Teams on Notion

Your Notion workspace started as a wiki and now runs the sales pipeline.

Notion is a good place for docs, meeting notes and lightweight databases, and teams like writing in it. Over time the databases grow into the CRM, the project tracker and the client list, linked by relations and rollups that one person understands. Pages load slowly, filters miss records, and nobody can say which number in the weekly update is right.

For founders and operations leads at companies of 5 to 1,000 people whose CRM, projects or client records grew up inside Notion databases.

Before and after

What changes in a normal week.

Today

  • Leads and clients are added to a Notion database by hand after each call.
  • Relations and rollups break when someone renames a property.
  • Large databases take a long time to load and filtered views miss records.
  • Updating other tools means copying from Notion page by page.

After the build

  • Leads are captured from forms and email and written to the database by a workflow.
  • Properties that other tools depend on are locked down and documented.
  • High-volume records live in Airtable or Supabase, with Notion linking to them.
  • Changes in Notion reach Slack, the CRM or the accounts through the API.

What we build

The systems behind the change.

Built in your accounts, at a fixed price agreed after the audit. Builds start at $1,500.

  • Lead capture into Notion

    Form, inbox and booking data captured, enriched and written to your Notion database with follow-up tasks attached.

  • Data moved to a database that suits it

    Records that outgrew Notion moved to Airtable or Supabase, with views kept in Notion for the people who read them there.

  • Notion connected to the rest

    Status changes in Notion sent to Slack and to the tools that act on them.

  • Answers from your docs

    An assistant that answers staff questions from your Notion pages and names the page it used.

Questions

What people ask first.

Do we have to move off Notion?

No. Docs, meeting notes and small databases stay. We move a database only when its size, or the number of people writing to it, is causing errors.

What happens to our pages and links?

Pages stay where they are. Records that move keep a link from Notion, so the pages people already use still point to the right place.

Could Notion work as our CRM if it were set up properly?

For a small team with a short pipeline, often yes, and we have built lead capture straight into Notion for one. Once several reps write to it and you need routing or forecasting, a CRM such as HubSpot or Attio holds up better.

How much is this?

Connecting Notion to your other tools is a workflow build, from $1,500. Moving a database into a tool of its own with screens for the team is an internal tool, from $3,000. Both are priced fixed after the $500 audit.

Bring one process your team still runs by hand.

On a discovery call we look at how it runs today and tell you what it would take to change it, with a price. The call is free.
