A financial services company was using Excel spreadsheets to track sales leads and manage their sales pipeline. This manual process led to inefficiencies, lack of visibility, and difficulties in collaboration. UpSys implemented ClickUp as a centralized CRM and workflow tool, streamlining company's lead management and enabling real-time collaboration, automation, and reporting.

Executive Summary
The Challenge
Lead tracking was managed in static Excel files, resulting in:
- Outdated or duplicated information
- Limited access and collaboration for the sales team
- No automation or reminders for follow-ups
- Difficulty generating reports or tracking sales performance
- Risk of data loss or errors due to manual updates
The Solution
- Migrated all lead data from Excel into ClickUp.
- Built a single, centralized list for client tracking, structured with multiple stages (e.g., New Lead, Contacted, Proposal Sent, Negotiation, Won/Lost).
- Developed template checklists for each stage, ensuring standardized processes and best practices.
- Set up automations to:
- Move leads between stages based on actions or dates
- Trigger reminders and notifications for follow-ups
- Assign tasks automatically to the right team member
The Results
- Reduced lead response time by 40% through automated reminders and clear ownership.
- Increased sales pipeline visibility, with management able to generate real-time reports in seconds (previously took hours).
- Improved data accuracy, eliminating duplicate or outdated entries by 100%.
- Boosted team collaboration, with all sales reps actively updating and tracking leads in ClickUp.
- Achieved a 25% increase in closed deals within the first three months after implementation.
- Saved an estimated 10 hours per week previously spent on manual updates and reporting.
