- Wouldn't it be great
if you could use Trello as a complete CRM system? Wouldn't it be great if you
could open up any Trello card and add customer information
right here within the card, but then be able to
access this and reuse it in other cards or other boards? And wouldn't it be
fantastic if you could get some meaningful data
out of your Trello board so that you can follow each
and every one of your leads through the sales process? Well, the good news is you
can, and in this video, I'm going to show you
everything you need to know about how to use Crmble for Trello, so you can get the most
out of your CRM system. So in order to get started with Crmble, all you need to do is either
create a new Trello board, or you can select an existing board. Maybe you already have a
pipeline or a sales funnel board right here within Trello. For that particular
board go up to show menu, then select the power ups option. And in the search bar, all we
need to do is search for CRM, and the very first selection is Crmble. Just like you would for
any other Trello power-up, all we need to do is select add and now we can start using these features right here within this board. Now, once you've enabled
Crmble for your Trello board, you'll be presented with
the Crmble interface. And what I love about this is that it doesn't open it up in a separate tab, you can manage this
directly here within Trello. Now, you can either use your existing list for that particular Trello board, or you can select from a
collection of templates, which Crmble provides. So in this case, I'm going
to use this six step process starting with new leads and contacts all the way to first call and hopefully, to get
them to this close status. And of course you can make
any changes that you want, either here in the Crmble list
tab or on your Trello board. So maybe instead of first
call, I want to rename this. I'm going to call this one a follow up. Follow up is what this one is going to be. I'm going to say update
and then that's going to be reflected on my Trello board as well. The next place that you're
going to want to visit is the Crmble fields tab, because this is going to show us all of the contact information, but also the lead information
that we want listed on each card. Now, when first starting out
Crmble's going to give you a number of options, and a
lot of these are fantastic. Things such as name and
contact information, job title, maybe things like address, and even add additional notes field so that the notes stay with that client, stay with that perspective lead, and don't just get lost in a Trello card somewhere down the line. Down below, we have lead information. So if you want to keep track
of things like your source, when this client was created,
and the value of the deal, you can do so as well. Crmble makes it really easy if we want to toggle things on or off. Maybe I don't care about their job title so I'm going to toggle
that particular one off. And, just like regular
custom fields within Trello, you can choose to display this information on the front of the card as well. Maybe I want the name and
surname to be displayed on the front of the card,
so I can toggle it here. And maybe I can choose to
hide the birthday information on the inside of the card,
if I don't want to see it, I can still add it to the contact record, I just don't want to be able to see that when I'm within my particular Trello card. Of course, if you want
to add your own fields, all you need to do is hit
the plus button up here and you can create your own custom fields, which will be displayed
within that client area within the Trello card. Now that we've set up, both
our lists and our fields, let's close the dialogue and
return to our Trello board. So here you can see,
we have the same lists, which we just saw within the Crmble field. And even if we renamed it, it's going to reflect it here as well. So let's start in the new leads column. And let's say I've got a big
deal worth a lot of money, that's the name of this particular deal just for this example, what I'm going to do is I'm
going to click on this card and everything looks pretty regular here. However, right in the middle, just below the description area, is where I have my Crmble field. I can directly input,
enter the information of this prospective client, it's going to save it
to my Crmble database so I can reuse it as often as I want. So let's go ahead and
enter in some information about our prospect. I'm going to say this is Jane Doe. I'm going to say that her
number is (555) 432-1111. Email address is jdoe@email.com,
and maybe just some notes, had a great conversation
at the conference, something like that. So I'm going to say, save
new contact at this point, and what it's going to do, it's going to add it directly here. Not only so I can see it,
retrieve it, and review it, here within my Trello card, but it's also going to save
it to my Crmble database. So if I need to repurpose Jane DOE, maybe she's going to purchase
something else from me in the future, maybe I'm
going to try and sell her for another product or
service, I can do that as well. I've got all this information here. Down below, you may remember
some of the lead information that we set up in Crmble. So it's automatically going
to track the creation date, that's today, so I know when
this contact was created. It was created here within
Crmble, if I want to change that I can do so, and I can say
actually, you know what? We met at the conference here so I'm going to choose other in this case, or I can go and create another source and actually label it conference. And in this case, I'm going to say that
the value of this deal is about $1,500, because I want to track that information and be able to review that
in my Crmble dashboard. In this case, I don't
have to do anything else. I can just close this
card as I would normally. And here you can see, as I
selected in my Crmble interface, I've got Jane Doe, I've
got that information on the front of the card. I can always go back and turn that off or adjust it as I like, but
every time that I come back to this card, I'm going
to have this information waiting for me. On top of that, Crmble makes it very easy for us to integrate with
other Google products. So if I want to directly
email Jane, for example, if I want to see her
other contact information from my existing Google contacts account, I can do so right here. So Crmble makes it really, really easy for us to access the
information that we want. Here in the dashboard view we're starting to see some information after we've entered in our first lead. But if we click on the leads option, on the left-hand side of the menu, we can see the full details of the lead in which we just entered, but it also gives us the ability to both export and import our leads. So let's say that I already
have a collection of leads with their contact information, and I'd like to start managing them here, right within Trello. So I'm going to select this option here, and then I'm going to select the file, which contains my existing leads. So here is my Excel file. And all I need to do at this stage is perhaps map a few of my fields. So for example, I can see
that these are the lists, or the headers, in which I
have within that Excel file, I just need to map them to
my existing Crmble fields. So name is to name, surname,
we've got phone number, most of these are straightforward and you can double check them at any time. Of course, some of them, for example, my spreadsheet doesn't
contain birthday information so that's not going to be listed here in this particular case. I do have a source field so
I'm going to add that as well. When everything looks great, all I need to do is select continue, hit continue once a again, and now I can double check,
and it looks like, yes, everything is in the format that I want. These are all the contacts I'd
like to import into Crmble. Now that my import is complete I have access to all of
this information here, right within Crmble, and
within my Trello board. In fact, if I select the contacts tab here on the left-hand side, I've got a nice clean way
of viewing that information. So for example, If I want to find out
more about Jesse Green, not only do I have his
contact information here, but I can also see that he's been put into that new leads column,
into that new leads list. Here, back on my Trello board, I have access to all of
that information here, and I can now start to funnel them through my specific workflow. So let's assume that I've been working with this Trello
board for some time and all those new leads
that started out here on the left-hand side, are now spread out amongst my various stages
here within my sales funnel. Not only do I have their contact
information available to me at a click, and remember
the name of the card does not need to be your client, you can name this anything that you want, but I always have their
information nested here within their specific card. And I can keep track of
their deal values as well. Here, when I go back
to my Crmble dashboard, we've got great information
staring back at us. So I can see the total value of the deals available in my queue, I can see the percentages
which have been followed up or closed or which are
on a discovery call, I can even see all that source
information here as well. And if I want to, I can filter
by these categories as well. So I can see if things are moving the way I would assume,
moving the way that I want to. But let's go back to our
Trello board for just a moment because the real power of Crmble is that you can repurpose
these contacts as well. So let's say someone
like Jesse, for example, who I sold to in the past,
is now up for a new deal. He's interested in purchasing
something else from me. So I'm not going to call him a new lead. I'm going to say that we're
going to reach out to him this week. So I'm going to say, add a card. I'm going to say this, a new big deal, because maybe I've never
had a returning customer at this point. I'm going to click on this card and I can add all of my
regular Trello information that I want, but in this case, I'm not going to reenter
Jesse's information. I already have it in my CRM database. All I need to do is select
add from my contacts and I can either select from this list, but let's presume that I
have many in this list. I'm going to search for Jesse,
I'm going to select Jesse, and now bingo, it's attached
right here to this card. This is a new deal. So I'm going to say that it is a walk-in, it's a returning walk-in customer. The creation date stays
the same as of today. And this deal is maybe $5,700. I can now close it and I've
got all that information available to me and I can
continue to track the total value of this customer as well. And keep in mind, as long
as you have Crmble installed on other Trello boards, you can access your same
Crmble CRM database. So if you have a separate
board for separate products or separate services, you can still access and use those clients
across multiple boards. So if you want to turn your Trello boards into a fully functional CRM system, be sure to check out Crmble. check out the link in
the description below for more details. Remember, being productive
does not need to be difficult. In fact, it's very simple.
