Telegram CRM for Professional Services
Client work on Telegram, with a record you can rely on
Matter, stage, owner and deadline on the client's chat, handover notes between staff, and a Slack-side record that a deletion cannot erase.
Consultancies, legal and accounting firms increasingly take client instructions over Telegram. The convenience is real and so is the exposure: an instruction that matters is a message anyone can delete.

The operating loop
How Professional Services run marketing, sales and service on Telegram
Get client instructions into a form the firm can rely on.
Every fee earner's account in one inbox
The firm sees live client work without asking anyone to forward or retype anything.
Matter fields on the chat
Client, matter, stage, owner and deadline as custom columns beside the conversation.
Private or shared per account
Sensitive relationships stay private to one person while general client accounts are shared.
Slack channel per account
Conversations flow into Slack, where the firm keeps its own durable copy.
Run the matter with deadlines that are visible.
Deadlines as date fields
A filter shows everything due this week across every fee earner and every client.
Tickets for deliverables
Each piece of work becomes an owned ticket with an SLA and a resolution field.
Internal comments
Firm-side context the client never sees, so cover and handover do not restart the matter.
Templates for standard advice
Engagement terms and process explanations sent consistently without retyping.
Protect the record and the client relationship.
Prevent editing and deletion
An instruction that matters cannot be quietly rewritten or removed after the fact.
Slack as a second, separate copy
What Slack received stays in Slack even if the Telegram message is deleted.
Timestamped activity log
Field and status changes recorded with an actor and a time.
CSV export for the file
Structured records leave the system in a form the matter file can hold.
01
The challenge
Clients instruct over Telegram because it is fast, but the firm gets none of the controls it would expect anywhere else. There is no record of who was told what, deadlines live in individual calendars, and any message can be edited or deleted by whoever sent it. When a fee earner is away or leaves, the state of the matter is unknown.
02
How Entergram helps
Entergram keeps Telegram as the client-facing channel and adds the controls underneath. Matter, stage, owner and deadline are custom fields, so the firm can filter to everything due this week. Deliverables become tickets with an SLA. The workspace can prevent message editing and deletion outright, and the two-way Slack connector keeps a separate copy of what came through, so a later deletion on the Telegram side does not remove what the firm already holds.
- Matter, stage, owner and deadline as filterable fields
- Prevent message editing and deletion across the workspace
- A Slack-side record that survives a Telegram deletion
- Internal comments so handover does not restart the matter
- Timestamped activity log of field and status changes
- Per-account sharing, so sensitive relationships stay private
Capabilities
What Professional Services actually use
Privacy and record controls
Hide usernames, hide group member information, prevent users from editing messages, prevent users from deleting messages.
Two-way Slack with a durable record
Telegram conversations flow into Slack, replies go back out through the real account, and Slack keeps what it received as a separate copy.
Tickets with SLA
Deliverables become owned work with a deadline, a category and a resolution field.
Activity log and internal comments
Field and status changes carry an actor and a timestamp. Comments stay firm-side.
Per-account sharing
Each connected account is shared with the workspace or kept private to the user who connected it.

FAQ
Questions from Professional Services
Can we stop staff deleting client messages?
Yes. The workspace can prevent users from deleting messages and from editing them. Pairing that with the Slack connector gives a second copy a Telegram-side deletion cannot reach.
Is Slack a replacement inbox?
No. Slack is an internal collaboration and record surface. Each connected Telegram account maps to the Slack channel that should own it, but the work happens in the inbox.
Can sensitive client accounts stay private?
Yes. Sharing is a per-account choice, so a partner's confidential relationships stay private while general client accounts are shared with the firm.
Is there an audit trail?
The activity log records field and status changes with an actor and a timestamp, and records export to CSV. Entergram is an operating layer, not a compliance archiving product, so firms with formal retention duties should treat it alongside their existing systems.
Does the client see anything different?
No. Entergram sits on top of Telegram and runs on real personal accounts, so the client sees the same conversation with the same person.
