Copy-ready prompt

I run a [TYPE] consulting business and don't code. Help me build a simple CRM step by step: a dashboard, companies, people, contracts, timesheets and invoices. Use Supabase for the database and Netlify for hosting. Start with the data model and the dashboard, explain each step in plain English, and tell me how to lock down who can see each table before I add real client data.

Watch out: Keep real client and billing data out until access rules on every table are checked.
