7 Signs You've Outgrown Spreadsheets

1
You have multiple versions of "the" spreadsheet

sales_leads_v3_FINAL_real.xlsx anyone?

2
Team members overwrite each other's updates

Even with Google Sheets, you lose data when two people edit the same row.

3
You forget to follow up with leads

Spreadsheets don't send reminders. Leads go cold.

4
You can't see your pipeline health at a glance

Pivot tables only go so far. You need a real pipeline view.

5
You're copying and pasting between email and spreadsheet

Every email requires manual data entry. That's not scalable.

6
New team members take weeks to learn "the system"

Your spreadsheet has hidden formulas and tribal knowledge.

7
You spend more time updating the spreadsheet than selling

The tool should help you sell, not create busy work.

Why Not Just Use Salesforce or HubSpot?

You've probably looked at the big CRMs. Here's why they don't work for teams just outgrowing spreadsheets:

  • Salesforce: Costs $165+/user/month, requires a dedicated admin, takes months to implement
  • HubSpot: Free tier is limited, paid plans start at $20/user/month (Starter), automations need $90/user (Pro)
  • Pipedrive: Good, but $49/user/month for the features you need, plus add-on fees

You need something in between—more structured than spreadsheets, simpler than enterprise software.
