Why should you use a personal CRM?

Every creator, entrepreneur, or busy individual should use a personal CRM to keep an organized contact management system. Here’s why you should start using one:

Keep track and follow up on your professional networking efforts
Get all your contacts organized in one place
Remind you of important friends, family, and potential clients’ milestones (birthdays, anniversaries, graduation dates)
Keep track of emails, reminders, and touchpoints metrics in the same place
Take the conversations out of social media and formalize them (or even host in-person gatherings)

What are the benefits of using a personal CRM?

Personal CRMs have multiple benefits, such as

Improved contacting efforts and increased networking
Better relationship building and maintenance
Increased personal productivity
Better personal brand perception in your niche
Less manual and repetitive work
Increased outreaching outcome

What can you do with a personal CRM?

Personal CRMs can let you do anything that you’d do with a marketing or operational CRM but with your personal contacts. That means you’ll be able to:

Review and update your contacts, groups, and deals
Keep a log of interactions with those contacts
Keep visibility of your personal interactions and agreements
Reach out to your contacts via different channels
Analyze the metrics of your interactions (which is especially useful if you’re a budding entrepreneur or looking for work)
