Starting point

The challenge

This property business was growing quickly, but deals were tracked in spreadsheets, follow-up was manual and the team spent too much time chasing paperwork. It needed infrastructure that could scale with the business rather than another disconnected tool.

What wasn't working

  • Deal tracking scattered across spreadsheets and inboxes
  • Manual follow-up dependent on team availability
  • No clear view of pipeline health or conversion
  • Admin bottlenecks slowing deals down

What we did

The work

  1. 01

    End-to-end deal tracking

    • Every deal tracked from first enquiry to settlement
    • Automated stage progression and task assignment
    • Pipeline visibility across the whole team
  2. 02

    Automated follow-up

    • Multi-channel follow-up (SMS and email) triggered by deal stage
    • Consistent follow-up that doesn't depend on memory
  3. 03

    Sales operations

    • Workflows matching the business's sales process
    • Automated document collection and status updates
    • Team dashboards showing where every deal stands
  4. 04

Results

What was reported

Results reflect the whole business — its market, team, offer and decisions — not Evolve's work alone, and they aren't a forecast for other businesses. See our earnings and results disclaimer.

  • Sales commissions reported at $7.9M, up from $700K, over 2.5 years
  • The same core team handled the growth
  • Pipeline, attribution and performance visible at every stage
“What Evolve built for us isn't marketing. It's infrastructure. We couldn't run at this scale without it.”
