Setup also has blueprints for software and SaaS companies, agencies, real estate, healthcare, retail and e-commerce brands, and nonprofits. Any other business starts from a general sales pipeline that you can rename and reshape.

  1. Qualify

Fields, views and templates are yours to add as you go.

Guided setup

Nothing is applied until you have seen it.

  1. Setup reads your public website

    It picks up your company name, description, logo and contact details, for you to correct.

  2. You answer a few questions

    What you sell and how. Choices only you can make are left to you.

  3. You review the preview

    Pipelines, fields, views and templates, checked against your plan limits, then applied when you approve.

Start from a workspace that already speaks your trade.
