I built a dead-simple CRM for solo salespeople — just launched

The “built for teams, not individuals” point is a real wedge. A lot of CRMs feel like they assume a manager is watching a pipeline, not one person just trying to remember who to follow up with.

I’d be curious which feature people actually use first: drag/drop pipeline, reminders, or notes/history. My guess is reminders if the target is solo salespeople.

Lovely product.

I'd separate two things that both get called "simple": fewer features vs. fewer decisions. What exhausts a solo user in HubSpot isn't the feature count — it's being asked to decide which pipeline, which stage names, which fields. On my own minimal iOS app the most-loved "feature" turned out to be a default that quietly removed a choice nobody wanted to make. A Kanban tracker wins by deciding more for you out of the box, not just doing less. Did you ship Dealpad with opinionated default stages, or let people build their own?

Nice clean home page. Simple wins.

Clean execution. I like the “solo-first CRM” positioning.

One thing I’ve noticed with these tools is the real challenge isn’t tracking deals, it’s maintaining consistency in follow-ups over time without the user actively managing the system every day.

Curious how you’re thinking about preventing it from becoming just another “manual update app” after the initial excitement wears off?

The "dead-simple" positioning is hard to stick to once users start requesting features. What's your rule for deciding what NOT to build? Curious how you're drawing the line.

Solo salespeople are honestly the most underserved segment in the CRM space — most tools are built for teams with way more features than one person needs. Love the focused approach here.

This is a clean wedge. Most CRMs add structure for managers, reporting, teams, permissions, and forecasting, but a solo salesperson mainly needs one thing: know what deals are active, what needs follow-up, and what is likely to close.

The Kanban angle makes sense because it keeps the product close to the way a solo seller actually thinks.

The part I would pressure-test early is the brand frame. Dealpad is clear, but it also sounds very close to a lightweight deal board. If the product stays as a simple pipeline tracker, that works. But if you expand into reminders, stats, follow-up logic, prospecting, notes, or AI-assisted sales workflow, the name may start feeling smaller than the product.

Before more Product Hunt traffic, users, and search memory lock in, I’d think about whether the brand should carry the broader solo-sales workspace direction.

Xevoa .com would fit that direction well because it feels more like a modern sales workflow platform than just a place to store deals.

I am open working with you

I appreciate the simplicity of Dealpad, as many solo salespeople can get bogged down in feature-rich CRMs that don't cater to their needs. I've seen similar success with niche digital products, such as the Pine Script strategies we offer at propfirmpinescripts.com, where a focused solution can resonate with a specific audience. What inspired you to choose a Kanban-style pipeline tracker, and do you plan on adding any integrations with popular sales tools in the future?

I appreciate the problem you're trying to solve with Dealpad, as many solo salespeople are indeed overwhelmed by the complexity of traditional CRMs. Your solution's simplicity and focus on essential features like follow-up reminders and weighted pipeline value are likely to resonate with your target audience.
