🤔 Predictions
Technology enthusiasts will be early adopters of personal CRM tools. For example, Clay targets leaders of tech and creative industries as well as C-level employees
Some Personal CRMs will focus on personal relationships (reminders about birthdays, events, hobbies, gift ideas, family, and to-dos. e.g. Hippo, Monica,
While others will focus on professional networks. e.g. Clay, Nection, Mogul.
Some No-code and super apps will also offer Personal CRM templates. For example, Airtable, Monday, and Notion have tons of community-generated Personal CRM Templates
The 2020s is a decade of solopreneurs, influencers, and content creators. They will need a Personal CRM to track their relationships with industry peers, brands, community, etc.
