How much does a CRM project cost?
Setup and cleanup jobs for small teams commonly run four figures; migrations with real history run higher because the work is data, not software. The subscription is the small number: the real costs are the setup done properly and the hours your team stops wasting.
The longer answer
In practice.
The three different jobs inside "CRM project"
Fresh setup (configure, import cleanly, train, wire the website in) is the
smallest. Cleanup of a lived-in CRM depends on how long it has been drifting.
Migration is the big one, because history must survive the crossing, per
migrating without losing
data: every migration horror story I have cleaned up started as one done
cheap.
What moves the number
Record volume matters less than record mess: duplicates, wrong merges and
fields nobody trusts all take human judgement to resolve. Integrations are the
other driver: each system wired in (website, accounting, phones, marketing) adds
work once and saves retyping forever.
The spend that gets skipped and shouldn't
Adoption plumbing, per why nobody uses
your CRM: automatic feeding, useful context screens, follow-ups drafted.
Businesses spend on licences and skimp on the part that makes licences worth
paying. Run your own numbers in the
