In Productive, the Companies feature allows you to keep track of your clients and manage their related sales deals, budgets, contacts, and projects.
This feature helps simplify client management, providing a centralized location for all relevant information and activities.
How to Add Companies
To add a new company in-app, navigate to CRM > Companies. This section will display a list of existing companies in your account, complete with filters at the top to help narrow down search results.
You also have the option to upload client company information in bulk through CSV data import. Find out more about this here.
Adding a New Company In-App
To add a new company, click the violet "+ Company" button at the top right.
1) Add Company Details
Enter the company name and optionally include a company avatar. The avatar will be displayed across your Productive account in Resourcing, projects, and tables.
