What was the core problem you wanted to solve?

At the end of November 2018, I unexpectedly fell ill and was diagnosed with a brain tumor. My perspective in all areas of my life changed.

I realized I needed to systemize all operations in my business so my team could continue everything in my absence. In the space of 6 weeks of using Tallyfy, I have created templates for every aspect of the business. The team now know exactly what tasks and actions they should be completing and at what time and date.

My team can finally work to their full potential. Tallyfy has brought transparency and structure in our entire organization.

Fast forwarding to six weeks, I am writing this in early January 2019, I have had some wonderful news - the tumor is benign and all things being positive I should be around for several years to come.

Tallyfy has been my saving grace, it is amazing!

Can you list the names of processes you run on Tallyfy?

We have used Tallyfy to systemize internal and client-facing processes:

How was your company doing these tasks and processes before?

We used Google Sheets and relied on assigning and tracking tasks inside our CRM software. In all honesty, spreadsheets and tasks in the CRM did not work well, things would invariably get missed.

What other software did you evaluate before you chose Tallyfy?

CRMs help us find information and communications with a client in one place, they do not outline and track the actual work that needs to be done after we win a client. We needed a dedicated task and process management tool that would trigger and track tasks that need to be done for each new account without reinventing the wheel each time for every new project.

How has Tallyfy impacted your business?

It has only been a few weeks since we systemized our business using Tallyfy and I can already see an improvement in the team’s productivity. We are now able to outsource more and more work. I am confident that Tallyfy will continue to make a positive impact on the future of our business.
