Pipedrive CRM Partner

Pipedrive CRM consulting,
implementation & automation

Growing B2B sales teams lose deals in messy pipelines — no structure, broken follow-ups, zero visibility. We help businesses design, implement and automate Pipedrive CRM: structured pipelines, clean deal tracking and automation your team will actually use.

Open by default

Your AI, in your CRM. Without the SaaS-AI lock-in.

Your team already pays for Claude or ChatGPT. We build the MCPs and agents that let them operate your Pipedrive directly — not summarise it, run it. The opinion is our years of Pipedrive setup experience, baked into the tool surface your AI calls. Runs in your account, never ours.

Why Pipedrive CRM

Pipedrive CRM for sales teams — what it does

Pipedrive gives you a visual pipeline, structured deal records and built-in automation — but only if it’s configured correctly. Without the right setup, teams revert to spreadsheets within weeks.

Visual pipeline

Track every deal across custom stages with a clear, drag-and-drop pipeline tailored to your sales cycle.

Customer records

Keep contacts, organisations, deal history and communication organised in one structured place.

Sales reporting

Understand where deals are won or lost with pipeline reporting, activity tracking and conversion analytics.

Workflow automation

Automate reminders, ownership changes, follow-up tasks and deal stage updates so nothing falls through.

What we do

Pipedrive CRM implementation services — full scope

From first setup to full integration — we cover every part of a Pipedrive implementation, migration or optimisation project.

01

Pipedrive setup & pipeline configuration

We configure your Pipedrive workspace from scratch — deal stages, custom fields, pipeline logic, activity types and permission settings — based on how your sales team actually works, not a generic SaaS template.

Pipeline setupCustom fieldsPermissionsActivity types
02

CRM data migration

We migrate your contacts, organisations, deals and activities from spreadsheets, HubSpot, Salesforce or any other CRM into a clean, structured Pipedrive setup — without losing history or creating duplicates.

03

Sales workflow automation

We build automations inside Pipedrive for follow-up reminders, ownership changes, deal stage updates and internal notifications. For more complex logic, we connect Pipedrive with Make or Zapier workflows.

Why Metawork Studio

Why choose Metawork Studio as your Pipedrive CRM consultant

Getting Pipedrive live is easy. Getting your team to adopt it — and keeping it clean six months later — is the hard part. That’s where we focus.

  • Process-first approach. We map your sales flow before touching any settings — pipelines match how you actually sell.

  • No black boxes. Everything we build is documented. Your team understands what each automation does and why.

  • Migration experience. We've migrated teams from HubSpot, Salesforce and spreadsheets without losing deal history.

  • Beyond Pipedrive. We connect CRM with the rest of your stack — accounting, documents, marketing, internal tools.

  • Ongoing partnership. We stay involved after launch — optimising the setup as your business grows.

«Before Metawork, our Pipedrive had 3 pipelines nobody used and a graveyard of stale deals. Now the team actually logs their activity because the system makes sense.»

02

CRM setup

We configure your Pipedrive workspace: pipelines, fields, activities, automations and permissions — built around how your team actually works.

03

Validation & enablement

We test the setup, review imports, check automation logic and make sure your team knows how to use the system before go-live.

04

Rollout & improvement

We launch the setup, support adoption and continue refining the system as your workflow, reporting needs and team grow.

Common questions

FAQ

How long does a typical Pipedrive setup take?

Most Pipedrive projects take between two and six weeks, depending on the complexity of your pipelines, custom fields, automations, integrations and data migration requirements. We give a clear timeline estimate after the initial process review.

Can you migrate our existing data into Pipedrive?

Yes. We migrate contacts, organisations, deals, activities and deal history from spreadsheets or from other CRM platforms including HubSpot, Salesforce and Zoho. We clean, deduplicate and structure the data before import.

Can you improve an existing Pipedrive account?

Yes. We work on existing accounts just as often as new ones — cleaning up pipelines, restructuring fields, fixing broken automations and improving daily usability without disrupting the data already in the system.

Do you help with automations and integrations?

Yes. We configure workflow automations inside Pipedrive and build connections with external tools using native integrations, Make, Zapier or direct API connections. The complexity depends on your stack and process requirements.

Do you provide support after the initial setup?

Yes. After launch we offer ongoing support for training, process improvements, additional integrations and system optimisation. Many clients keep us on a retainer as their business and Pipedrive setup evolve together.

Do you work with specific industries?

We've worked with B2B service companies, agencies, SaaS businesses, financial services, healthcare and logistics teams. Every setup starts with understanding your specific sales process — not a generic template.

Automation mandatory

Make.com wires Pipedrive/HubSpot to email, accounting, phone, and other tools. It sits between systems and moves data when something happens. Priced on executions, not seats — accounts are free, running them costs.

We build enterprise-grade, 24/7 AI agents in Make — substantially more reliable than agents running inside Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini: deterministic tool calls, real execution logs, retry + error handling, and every integration your CRM speaks.

Optional
Apollo

Reach net-new prospects through cold email sequences and automated follow-ups. Stand-alone category from LinkedIn outreach below. — One seat covers automated outreach. Add a seat per rep if your team will actively work inboxes and send manual follow-ups.

Lemlist

Connection requests, InMails, and multichannel cadences combining LinkedIn with email. Complements (not replaces) email outreach above. — One seat can drive automations on a single LinkedIn account. Add seats so each rep can run from their own LinkedIn profile.

Cloud-phone systems for outbound and inbound calls — number rental, call recording, CRM activity logging, team queues. — Call-centre teams often sit outside the CRM scope — agents dial all day without ever logging in. Set seats to match your call-centre headcount, not your CRM user count.

Team-wide AI chat + coding + document workflows. Business tiers kick in automatically once you reach 5+ seats. Gemini isn’t offered as a standalone SKU anymore — it ships bundled with Google Workspace Business+.

Email, calendar, documents, and shared drives — the baseline every business needs. Priced per seat, one per employee.
