A CRM (Client Relationship Management) tool is the central operating system/software of your entire business operation. Without a proper CRM you’ll be:
- Duck-taping disjointed tools.
- Overpaying.
- Using tools intended for large teams.
- Giving your clients an inconsistent experience.
- Losing track of what’s important.
- Forgetting to properly follow up.
- Closing less deals.

Here’s how it works: An all-in-one CRM connects all your client touch-points in a beautiful and consistent brand experience. If you want to offer a premium service, using the right tools is imperative.

BUT finding the right CRM for your creative business can be a challenge. Popular CRMs are built for large sales teams, not creative professionals.

Recently, our team discovered a modern platform called Bloom, and we think it’s an effective solution for freelancers and small independent businesses. Even more, we were able to work out a deal for our community to get you 30% off using promo code: FUTUR30.

Here are some benefits of using Bloom:
- It connects your client journey into a beautiful branded experience.
- If you don’t have a website, Bloom features simple and easy to build portfolio pages. Here’s an example.
- Great for capturing leads: Beautiful forms, and an embeddable live chat widget.
- It has an incredible high altitude project workflow feature. You can view all of your projects and see what’s next for each one, from one screen.
- Getting paid is a game changer with Bloom. You can integrate nearly every payment platform, including Stripe, Square, Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, Paypal, etc. It allows you to send incredibly clean and professional invoices.
- Contract signing is included and you can even add them to your invoices for a one-click booking experience. Here’s an example of what the Bloom payment page looks like.
- You can manage your calendar, schedule meetings, and even create automated emails.
