Case study · our own company
The first company on Slatebook is the one that builds it.
Forty-one clients and 134 productions came out of spreadsheets in a day. The number that surprised us was the one nobody had ever sat down and worked out.

What actually happened
- THE MOVE
One day, not a migration project
134 productions, 176 quotes, 195 invoices, 75 contacts and 263 pieces of kit went in on 5 September. No process change was asked for and no history was left behind — the point of importing the back catalogue rather than starting clean is that the old work is where the answers are.
- WHAT APPEARED
A win rate that had never been calculable
134 quotes accepted against 42 lost, across 41 clients — 76%. Not a hard sum, but not one anybody was going to do by opening 176 files. It is the first number the company has had for how often it converts, and it is now on a screen rather than in a feeling.
- WHAT IT SETTLED
£11,991 outstanding, in one place
Issued invoices, still unpaid, totalled without anybody adding up. The figure is small because the company is small; the point is that it took no work to know it, and it was previously spread across a folder and a bank feed.
- WHAT IS NOT HERE YET
No bookings, no call sheets, no shoot days
Flowspire runs its enquiries, quotes, kit and invoicing in Slatebook and has not yet moved its scheduling across. So this page claims nothing about clashes caught or admin hours saved, because there is no data behind either. When there is, it will say so.
Whose numbers these are
Ours. Flowspire builds Slatebook and runs its own work on it, which makes this the least independent case study you will read — so every figure above is a count you could take from the database yourself, not an outcome we are claiming credit for.
The clients are real companies who agreed to be filmed, not to appear on a supplier’s website. So there are forty-one of them and none of them are named.

The import takes a spreadsheet of jobs, clients, kit or crew. The first production is free and needs no card.
