How do consultants use Slateo?

Last updated:

Consultants and consulting firms use Slateo to run client engagements end to end. Proposals move from drafting to won or lost, research and deliverables each have their own stages, and nothing reaches the client before an internal review. Notes and reports live in documents linked to the client, and the engagement is invoiced from the same workspace.

Delivery

See where every deliverable stands

Each engagement gets a board with stages like Discovery, Client Review and Delivered. Switch to List or Calendar view to see what's due this week across every client.

Working documents

Notes and reports next to the work

Write interview notes, findings and reports in Docs with tables and @mentions, and link them to the client. The document assistant turns meeting notes into suggested tasks you add in one go.

Billing

Invoice the engagement when it's done

Create an invoice from the client's record or a won deal, add line items with tax and a discount, and email it with your logo on the PDF. Record payments as they come in and see what's still owed.

Invoicing →

Questions

Is there a template for consulting firms?

Yes. Choose Consulting Firm when you create a project. Slateo sets up workstreams for client projects, deliverables, research and analysis, and proposals, each with its own stages.

Can I invoice clients from Slateo?

Yes. Create invoices with line items, tax and discounts, email them with the PDF attached, and record full or partial payments.

Does Slateo track billable hours?

No. Slateo has no time tracking. Add the hours or fees as line items on the invoice.

Can clients log in to see progress?

Not yet. Slateo has no client portal, so send updates and invoices to the client by email.
