Who should I reconnect with?
Three clients fit in your head. The ninety people who could send you work don't. Every week YouSpot names the one worth a note, says why now, and drafts it in your voice.
How it shows up
Over half of new work for people like you comes from people you already know, and it goes quiet by default, one finished project at a time. Nothing in your day reminds you of Dana. This does.
It ranks by who has actually mattered, not just by how long it has been. A founder's early investor, a creator's first sponsor, a consultant's best referrer. The draft is written from what you've sent before, so it sounds like you, and you are the one who sends it.
How it knows
Your LinkedIn messages and invitations say who you talk to and when it stopped. Connect Gmail and your sent mail joins them, which is where the referrals and the introductions live. YouSpot reads when you last wrote to each person and who has sent something your way, and picks the person where both say now.
- Gmail
Questions
- How often will it nudge me?
- Weekly by default, one to three people, one draft. It never sends the same suggestion twice after you have dismissed it.
- Does it send the note?
- No. YouSpot writes the draft and hands it to you. You read it, change what you like, and send it yourself.
- Will it treat my friends like sales targets?
- It ranks people by relationship and time, not by deal value, and there is no pipeline anywhere in the product. The note it drafts is the one you would have written if you had remembered.
The other things it watches for.
- Every day
Who needs my attention?
A short list, most mornings: who's gone quiet, who's coming up, who changed jobs, who you never answered. Each with why, and the sources. You pick one.
- New business
Who in my network could become a customer?
The best new business is usually someone you already know whose circumstances changed. YouSpot watches for that. When you want to go wider, describe the kind of company and it finds them, marked with who you know at each.
- Promises
What follow-ups am I forgetting?
YouSpot reads what you said you would do, what others are waiting on from you, and, with Gmail connected, what your email says you invoiced and never heard back about. Then it drafts the follow-up.
- Your network
Who can get me into a company?
Name the company. YouSpot finds the warmest real route in: who you know there, who you both know, and how you know them. Or an honest no route from here.
- Changes
What changed in my network?
People change jobs, companies raise, champions leave. Every week YouSpot names the changes among people you know that matter to you, with a reason and a note to send.
- Your network
What do I already know about them?
You wrote it down somewhere: a note after the call, the scope in a PDF, a line in your mail. Ask in plain words and YouSpot finds it, reads it, and answers with where each part came from.
- Every day
What's the latest with this client?
Every client's context, one search away. Ask about Northwind and YouSpot reads the mail, the meetings and what's still open across every mailbox you've connected, then tells you in a few lines.
- Keeping up
What was in my newsletters?
You subscribed to them for a reason, and now they pile up unread. Each weekday morning YouSpot reads the ones you picked, tells you which issues are worth your time and why, and keeps every issue so you can ask about it later.
