Contacts linked to the places they own
PropelMapper keeps every grower, landlord, tenant and dairy owner linked to the places they own or work, with their calls, mail, visits and open tasks in one history, so the next conversation starts where the last one ended.
Linking contacts to farms and fields
Most contact lists are a name, a number and maybe a company. That works until the call that matters: the landlord asking about the tile outlet, the tenant who wants to know when the soil results land, the son who is taking over the account and needs to see what his father agreed to.
In PropelMapper a contact is linked to places. Anna Kessler is the landlord at Jorgensen Family Farms; Dale Jorgensen operates it. Open either one and the farm, its visits, the reports they received and the tasks still open are on the same page. Open the farm and both of them are there, with their roles.
We think contacts that are not next to the places they own are a phone book. Useful, but it cannot tell you who to call about the wet corner.
Call: what you said and what the report says
A relationship note recorded after a call, saved to the contact's timeline.
“Called Gary at Hillcrest. He wants the herd report before Friday because the vet's coming Monday. Also asked about the fresh pen bedding, said he'd think about switching to sand.”

Contact activity history
A contact's page has their places, their visits, their tasks and an activity history. Log a call, a meeting or a note against them, typed or as a voice note that PropelMapper transcribes onto the timeline. Set a next step and a date. The next advisor to pick up the account reads it top to bottom and knows where things stand.
Preferences sit on the contact too, including anyone who has asked not to be contacted, and PropelMapper reminds you to check them before emailing.
Gmail and Outlook mail on the contact
Connect your Gmail or Outlook and PropelMapper reads, never sends, the mail between you and your client contacts, and files it on their history and their places. Mail that is not with a client is never kept. Each person connects their own mailbox, and the connection is switched on per team.
When a contact has mail that is not yet filed to one of their places, it shows as unfiled on their row, and the Unfiled mail tab on the Contacts list gathers those contacts so you can file it.
Using PropelMapper as a farm CRM
Plenty of teams keep a separate CRM and use PropelMapper for the field side. That works. But for a lot of advisory and sales teams in agriculture the CRM exists mostly to remember who owns what, what was said and what comes next, and that is exactly what this page already holds, with the visit behind every line.
The Contacts list has the views a sales lead expects: all contacts, your own, those that need a follow-up, those with open items, and those with no place linked yet. Add a stage, link contacts into accounts, and move places through the pipeline. Import a CSV of contacts to start, and export it again whenever you want.

Rebecca J.Atmosphere Global Questions about contacts
Can PropelMapper replace our CRM?
For some teams, yes: contacts, accounts, activity, mail, tasks and a pipeline of places are all here, tied to the visits. Teams that keep another CRM use PropelMapper for the field side and export contacts as CSV.
Does PropelMapper send email from my account?
No. The Gmail and Outlook connections are read-only. PropelMapper files mail with your client contacts and keeps nothing else.
Who it’s for
Livestock and seed sales teams, farm managers with landlords and tenants on every farm, vet and nutrition practices with owners and herd managers, and any advisory team that has been running its client list out of a spreadsheet.
