Why 40% of CRM Notes Never Get Written

Every sales rep knows the feeling: after a long day of customer calls, demos, and negotiations, there's still CRM maintenance waiting. Typing notes, updating deals, creating contacts. No wonder studies show that 40% of all meeting notes never get written.

71% of sales reps find manual CRM data entry frustrating. 5.5 hours per week spent on CRM maintenance by the average sales rep. 28% of work time goes to administrative tasks — time that's missing for selling.

The problem isn't with sales reps — it's with how CRMs work. HubSpot, Salesforce & Co. are powerful tools, but they were built for data managers, not for field sales reps.

What if CRM updates were as easy as sending a voice message to a colleague? That's exactly what SpeakToMyCRM enables. The result: 10x faster than typing, and the notes actually get written.
