Many Australian financial services businesses operate across multiple verticals. A mortgage brokerage might also hold an insurance licence. A financial planning firm might refer mortgage clients to an in-house broker. Running separate CRMs for each vertical creates data silos, duplicate client records, and operational complexity. Multi-vertical CRMs with vertical packs solve this.
What is a vertical pack?
A vertical pack is a modular configuration that adapts the CRM's pipeline stages, required fields, compliance workflows, and terminology to a specific industry vertical. The mortgage pack includes DTI calculation, LVR tracking, and NCCP compliance. The insurance pack includes policy renewal tracking, claims management, and AFSL compliance. The underlying platform, contacts, communications, documents, analytics, stays the same.
One client record, multiple verticals
When a mortgage client also needs insurance, their record doesn't get duplicated, it gains an insurance deal alongside their mortgage deal. The broker (or separate insurance specialist) sees the full relationship history. This unified view is impossible when mortgage and insurance run on different platforms.
Operational efficiency gains
Businesses running multi-vertical CRMs report 40% less time on administration compared to multi-platform setups. One login, one contact database, one reporting dashboard, one set of integrations to maintain. The complexity of vertical-specific workflows is handled by packs, not by the operations team juggling multiple systems.
