Sam Queen

I've personally built 100+ custom Close CRM accounts over 8 years. I'll build yours the right way from day one - smart views, automations, pipelines, workflows, and full team training. I am a sales rep first, a sales operator second.

Most CRMs are built once and never touched again. Someone spends a weekend clicking around, creates some fields, builds a pipeline, and calls it done. Three months later the data is messy, the reps aren't following the process, and nobody can figure out why the reporting looks wrong.

That's not how I build.

I treat your CRM like a product. It gets built, tested, improved, and iterated on over time. It evolves as your business evolves. And it's never truly finished - because your sales process is never truly finished either.

Here's what I build. Custom activities that capture clean data at every stage of your sales process. Smart views that eliminate decision fatigue so your reps stop wondering who to call and start calling. Workflows and Zapier automations that remove every repetitive manual step. Templates, dialer strategy, reporting tiles, and pipeline structure - all of it done for you.

Building the CRM is half the job. Getting your team to actually use it is the other half. My onboarding process is structured and documented. Reps go through a training library, sign off on it, and get quizzed for competency before they ever touch a live lead. The accountability is built into the system from day one.

I've spent 8 years building 100+ custom Close CRM accounts across SaaS, coaching, real estate, insurance, agencies, and more. The industry changes. The principles don't.

Close and CloseDr

Prior to joining the partner directory, Close CRM's own sales reps referred their most complex accounts directly to me. I've built and influenced more Close CRM accounts than the rest of the partner directory combined - through direct client work and free content that has reached thousands of Close users. I've also run co-branded webinars with Close, available for replay on my YouTube channel.

10/10 Real Deal CloseDr!!!
Sep 11, 2026
Sam was immensely knowledgeable and assisted us in building a killer CRM. The workflows and automations he helped implement are not only going to save us time, but truly allow us to understand the health of our pipeline and optimize each and every opportunity. Time to put things in action now that we have a well-oiled machine!!

I’m suffering because of Sam

I’m suffering from making millions of dollars because Sam showed me and my team on how to maximize every lead, now we don’t have a single lead that slips through the cracks and I’m able to comfortably rely on the sales system Sam helped us make which keeps an eye and holds every rep accountable, Sam is the 🐐
Top tier systems

Sam helped me build everything from scratch. Every little detail matters, as he always says, so we built the CRM specifically tailored to me and my team. His presence, focus, and attention to detail helped us understand exactly what needed to be done, from the overall CRM structure to Smart Views, tasks, workflows, and all the small details that make the entire system run efficiently. He also introduced me to Sendblue, which has significantly increased my show rates and integrates directly int
Sam is the real Close Dr.

We'd had Close for over a year before we brought Sam in, and I assumed that meant we were past the point where a partner engagement would move the needle much. That assumption was wrong. Sam didn't just show us features we'd missed, he sat down and mapped our entire sales motion against how Close is actually built to be used, and the gap between those two things was bigger than I expected.
