What does Leadsales do well?
Leadsales is a CRM for teams that sell over WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger. It brings chats into one inbox, assigns conversations to sellers and organizes them in a pipeline by stage.
For small teams that mostly sell over chat, it is easy to use.
What you would have to add
Payments happen somewhere else
Closing the sale in the pipeline doesn't collect the money. The payment link, payment confirmation and invoice are handled in other tools.
No collections
If the customer owes installments, reminders are sent by hand or with another tool.
