What is the Best Sales CRM for the Shed Industry?
A 2025 Comparison

If you're a shed dealer, you know the pain. You have leads coming in from your website, Facebook Ads, maybe a 3D configurator like IdeaRoom, and your payment system like Shed Suite or ShedPro. Your sales reps are scrambling to keep up, but leads are getting lost, follow-up is inconsistent, and you have no idea what your true ROI is.

You know you need a CRM, but which one is best for the *shed industry*? Let's be honest: generic, "big box" CRMs are failing shed dealers. They are blank slates that don't understand your business. Let's compare the most popular options.

The Rankings: Best Shed CRM

Let's cut to the chase. Here is our ranking for the best shed sales CRM based on value, features, and—most importantly—ease of setup for your industry.

1. #1 Velocity 360 (The "Done-for-You" Solution)
2. #2 GoHighLevel (The "Do-it-Yourself" Power Tool)
3. #3 HubSpot (The "Expensive & Bloated" Corporate Tool)

Here’s the detailed breakdown of why.

#1 Velocity 360: The White-Glove, Turnkey Shed CRM

Velocity 360 is built on the same powerful platform as GoHighLevel, but with one game-changing difference: **it’s a "white-glove," turnkey solution built specifically for shed dealers.**

We don't hand you a box of parts; we build the entire sales machine for you. Our goal is to make your system work *for* you, not create a second job *for* you.

Why Velocity 360 Wins:

• White-Glove Setup: We handle everything. We port your phone numbers, set up your A2P texting compliance, and configure your email (SMTP) to ensure your messages land in the inbox, not the spam folder.
• Turnkey Shed Integrations: This is our biggest advantage. We connect *all* your tools. We are the only platform with pre-built, native integrations for:
  • Shed Suite
  • ShedPro
  • IdeaRoom
  • Digital Shed Builder (and other 3D configurators)
  • Shed Geek Marketing
  • Facebook/Google Ads & Website Forms
• Pre-Built Workflows That Convert: You start with our proven blueprint on Day 1. This includes a 60-second "Speed to Lead" automation, a 75-day automated follow-up for cold leads, and 5-star review request campaigns.
• US-Based, 24/7 Support: When you need help, you talk to our team on American soil. No frustrating language barriers. We also provide 24/7 AI chat agents who can answer questions instantly.
• A Dedicated Roadmap: We are constantly improving our system *for the shed industry*. Our roadmap includes advanced AI Call Summaries (to auto-add notes like "12x20 barn, $5k budget, needs delivery to 123 Main St") because we know your reps are on the go and don't have time to type.

The Bottom Line: Velocity 360 is the only solution that is a *true* Shed CRM out of the box, not a generic tool you have to force to work.

#2 GoHighLevel (GHL): The Powerful "DIY" Kit

GoHighLevel is a fantastic, powerful software platform. We love it so much, we built Velocity 360 on top of it. But for a shed dealer, buying GHL directly is like buying a high-performance engine without the car.

You get all the features, but you get them in a completely blank, empty box. You are 100% responsible for building every single thing from scratch.

The Challenges of GHL:

• Complex Setup: You are responsible for your own A2P texting registration, SMTP setup for email, and all workflow design. These are highly technical, frustrating, and time-consuming tasks.
• No Shed Integrations: GHL does not connect to Shed Suite, ShedPro, or IdeaRoom out of the box. You would need to hire an expensive developer to build custom (and fragile) integrations.
• Outsourced Support: Support is primarily outsourced to other countries. This can lead to significant communication gaps and frustration when you need critical help.

#3 HubSpot: The Overpriced, Complicated Giant

HubSpot is a powerful tool for tech companies and massive corporations, but it is a terrible fit for the vast majority of shed dealers.

It's bloated, complex, and wildly expensive for what you actually get. Its entire model is built on upselling you to new "Hubs" that cost thousands per month.

The Problems with HubSpot:

• Extreme Cost: HubSpot is 40-90% more expensive than Velocity 360, and its pricing is designed to punish you for growing.
• Extreme Complexity: It has hundreds of features (like "custom objects" and "sales playbooks") that your sales team will never use but you will pay for.
• A "Messy" Integration: You have to pay extra for *every* integration, and they are notoriously difficult to set up. You will pay for HubSpot, then pay for a separate phone system, then pay for another tool for voicemail drops.
• No Native VM Drops: You cannot automatically drop pre-recorded voicemails into a customer's inbox—a key feature of the Velocity 360 system.

The Verdict: Don't Buy a Blank Canvas, Buy a Blueprint

Your choice comes down to a simple question: **Do you want to become a full-time software integrator, or do you want to sell more sheds?**

While GoHighLevel and HubSpot are powerful platforms, they require you to do all the work. Velocity 360 is the only platform that provides a "white glove," turnkey solution *built for the shed industry* from the ground up, with all the integrations and automated workflows you need to start closing more leads today.
