Vendor management
Organize vendor contacts without a CRM
Call, text, email, and website — structured for referral lists.
Store every vendor with the contact methods people actually use. No bloated CRM fields — just names, categories, service areas, and tap-to-contact buttons on your public page.
The problem
Sound familiar? These are the pain points people search for before they find a better way.
- Contact cards buried in camera roll screenshots
- Clients can't tap to call from a PDF vendor list
- Missing text vs office phone distinction
- No service area field for local recommendations
What you get
Multi-channel contacts
Phone, text line, email, and website per vendor — all tappable on mobile.
Service area
City, state, and coverage notes so people know who serves their area.
Categories
Cleaners, movers, trades, food — group vendors the way people search.
Public vs private notes
