Frequently asked questions
Before you submit a brief
You do not need a finished specification. Share what you know, identify open questions and ask specialists to state their assumptions.
Can a specialist help choose a CRM?
Yes. Explain the users, process, data, integrations and reporting needs so recommendations can be tied to operational requirements.
Can I get help with an existing automation setup?
Yes. Include current tools, workflow diagrams if available, recurring failures and which records or automations must be preserved.
Should data migration be part of the brief?
Yes. Identify the sources, approximate record types, required history, duplicate issues and who can verify the migrated data.
Who is responsible for communication compliance?
The business and chosen specialist should agree on consent, opt-out and record-keeping requirements. GrowthBrief does not provide legal advice.
