Snap a business card, and a month of follow-up runs itself.
After events and meetings, business cards pile up. The intention is to follow up, but without a system, most contacts go cold before the first email.
Take a photo of anyone's business card and they are subscribed to a personalised meeting-organiser email sequence. The contact details are extracted from the photo and dropped straight into the flow.
Built on Apple Shortcuts for the capture and Make.com for the pipeline.
The sequence runs four emails over a month: a thank-you and great-to-meet-you, an invite to catch up about their business, a note about wanting to understand their work better, and a final nudge if the thread goes quiet.
If there is still no reply, it prompts you to reach out personally.
No card goes cold. Every new contact enters a warm, personalised sequence within seconds of being photographed, and the system nudges you to step in personally when automation has done what it can.

Snap a card, and a month of follow-up runs itself. Four emails over four weeks, then a prompt to reach out personally if the thread goes quiet.
