### Never lose a deal to disorganization

Tech deals rarely move in a straight line. Champions go quiet, procurement appears out of nowhere, and IT needs a security review two weeks before close. Nutshell gives you complete account visibility—every stakeholder, conversation, and deal stage in one place.

When a deal gets complicated, your team doesn’t scramble. They already know who’s involved, what’s been said, and exactly where things stand.

- **Multi-stakeholder tracking:** Log every contact tied to an account—champions, IT, finance, and end users  
- **Full communication timeline:** Every email, call, and note logged automatically  
- **Pipeline stage alerts:** Get notified when deals stall so you can act before it’s too late

### Move faster from demo to close

The window between a prospect signing up for a demo and losing interest is short. Nutshell automates the follow-up work that keeps deals warm—triggered emails after demo sign-ups, nurture sequences for trial users, and pipeline updates when key actions happen.

Your reps spend less time on admin and more time actually selling. And with a built-in meeting scheduler, booking a demo never requires a back-and-forth email chain.

- **Trial & demo pipelines:** Custom stages built for your product-led or sales-led motion  
- **Automated sequences:** Trigger personalized emails and tasks based on prospect behavior  
- **Meeting scheduler:** Let prospects book demos instantly from any page or email

### Align your entire revenue team

When sales, marketing, and RevOps work from the same platform, deals move faster and fewer fall through the cracks. Nutshell gives every team shared visibility into the pipeline, lead sources, and customer history—no expensive add-ons or complex configurations required.

Built-in email marketing and lead attribution mean your marketing team works in the same tool your sales team lives in. No more passing spreadsheets between platforms.

- **Shared pipeline visibility:** Everyone sees the same deals, stages, and activity in real time  
- **Built-in marketing tools:** Run campaigns and track lead attribution from the same platform  
- **@mentions & internal notes:** Keep cross-functional teams in the loop on any deal or account

- **Lead attribution:** See exactly which channels and campaigns drive your highest-converting leads  
- **Pipeline & forecast reports:** Track deal velocity and predict revenue with confidence
