Set Up Simple CRM & Automation System

I run a small accommodation matching business and need help setting up a simple, low-cost CRM and workflow automation system. At the moment, I have a WordPress website with enquiry forms using Google Forms. Responses go into Google Sheets. My business email is Microsoft Outlook. I am finding it too time-consuming to manually manage enquiries, update spreadsheets, track follow-ups, write similar emails, and create booking confirmation documents and host/guest summary forms. I do not want a complex or expensive CRM. I need a practical system that is easy for me to use and maintain. The system should help me manage: * Candidate enquiries * Host enquiries * Bookings * Follow-ups * Daily tasks * Outlook email drafts * Booking confirmation documents * Host/guest summary documents Ideally, I would like: 1. A simple CRM/tracker for candidates, hosts and bookings. 2. Statuses such as new enquiry, needs reply, awaiting response, ready to match, host offered, awaiting payment/details, booking confirmed, active stay, completed and not proceeding. 3. A daily to-do view showing overdue and due-today actions. 4. Fields for priority, next action, follow-up date, last contacted date, notes, area, dates, budget, host offered and booking status. 5. New enquiries from Google Forms/Google Sheets to feed into the system. 6. Outlook email draft templates for common replies. I do not want emails auto-sent without review. 7. Templates for booking confirmation documents and host/guest summaries. 8. A way to populate documents from booking details and save them in an organised folder structure. 9. A simple setup that keeps monthly software costs low. 10. A short guide or video showing me how to use and maintain the system. I am open to suggestions on the best tools, but possible options include Microsoft Lists, Microsoft Planner/To Do, Power Automate, Airtable, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, Word templates or Google Docs templates. I would like someone who can recommend the best low-cost setup and build the first version. Please quote a fixed price and explain: * What system/tools you recommend * Why you recommend them * What will be included * How long it will take * What information you need from me * Any monthly software costs * Whether I will be able to manage it myself afterwards I want a simple, practical first version rather than a complicated custom system.

Seeking eCommerce Beta Testers

Beta Tester - Optagen Portal & Integrations What you’re testing The Optagen portal lets you manage multiple stores by bringing together data from your commerce, analytics, accounting, inventory, and CRM systems. It creates a single ranked action list, with each recommendation labeled for trust and checked against real results. We need beta testers to use the portal with real store data and identify what breaks, what’s slow, what’s missing, and what doesn’t match reality. Integration coverage required You will test syncing and data accuracy across these integrations: Commerce platforms: Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Etsy Analytics: Google Analytics 4, Search Console Shipping/3PL: ShipBob, ShipStation, Easyship Inventory systems: Cin7, Katana Accounting: QuickBooks, Xero Marketing/CRM: Klaviyo You don’t need to use every integration—just test the ones you already use. We’re aiming for each tester to cover at least 3 or 4 integrations from different categories. What we’re asking 1. Sync completeness: Check if all the expected fields from each integration show up in the portal. Are SKU, pricing, margin, sales, traffic, inventory, and competitor data there? 2. Refresh latency: See how long it takes for changes in your source system (like a price update in Shopify or a GA4 event) to show up in the ranked plan. 3. Data accuracy: Choose 5 to 10 data points you can check in both your source system and Optagen. Do they match? 4. Signal read accuracy: The portal calculates metrics such as AI visibility, SKU margins, demand signals, returns concentration, pricing elasticity, and competitor share of voice. Check these against your store. Do they make sense? Can you find the data sources if you look for them? 5. Ranked plan stability: Run the same store scan twice in one week. Does the ranked plan update based on new data, or does it stay the same? Are the revenue-impact numbers realistic? What we’re not asking * Testing the governed execution agent (scheduled to ship later; currently in development) * Load testing or scale testing * Security testing or pen testing * UX/design feedback (we’ll gather that separately) Timeline and access * Beta runs from [DATE] to [DATE] * You’ll get portal access for your own stores, using your real data—not test data. * We’ll keep an eye on logs and collect diagnostics if something fails. Please report any issues as they happen via a feedback button. * We’ll have a weekly sync call to talk about any blockers or patterns you notice. Who should apply * You run 1-5 stores across 2+ of these platforms. * You can verify data accuracy (you know your actual margins, traffic, and sales numbers) * You’re willing to spend 2-4 hours per week auditing sync health and data correctness. * You’re okay with bugs and incomplete features since this is a beta test. When you apply, please indicate: * Which platforms you currently use (Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Etsy etc.) * Rough store size (monthly revenue or annual, average order value, SKU count) * Any specific data quality concerns you have with your current setup

Create automated planning application spreadsheet

I am looking for someone to create an automated spreadsheet/report that pulls the previous week’s UK planning applications from the UK PlanIt data/API. The purpose of the report is to help identify potential trade opportunities for builders, loft conversion companies, kitchen/renovation firms, roofers and other home improvement trades. I need the spreadsheet to be refreshable each week, so I can update it with the latest planning applications and then export or share the data with ChatGPT for analysis. What I need is a spreadsheet system, ideally in Google Sheets or Excel, that can: 1. Pull planning application data from UK PlanIt. 2. Refresh the report weekly to show the previous 7 days of applications. 3. Cover all UK counties / planning areas, not just one local authority. 4. Handle multiple planning authorities within each county where needed. 5. Pull clean, structured data into a spreadsheet. 6. Allow me to filter by county, planning authority, date, application type and likely trade opportunity. 7. Create summary tabs that make the data easy to review. 8. Be simple enough for a non-technical user to refresh each week. **Important functionality required:** The spreadsheet should include: * A refresh button or clear refresh process. * A date range selector, ideally defaulting to the last 7 days. * County / area filtering. * Planning authority filtering. * Keyword filtering for relevant trade opportunities. * Automatic categorisation where possible, for example: * Extensions * Loft conversions * Garage conversions * Renovations/refurbishments * Kitchens * Roofing * Outbuildings * Commercial fit-outs * Other building works * A clean export tab that can be copied into ChatGPT for analysis. * Basic error handling if the API limit is reached or if a request fails. * A simple instruction tab explaining how I refresh and use the report. **Suggested spreadsheet tabs:** 1. **Instructions** Simple user guide explaining how to refresh the data and use the spreadsheet. 2. **Settings / Control Panel** Date range, counties/areas to include, keywords, refresh controls and any API settings. 3. **Raw Planning Applications** The unedited data pulled from PlanIt. 4. **Cleaned Applications** Clean version of the data with standardised columns. 5. **Trade Categorisation** Applications categorised by likely trade relevance. 6. **County Summary** Number of opportunities by county and trade type. 7. **Planning Authority Summary** Number of opportunities by local authority. 8. **ChatGPT Export** A clean tab designed specifically so I can copy/export the data and ask ChatGPT to analyse it. **Required data fields:** Where available from PlanIt, I would like the spreadsheet to include: * Application name/reference * Planning authority * County / area * Application start date * Address * Description * Application type * Development type * Status * Decision, if available * Applicant / agent details, if available * Link to planning application * Latitude / longitude, if available * Last scraped / last changed date * Suggested trade category * Opportunity score, if possible **Trade opportunity scoring:** Ideally, I would like a simple scoring system to highlight the best opportunities. For example: * High relevance: extension, loft conversion, conversion, major renovation * Medium relevance: alterations, outbuildings, roof works, garage conversion * Low relevance: tree works, signage, minor admin applications, discharge of conditions I am happy for the freelancer to suggest the best scoring approach. **Technical requirements:** The freelancer should be comfortable working with: * APIs * Google Sheets Apps Script and/or Excel Power Query * CSV/JSON data imports * Pagination * Rate limits * Data cleaning * Building refreshable dashboards/reports The PlanIt API has paging and request limits, so the system must be built responsibly and should not rely on one huge request. **End goal:** Each week I want to be able to refresh the spreadsheet, see the latest planning applications across all counties, identify the best trade opportunities, and then ask ChatGPT to analyse the data by county, trade type and opportunity quality. **Deliverables:** 1. A working Google Sheet or Excel workbook. 2. Automated or semi-automated weekly refresh process. 3. All required tabs and filters. 4. Clean data structure ready for ChatGPT analysis. 5. Simple instructions for use. 6. A short handover call or written walkthrough. 7. Notes on any limitations of the PlanIt API or recommended future improvements. **Please include in your response:** * Whether you recommend Google Sheets or Excel for this. * Examples of similar API/spreadsheet automation work. * How you would handle all counties and multiple planning authorities. * How you would manage API limits and pagination. * Estimated delivery time. * Fixed price quote.
