You’ve attended the event, shaken hands, and collected a small stack of business cards. Now what? If you’re like most professionals, that pile of potential partnerships is in danger of becoming desk clutter ...
You focus on making connections, YourPCM can handle the rest for you!
The real challenge isn't meeting people - it's transforming those brief interactions into meaningful, long-term business relationships. That's where YourPCM comes in because you've got a bit of a dilemma.
Networking events are full of energy, opportunities, and great conversations. But after the handshakes and introductions, reality sets in: following up effectively takes time, organisation, and consistency. If you don't have a streamlined workflow, promising connections fade away, and business opportunities slip through the cracks.
YourPCM can fix that for you! It's built for small business owners who network both face-to-face and online. It's designed to capture every contact, organise your interactions, and ensure no valuable connection is wasted. Here's how it works:
Business Card Scanning: Instantly Capture Contacts
Tired of manually entering contact details? Snap a picture of a business card using your computer's webcam, and YourPCM will automatically extract key details and create a new contact for you. No more transcribing names and emails - just seamless data entry that lets you focus on the conversation instead of your database.
AI-Powered Prospecting: Identify Your Best Leads
Need to add new contacts to your funnel? YourPCM's Discovery Tool lets you enter a profession and a location and get hundreds of potential new clients added directly to your contact database. And that included generic email addresses and social media channels too. Reach out the way you prefer and make contact!
Personalised Follow-Up Reminders: Stay on Track
Networking is about consistency. YourPCM helps you maintain momentum with smart follow-up reminders. Whether it's a quick check-in email, a LinkedIn connection, or a scheduled call, you'll get timely nudges that keep relationships warm and conversations moving forward.
Customisable Communication: Engage Your Way
One-size-fits-all follow-ups don't work, do they? YourPCM lets you personalise emails, SMS text messages (to UK contacts only), and even mailing list campaigns so you can engage each contact in the way that suits them best. The result? More meaningful interactions and stronger business relationships.
From first handshake to long-term success, effective networking isn't about simply collecting business cards and sticking them in a desk drawer - it's about building relationships that drive real business growth. With YourPCM's networking-friendly features, you can stop worrying about lost opportunities and start leveraging every connection to its full potential.
Next time you attend an event, log on to YourPCM when you get home or back to the office. You focus on making connections - we'll handle the rest for you.
Love, light and logic ...

If anything I've written in this blog post resonates with you and you'd like to discover more, it may be a great idea to book a Zoom demo with me and I'll show you around, or call me on 07490 373980 and let's see how I can help.
I'm a 32-year veteran web developer, who published one of the first 1,000 websites in the entire world when I worked at The Open University way back in 1993. Since then I've been involved with projects big and small, funded and unfunded, corporate and commercial. I was part of the dot com boom and contracted in California in the mid-2000s.
On my return to the UK circa 2011, I started work on my digital marketing platform SLO Media, and have run that successfully for nearly 15 years, blogging, sharing social media content and sending mailers for a small yet exclusive group of clients.
During the pandemic, when we were all bored out of our skulls, I created YourPCM, a SaaS CRM designed exclusively for small business owners, alth0ugh I don't call it a CRM because CRMs are boring and people glaze over when they hear that term. I just call it 'easy contact management for small business owners'.
My head is in The Cloud, my heart belongs to The Web, and my soul is filled with such beautiful code.
