Using Marloo as your CRM: client records, households, tasks and pipeline

How to use Marloo as your CRM: the client record, getting clients in, tasks, pipelines, workflows and what is coming soon.

Written by Liam McGuire

Marloo is an AI CRM for financial advice firms, so your clients live in Marloo, whether it replaces your current CRM or works alongside it. This guide covers how the client record works, how clients get in, tasks, pipelines and workflows.

How the client record works

Every client has a record in Client View. Click Clients in the left sidebar and select a client to open it. The record has these tabs:

A client record shows tabs for Overview, Finances, Tasks, Meetings, Notes, Files and Emails.
  • Overview, Finances, Tasks, Meetings, Notes, Files, Emails, Documents, Slides and Forms. If a tab isn't visible, open More.

    The More menu reveals the Documents, Slides and Forms tabs.

Your work files itself onto the record as you go:

  • Meetings: meetings on Zoom, Teams and Google Meet are recorded, and the notes are logged to the client. In-person meetings are recorded on the mobile app.

  • Emails: connect Outlook or Gmail and client emails file onto the client's Emails tab. Setup is in Calendar Integration.

  • Accounts: connected account data is updated daily.

Each tab is explained in How Client View works in Marloo. Ask Marloo answers questions across your whole book, and from a single client's profile.

Households

You can group related clients into a household, and merge or split records to fix duplicates. The steps are in Create, group, merge or split client records.

Get your clients in

Moving from another CRM is a one-time import. CRM migration is free, and Marloo's team can move your data the same day. Follow Move your clients to Marloo from another CRM. Marloo imports from other CRMs; it doesn't keep syncing with them afterward.

Tasks

Marloo creates tasks from your meeting summaries, and they appear on the client's Tasks tab. To reuse a standard process, go to Templates > Tasks > New task template. Enter your task details and subtasks, then click Create template.

The empty task template dialog has fields for details, dates, priority and subtasks, and a Create template button.

How tasks are generated, assigned and managed is in Tasks.

Pipelines

Pipelines hold the stages for your prospects and clients, so you can see where each one is.

Workflows

A scheduled chat works as a workflow. Set Marloo to run a task on a schedule, and it covers most of what firms want to automate. A trigger-based workflow system is coming in early December.

What's coming soon

  • Trigger-based workflows, in early December.

  • Modelling and a client portal.

These are not available today.
