According to a study by Capterra CRM-Implementationon average 4-8 months*.

But why actually?

80% of the time is used for functions that are never used later.

Last month, I spoke to a managing director (32 employees, €5.1 million turnover) who had been offered a 7-month project for €85,000 by an IT service provider.

My question: "What 5 things does your CRM need to be able to do to make your sales more successful?"

His answer took 10 minutes.

The solution for 80% of its requirements: 2 weeks implementation.

Here is our approach:

✅ Day 1: Clarify requirements (4-hour workshop)

✅ Day 5: System configured, data migrated

✅ Day 10: Team trained, first tests

✅ Day 14: Go-Live and productive operation

Our secret:

We focus on the 20% of functions that bring 80% of benefit.

The rest is often just expensive ballast.

We will prove it at the end of October with APEX4ward.
