CRM Squirrel — Pipedrive Consulting & Automation
CRM Squirrel designs, implements, and scales Pipedrive so sales teams work faster, leaders get reliable forecasts, and customers enjoy a smoother journey from first touch to renewal. We translate real-world selling into clean pipelines, dependable automations, and insightful dashboards—so your team can close more with fewer clicks. Business History
CRM Squirrel was founded by Joshua Murphy, a Pipedrive expert with 4+ years of hands-on implementations and integrations across agencies, professional services, SaaS, real estate, and finance. We began with simple rescue projects—fixing cluttered pipelines and broken automations—then grew into a full RevOps partner trusted to launch greenfield instances, migrate complex data, and stitch together sales, marketing, billing, and support. Our philosophy hasn’t changed: start with your process, deliver fast wins, and build a scalable foundation that your team actually adopts. What We Do (Overview)
We make Pipedrive the reliable engine behind your revenue operations. That means mapping your buyer journey, structuring pipelines and fields, cleaning and migrating data, automating repetitive steps, integrating the tools you already use, and turning activity into decisions through role-specific reporting. Every engagement includes documentation, training, and light change-management so improvements stick. Services
Implementations & “Rescues”: Greenfield setups or cleanup of messy instances. Discovery, pipeline and field design, ownership rules, SLAs, and governance. Data Migration & Quality: Import from spreadsheets/legacy CRMs, deduplication, standardization, validation rules, health checks, and ongoing hygiene. Workflow Automation: Lead capture and routing, stage-based tasks, SLA timers, approvals, renewal reminders, activity sequencing, and handoff automation. Integrations: Google Workspace/Microsoft 365, telephony (click-to-call, call logging), web forms, marketing automation, billing/accounting, support platforms, data warehouses/BI. Reporting & Dashboards: Executive forecasts, pipeline coverage, velocity, win-rate by source/segment, SLA breaches, rep coaching views, and “what to do today” lists. Enablement & Admin: Role-based training, playbooks, in-app guides, documentation, permission schemes, naming conventions, change control, and ongoing admin packages. How We Work
Discovery — We map your funnel, handoffs, and SLAs; define essential fields; and agree on success metrics and a delivery cadence. Design — We shape pipelines, permissions, and workflows that reflect how your team actually sells—simple first, scalable by design. Build & Integrate — We configure Pipedrive, automate the busywork, and connect your ecosystem with reliable, documented integrations. Validate — We test with real data and reps, fix edge cases, and ensure reporting aligns to leadership questions. Enable & Govern — We train roles, ship playbooks, and implement light governance so your CRM stays clean as you grow. Outcomes You Can Expect

We align dashboards to decisions: coverage vs. target, forecast accuracy by stage, cycle time by segment, rep-level coaching views, and SLA integrity. Every chart has an owner, a meeting, and a cadence—so reporting becomes an operating rhythm, not wallpaper. Data Quality & Governance
Good outcomes require good inputs. We set validation rules at the source, define ownership and field stewardship, and schedule periodic health checks to prevent regression. You get a CRM that stays clean after go-live. Security & Privacy
We configure roles and permissions on least-privilege principles, enable SSO when feasible, separate sensitive fields, and document retention/export policies. Where applicable, we align usage with GDPR and regional privacy expectations by minimizing personal data and clarifying processing purposes. Engagement Models
Fixed-scope projects for new launches or rescues
Monthly RevOps retainers for iteration, support, and roadmap delivery
Targeted sprints for specific needs (lead routing, quoting, renewals, reporting)
