Consultants — Automation for consultants
Leads need scoping questions, proposals sit unanswered, and hours and expenses get pieced together at billing time. These are the parts software can take over, with the partner still deciding which work to take, the fee and the advice to the client. 36 automations fit, each with an example and workflow written for consultants.
