Scenes that feel familiar during concert week
You have plenty of equipment and technical know-how; what gets lost is what was promised for which date.
Three quotes go out for the same date
Everyone wants Saturdays; with three separate quotes open for the same date, it’s not clear which is serious and which is shaky. With no date-based tracking, you promise two jobs at once and end up turning one down at the last minute.
The same system promised to two events
The warehouse line array, moving light set, mixer — how many are there, and where is each one that Saturday? When inventory lives in people’s heads, the same equipment gets booked for two events at once; when the double booking surfaces on the morning of the load-in, there’s no way to make up for it.
Quote revisions without versions
The customer enlarged the stage, changed the lighting count, added a backstage; by the third revision, which quote is valid is being hunted for in the message history. A quote sent with an old version pulls your profit margin below the equipment cost.
Everyone has a different load-in/load-out plan
Loading time, stage access, rehearsal, soundcheck, load-out order — some have it on their phone, some in their head. When the midnight load-in turns into an argument over which case goes in which vehicle, everyone is looking at a different list at an hour when minutes are expensive.
Crew payouts left to a notebook
Who worked how many days on which event, how many load-ins they did, how much they’re owed? Freelance technical crew and daily wages get scattered across notebooks and memory. At month-end settlement, the “I was on that job too” argument breaks out.
Deposits and balances not visible on the calendar
Was the deposit collected, is the balance to be collected before the event, has the payment receipt come in? When the payment plans of dozens of events get scattered in peak season, cases where the equipment has gone out but the balance was never collected are only noticed afterward.
What does ÖzgürKod do for sound, lighting and stage companies?
It brings date-based quotes, equipment inventory, load-in/load-out tasks and crew payouts together in one flow.
The customer journey from first request to teardown
- Record every request from WhatsApp, phone and web forms on the customer card with a source tag; let AI classify requests and flag urgency, and outside business hours let the chatbot ask for the event date and stage size and open a pre-registration
- Send the quote as a PDF; add the event date to the card and version every change with Preparing → Sent → Approved/Revise status — so the pipeline clearly shows which of the quotes for the same date is valid
- Keep equipment such as line arrays, moving lights and mixers in the product catalog with stock counts; record which set is assigned to which event and check at a glance to guard against double bookings
- Set up a task board for every event: work through loading, load-in, rehearsal, soundcheck and load-out steps as a checklist; keep times and owners on track with due-date notifications
- Track the deposit and balance with partial payment records; let AI detect the receipt the customer sends, and see the remaining balance before the event at a glance on the card
- Keep a record of how many days the technical crew worked on which event, with fee and bonus records; let month-end payroll rest on the dashboard, not the ledger, and see crew performance in reports
Requests from WhatsApp, phone or a web form are saved with a source tag; event date, stage size and system needs build up on the card from the first note.
If needed, an on-site survey appointment is booked from an online page and synced with Google Calendar; the quote is sent as a PDF, the event date is added to the card, and revisions move forward with version history.
The equipment set from the catalog is recorded on the approved event; you can see which system is where on that date, and double-booking risk is checked from the start.
The deal moves to the approval stage in the sales pipeline; the payment plan is recorded as deposit and balance, and receipts are detected by AI.
The event board opens: loading, setup, rehearsal, sound check and teardown become a checklist, and each item gets a time and an owner.
Setup and teardown tasks are ordered hour by hour; last-minute changes reach the technical crew through one channel, and everyone on site sees the same list.
The balance is closed with a payment collection record; the technical crew’s working days are logged as crew fees, and the customer stays in the segment for annual events.

What should you look for when choosing a CRM for Sound, lighting & stage?
Before you decide, evaluate your candidates against these 5 criteria.
5 criteria
- A module ready for your industry. Instead of adapting a generic CRM for months Sound, lighting & stage choose a system that is ready on day one for your workflow (record fields, tags, reminder templates).
- WhatsApp and Instagram integration. In Turkey customer most communication comes through WhatsApp and Instagram; a CRM that does not offer a unified inbox through the official API leaves half the work outside.
- Automatic reminders and follow-up. Appointment, payment and repeat reminders should live in the system, not in memory; every missed reminder is lost revenue.
- Turkish-language support and TL pricing. Dollar-based foreign tools carry exchange rate risk and an English-only support barrier; TL pricing and Turkish-language setup support make total cost predictable.
- Free trial and cancellation without commitment. Try it with your own data before you decide: choose a solution that requires no credit card, offers at least a 7-day free trial and can be canceled whenever you want.
Sound, lighting & stage program, software or CRM?
Most business owners search for the solution they need as “Sound, lighting & stage program,” “Sound, lighting & stage software,” “Sound, lighting & stage job tracking software” or “Sound, lighting & stage customer management software.” “CRM” is the international name for this solution, and the need is the same: keep customer information in one place, never miss a request, and bring order to your work.

Frequently asked questions
Have another question? Write to us and we’ll look at your workflow together.
How does a CRM help a sound, lighting and stage company?
In this business you manage two things at once: which quote went out for which date, and which equipment is free on that date. A CRM keeps both on one dashboard. Requests from WhatsApp and phone collect in the inbox; each event’s quote versions, allocated equipment set, setup and teardown tasks, and payment plan sit on its own card. In peak season, none of the dozens of jobs running in parallel is left to anyone’s memory.
How do I prevent double-booking of equipment?
You keep systems such as line arrays, moving lights and mixers in the product catalog with stock counts. When you approve an event, you record which set you allocated to it; you can check at a glance whether the same system appears on another event card on the same date. That way the risk of booking your only line array for two concerts shows up long before setup morning. ÖzgürKod does not lock equipment for you; it makes inventory and allocations visible so you can spot the conflict yourself.
How do I track quotes that fall on the same date?
Each quote is sent as a PDF and takes a stage in the sales pipeline along with the event date: Preparing, Sent, Approved, Rejected, Revised. You see side by side on the board which of three quotes for the same Saturday is approved and which is hanging in the balance. With this date-based view you manage the risk of promising two jobs at once ahead of time and decide which quote to prioritize, knowing your crew and equipment capacity.
How do I share the setup and teardown plan with the crew?
For each event you open a card on the task board; loading, stage access, setup, rehearsal, sound check and teardown become checklist items. Each item gets a time and an assigned technician; stage plans and technical riders are attached to the card as files. Due-date notifications remind you of the next step. On site, everyone looks at the current list on the same card; the “which case goes in which vehicle” argument ends on its own when there’s a plan on record.
Does the system calculate the technical crew’s fees automatically?
No. ÖzgürKod is not payroll software and does not calculate and pay daily wages automatically — let’s be clear on that. What it does: it keeps a record of which technician worked how many days on which event, as crew fees and bonuses, and links the working days to the event card. At month end you look at recorded data instead of debating “I was on that job too.” The crew performance report shows who took part in how many events; the final payment decision and calculation stay with you.
How do deposit and balance tracking work?
Each event’s total price, deposit received and remaining balance sit on the customer record as a split payment record. AI detects the receipt a customer sends on WhatsApp; you post it to the payment record in one click. Before the event you see the remaining balance on the dashboard and send the reminder in one click with a Meta-approved template. ÖzgürKod does not take online payments; it organizes the recording and tracking of payment collection. The equipment is gone but the balance was never collected — that surprise doesn’t happen, because the numbers stay visible all season.
Sound, lighting & stage software and CRM the same thing? Which one is ÖzgürKod?
In practice they describe the same need. Businesses usually search for "Sound, lighting & stage software", "Sound, lighting & stage software", "Sound, lighting & stage job tracking software“ or “customer management software”; “CRM” is this solution is the international name. ÖzgürKod delivers all of these names on one platform: customer communication, appointments, quotes and orders, payment collection and reporting are all in one place. So whatever term you search with, the solution you reach is the same; you don’t need to set up separate software.
