The problem it solves

Once a client is onboarded, it's easy to get busy and let the relationship go quiet until the next project. Remembering to check in, celebrate milestones, and ask for a testimonial at just the right time isn't something you can reliably keep track of by hand.

Who it fits

A coach, designer, or service provider who wants to stay in touch with clients without manual follow-up.

How it works

  1. Watches your client list for new or updated client records
  2. Sends a nurture email at set points after onboarding
  3. Sends a personalized message when a client hits a milestone
  4. Requests a testimonial at the right moment in the relationship
  5. Notifies you when a testimonial comes in and logs it for tracking
What you get

Clients who stay in touch long after onboarding ends

Clients hear from you at the right moments after onboarding, through milestones, and when it's the perfect time to ask for a testimonial.

What you get

A steady stream of client check-in emails and a growing collection of testimonials, all tracked automatically.

What you need

A Notion account, an email account for sending, and a Telegram bot for notifications.

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.
