Expected duration: Not sure I am seeking a developer with significant experience in building database-driven applications using Softr.
I run a small CRM consulting firm – and offer a range of consulting and application development services to my clients. This project building an online application as an extension to our current offerings.
We expect that the overall application will be delivered over the course of multiple phases. For now, our primary focus is on Phase 1 and Phase 2, with the following scope:
PHASE 1 Develop a public-facing website to promote a specific CRM-related advisory service. The site should feature: • A professionally designed, engaging webpage that encourages visitors to sign up (register) for our service. • Upon signup, they will be presented with a form containing 20–25 questions about their business and requirements. • The system will process the form data by sending it to ChatGPT, generate a PDF report based on ChatGPT’s responses, and then automatically email the report to the client. PHASE 2 Create an online directory showcasing market-leading CRM products: • Products will be organized into specific categories (Sales, Marketing, Services, Analytics, etc). • Visitors will be able to submit feedback and ratings for products they’ve used. • The directory will be monetized through affiliate links. • Only administrators will have the ability to create and manage product listings.
PHASE 2 Add a blogging section to publish articles on various CRM topics, and link them to relevant products in the directory where appropriate. In doing so, any blogs articles that relate to a particular product will appear on the listing page of the product.
FUTURE PHASES (FOR CONTEXT) • Phase 4: Develop an online directory of CRM consultants and experts, including both firms/agencies and individual freelancers. Initially, listings will be basic in ature, but we plan to offer paid featured listings for enhanced visibility in the near future. • Phase 5: If the platform proves successful, introduce functionality for businesses to post projects, thereby generating leads that we could potentially sell to agencies or freelancers.
