigns, rebrands, campaigns, and retainers side by side. Drag it forward as it moves.

The whole story stays on the engagement.

Scope notes, the proposal you sent, what they pushed back on, who has to approve it — attached to the opportunity. Hand a project to a partner and they can read the history in a minute.

Your new-business number, always current.

Proposals sent, engagements booked, and revenue booked — charted monthly against your goals, automatically. The partner meeting starts with facts instead of impressions.

The eight emails every engagement generates — already written.

Your board comes with a reply library built for new business. One click opens the email in Gmail with the contact's name and company filled in.

Dealboard tracks winning the work — it is not project management, time tracking, or invoicing. Keep your delivery stack; Dealboard is what runs before the engagement is signed.

Questions firms ask.

Is this project management?
No. Dealboard tracks winning the work — referrals, scoping, proposals, and signatures. Once an engagement is booked, your project-management and time-tracking tools take over. Keeping the two separate is why Dealboard stays fast enough to actually update between client calls.
How do retainers work if there's one amount field?
Enter the first-year value on the card and note the monthly rate in Key Terms — for example, “Retainer — $8,000/mo, first-year value entered.” That way project work and retainers sit on the same board and your revenue reports add up correctly, without a second set of fields to maintain.
Can I change the stages?
Yes. Your board arrives with a new-business pipeline — New Lead, Intro Call Scheduled, Qualified, Scope Defined, Proposal Sent, Decision / Negotiation, Verbal Yes, Agreement / Deposit Pending, Booked — and every stage can be renamed, reordered, added, or removed. Most firms keep the shape and rename one or two.
Does it work for consultants and fractional execs, not just agencies?
Yes. The pipeline is the same shape for any professional-services firm selling scoped engagements — design studios, dev shops, management consultants, PR firms, fractional executives. The example data is agency-flavored, and it's cleared with one click.
What does it cost?
Free for one board and up to 30 active opportunities, with unlimited teammates — no per-seat charge on the free plan. Plus is $29 per user per month for unlimited boards and opportunities. Booked and lost work never counts toward the free limit.
