I replied to someone else with a very similar response, but I always thought the awkwardness of Elon giving presentations adds a certain level of sincerity. However, I do agree that some more specifics regarding interior, the bed, etc would have been nice.

Signed, not a Tesla owner :(

To be honest, I reckon the fact that he’s a terrible presenter adds a certain level of charm.
jamesbfb··on Show HN: Micro CRM, a CRM for People Who Hate CRMs
I’ve replied to someone else regarding Odoo, but the CRM addon has this as a default workflow. You can define a pipeline for different sales teams and track sales from leads all the way to acquisition/customer. From there on you can process sales orders, have it tie into manufacturing etc.

Loooong time reader and first time poster.

Everything you mentioned (aside from the business card reading) can be done with Odoo and the CRM addon. You can set up email aliases for different teams which allow you to cc or bcc correspondence directly to Odoo and have it match with existing contacts (or create new ones if need be)

The community edition is FOSS, easily extendable and can be self hosted. Only requires some extra Python packages and Postgres.

Full disclosure: My employer runs Odoo for MRP, CRM, Sales and Purchasing and I am employed to develop and modify these addons. It’s mostly Python and XML/Qweb for the front end but it’s a great platform to develop for.
