The problem it solves

New leads pile up and it's easy to lose track of who you've contacted and when. You mean to follow up but life gets in the way, and warm leads go cold. Keeping a spreadsheet updated by hand takes time you don't have.

Who it fits

Sales teams and small business owners who prospect for new customers regularly.

How it works

  1. New lead data arrives from your prospecting tool
  2. The system reads and organizes the details automatically
  3. Each lead is added to a spreadsheet you can review anytime
  4. An introductory email goes out and the date is recorded
  5. Two days later, a follow-up email is sent automatically if there's been no reply
What you get

Leads followed up with on schedule

Every new lead gets logged, emailed, and automatically followed up with two days later if they haven't replied.

What you get

An organized spreadsheet of leads plus automatically sent introduction and follow-up emails.

What you need

A lead data source, a Google Sheets account, and an email account for sending messages.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
