Client Tags & Interaction Timeline

Organise clients with colour-coded tags and keep a timeline of every interaction.

Tags and timelines help you remember context about each client — who they are, what they need, and your history with them.

Tags

Tags are colour-coded labels you can assign to clients. They appear as chips on the client card and detail page. Common tag ideas:

  • VIP — high-value repeat customers
  • Wholesale — bulk buyers who get different pricing
  • Etsy / Shopify — clients from specific sales channels
  • Local — clients who pick up in person
  • Slow payer — clients who need payment reminders

To add a tag, edit the client and type in the tag input. Existing tags autocomplete as you type, and new tags are created automatically. Tags get assigned a colour automatically.

Interaction Timeline

The interaction timeline on each client's page records every touchpoint. Add entries for:

  • Note — general notes about the client or project
  • Call — phone call summaries
  • Email — important email exchanges
  • Meeting — in-person or video meeting notes

Each entry is timestamped and shows who added it. This gives you a complete history of your relationship with each client — invaluable when they come back months later with a new project.
