Who can benefit from this spreadsheet?
Anyone who makes sales but doesn’t use CRM can benefit from this spreadsheet.
Tracking sales is crucial for several reasons, such as understanding your loyal customers and managing relationships better, monitoring monthly sales and growth, and identifying the most popular products, and the most popular payment processor. It doesn’t matter if you sell products or services; you can easily customize the list to suit your business needs.
How many customers can this sheet handle?
There is no specific limit, but if you have hundreds or thousands of customers, you should switch to CRM software instead of a spreadsheet. The original design can accommodate up to 60 customers and 60 products, but you can add more fields as needed.
How do I customize the list?
All the data for the lists is divided into 4 sheets, edit or add products/customers to customize the lists. For example, you can change “Customer name” in the Customer sheet to an actual customer name.
