![]() Most of us probably know more than 150 people (Dunbar’s number) but from my experience, and following Dunbar’s number, you don’t need a lot of close relationships. It works great for maintaining a small network (anywhere between 2 and 150 people). Think of it as an improved Contact Manager app on your Mac or iPhone (or “Windows Contacts” on Windows). This is where a dedicated Contact Manager app comes in. Not quite the default Contact Manager that is available but also not a full-blown CRM. If you’ve never done serious deal making or made a big effort into building your network, it’s hard to justify paying a monthly fee or hundreds of dollars. Integrations are more important than features. As you know, we tend to pick solutions with integrations over features. The main issue I’ve found though is that these CRMs don’t natively integrate with your existing systems. ![]() I’d say it’s worthwhile if you’re dealing with hundreds of people a month. It’s easy to say it’s worthwhile to spend $250 a year if it allows you to stay in touch with people and all the value and deals that come out of it. Most CRMs cost at least $20/month and can run up to hundreds of dollars a month. There are a lot of great solutions out there but they also cost a lot. If you’ve ever used a CRM (Contact Relationship Manager) for your business, you’d probably think “Thanh, why not use a CRM for this?”
