The creator, a design studio owner, shares a personal story about realizing she ignored $500,000 in potential business by not using a CRM. She explains her initial resistance, then details how she implemented Attio, an AI CRM, which automatically analyzed over 10,000 emails to identify and surface 12 high-value leads she had forgotten. She concludes by recommending the tool to other business owners who might be making the same mistake.

Here’s what happened when I tried @attio the AI crm #ad
1. Connected my Gmail
2. It sifted through 10,000+ emails and populated every contact and company I’d ever spoken to
3. I Asked the AI chat to surface anyone who’d mentioned wanting to work with mapo studio that I hadn’t followed up on
4. It returned 12 people from the last 6 months. At 50K average deal size, that’s roughly 500K in pipeline I’d ignored 😭
if you’ve been telling yourself you don’t need a CRM because you’ll remember, double check 😂

Okay. I just realized I ignored $500,000 worth of pipeline because I never set up a CRM. I run a 7 figure design studio and I never yes one because they felt too manual. I thought, I have a great memory, so why even bother? Turns out I have been very very wrong about that because I best connected my Gmail and calendar to Attio, the AI CRM, which I've actually been recommended many times over by founders that we work with. Tier sifted over 10,000 emails and it was instantly populated with every person I've contacted, what company they work at, and when we last spoke. Then I asked Atteo, who have I not followed up with that mentioned wanting to work with Mappo Studio on product design? It gave me a list of 12 people in the last six months. Each project is worth around $50,000 to us, so that's quite a big deal. So yeah, turns out my memory isn't that great. So if you've been winging it like me, trust me, attio is better. I like more business content. Bye.
