Tool 01Live band

Price a CRM implementation in six inputs, before anyone gets on a call.

This CRM implementation cost estimator runs on the same rates we quote from. Set your seat count, pipelines, records to migrate, integrations, automation depth and training sessions. The band updates as you type, in USD, with a per-seat figure and a calendar length.

Estimator

Set the variables, read the band

Every slider has a number box beside it. Tab through them, type a figure, or use the arrow keys. Training sessions follow your seat count at one per 12 seats until you change them yourself.

Estimator / Needs JavaScript

The live estimator needs JavaScript. The rate table below has every figure it uses, so you can work the band out by hand, or call (415) 901-7000 and we will do it with you.

Estimator / rule 06

The estimate is a band, not a quote. We quote after a 45-minute scoping call, in writing.

Method notes

How the band is calculated

The build subtotal is base setup plus seats, plus extra pipelines, plus integrations. That subtotal gets multiplied by the automation depth. Migration and training are added afterwards at their own rates, because a dirtier dataset or a bigger training cohort does not get harder when you add more routing rules.

Low and high are calculated separately, every line at its low rate and then every line at its high rate. Where a job lands in the band depends on things a slider cannot see: how many custom objects your CRM already carries, whether the data comes from one export or four, whether anyone on your side can sign off a stage sheet within a week.

The per-seat figure is the total divided by seats, rounded to $5. Use it to compare against a per-seat licence cost, not to budget. A 3-seat team pays mostly base setup, so its per-seat figure looks high. It is.

Calendar length is 3 weeks, plus one week per 25 seats, plus one week per 3 integrations, capped at 12. It counts from the signed stage sheet, not from the first call. The week-by-week process shows what happens in each of them.

Automation depth, in plain words

Basic is assignment and a handful of reminders. Standard adds territory or account-owner lead routing, a stale-deal alert at 14 days and task sequences per stage. Advanced adds discount approvals, multi-step sequences and cross-object rules. Most teams under 40 seats need Standard and ask for Advanced.

Limits

What the estimator leaves out

01

Licences

CRM licence fees are paid to your vendor, not to us, and they are not in any figure on this page. We take no commission from any vendor, so we have no reason to push you to a bigger tier.

02

Dashboards and retainer

Forecast dashboards are priced separately at $600 to $1,100 each on the reporting page. The admin retainer is $1,150 a month for 10 hours and starts after launch.

Some work is outside our scope at any price. The out-of-scope list, with the reasons, sits on the services page.

From band to quote

What happens after you send the numbers

  1. Same day

    We read your inputs

    The copy button puts every variable and the band into the form below. We reply during business hours, Pacific time, usually within one business day.

  2. Within a week

    45-minute scoping call

    We look at your current CRM with you, screen shared, and ask about the three things that move a job inside the band: data sources, custom objects and who signs off.

  3. 2 business days later

    Written quote

    A fixed price inside or near the band, with the deliverables listed. If the real job falls outside the band we say why, in writing, before you agree to anything.
