"And what if the client wants a CRM... Do you install a popular CRM plugin, and then tell the customer to ignore 90% of what's in their dashboard, because posting articles isn't something they want?"
No, you modify the template so it's not showing the stuff they don't want. Problem solved.
"If I as a client came to a company and said I wanted a CRM built for my company, and they gave me a Wordpress blog with a shitty CRM plugin, I'd request a refund and find someone who is actually going to build to my needs, and not hurry me through the tunnel to get my money and go onto someone else."
And if I was your boss, I'd fire you for wasting my money.
"But I believe in quality over quantity."
Nobody here is any different. The difference is that I don't think that the only one who can deliver quality is me.
"I'd rather spend time building a custom solution (Note, just because I am building a CRM doesn't mean I build the whole thing from the ground up, I use frameworks) that is going to make my client ecstatic and return again and again, than be like a friend's company."
And again, you're assuming that result isn't possible with an off the shelf solution.
