The Relationship CRM

Track your connections in a simple spreadsheet: name, how you met, key details, last contact date, and next follow-up date. The system does the remembering so your brain can do the thinking during the actual conversation.

The goodbye shapes the memory as much as the hello. Walk them out, say something specific about what you'll follow up on, and the whole interaction ends with a hook instead of a fade.

This system ensures no valuable connection falls through the cracks. Review it weekly and reach out to anyone overdue for a touch — a three-line note is plenty to keep a dormant contact warm.
