Turn a spreadsheet into a follow-up list

Leads, quotes and open jobs sit in a spreadsheet or CRM, and nobody can see which ones went quiet. Drop in the export and get the overdue list, grouped by who owns each one.

Before you start

Export your list from wherever it lives: a CRM, a job tracker, or a Google Sheet.

  • In Google Sheets: File, Download, Comma separated values.
  • In Excel: File, Save as, then choose CSV.
  • In most CRMs: open the list view, then use Export.

It needs three things in the file: a column that names each lead or job, a column with the last time someone contacted them, and, if you have one, a column saying who owns it.

Your data stays with you

The file is read inside your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Tool · follow-up list

Your file stays on this page. Nothing is uploaded.

Put headings in the first row. Separate columns with commas or tabs.

Make it stick

A list you build once a week is better than none. Every item on it is a follow-up that depended on someone remembering. Pick the owner with the longest list and ask what is getting in the way.

The follow-up that runs itself guide covers how to give every open item an owner, a clock and a reminder that sends itself.
