I developed a comprehensive ClickUp CRM system designed to manage leads efficiently from initial contact to client conversion. This system tracks every lead in the leads record, automatically generates and sends proposals, and schedules follow-up emails. Once a lead is successfully closed, the system creates a detailed client record with all relevant data. Additionally, it automates reminder emails based on specific requirements, ensuring timely communication and seamless workflow management throughout the sales process.

The problem it solves

Every freelance designer knows the feeling — someone fills out your intake form, and suddenly you're the bottleneck. Writing follow-ups, sending confirmations, drafting reminders, chasing proposals. The work before the work.

I built the Client Intake Agent to handle all of it.

What it does

A 9-step automated pipeline that runs from the moment a lead submits an inquiry to the moment they receive a proposal — with the right things automated and the right things kept as drafts for human review.

→ New intake submission → agent drafts a branded Gmail follow-up with portfolio examples matched to the client's service request → Lead books a call → confirmation email auto-sends instantly → Day before the meeting → reminder auto-sends at 7am → After the call → agent drafts the proposal, contract, and deposit invoice when you're ready

Why it's reusable

The agent is built as a template — not tied to one person's data. Anyone can duplicate it, swap in their booking link, populate their portfolio database, and run the same workflow in under an hour. The instructions include a full constants block, defined status values, and copy-paste prompts to get started immediately.

Judging criteria — how this entry maps

— Clarity of use case: Freelance designer, client intake, first inquiry to signed proposal — Quality of instructions: Step-by-step pipeline, named triggers, send rules, guardrails, status definitions, and fallback logic — Reliability and safety: Human review on every client-facing email except confirmations and reminders — where timing matters and content never changes — Impact: Eliminates the highest-friction part of freelance ops — the first 72 hours after a lead reaches out — Craft: Branded emails, STAR-format portfolio database, placeholder links for DocuSign and QuickBooks, and a clean setup guide anyone can follow

I built this fully functional frontend prototype in under 24 hours using Figma Make. ✨

From first idea to a working web experience with real user input and a complete frontend flow.

The concept: An app that lets you send personalized digital posters to someone on a flight, displayed directly on their seat screen. You can even enhance the moment with real world surprises delivered during the flight.

Bringing a bit of emotion and connection into a place that usually feels pretty distant.

Really enjoying what’s possible with Figma Make right now. Curious what you think about the idea. 👀
