Why professional follow-up is easy to miss
A spreadsheet can hold names, notes, and last-contact dates, but it will not remind you to look at it.
Strong networks are often maintained through small, timely check-ins rather than urgent tasks.
Reminders gives each follow-up date a clear place to live without replacing your spreadsheet, CRM, inbox, or notes.
When you may want to follow up
You may want a reminder a few weeks after meeting someone, then again every few months if the relationship matters.
For event contacts, set a near-term follow-up first, then choose a later date once the conversation has context.
Choose the reminder schedule that matches the relationship and your reason for staying in touch.

Email, SMS, and backup contact options
Free supports email reminders. Paid options can include SMS and backup contact follow-up where available, including notify backup contact if I do not respond. Delivery can depend on email providers, mobile carriers, and contact details, so Reminders does not promise delivery in every case.
Email reminders
Included on Free for active reminders within plan limits.
SMS options
Available on paid options where supported and configured.
Backup contact follow-up
A paid option for important deadlines that need an extra check-in.
Important note
Reminders helps you track dates and follow-up plans. It is not business, career, professional, financial, legal, or relationship advice.
Reminders does not send messages on your behalf, manage your contacts, or promise replies, referrals, introductions, or outcomes.
FAQ
Can I use Reminders to keep professional connections warm?
Yes. Add a follow-up date for a contact, choose a reminder schedule, and follow up when Reminders notifies you.
Does this replace my networking spreadsheet?
No. Reminders works well alongside a spreadsheet or notes system by giving important contacts actual reminder dates.
Can I set repeating follow-up reminders?
Repeating reminders are available with Plus. You can also create a new one-time reminder after each check-in.
Can I get SMS reminders?
Free reminders use email. Paid options can include SMS where available.
Does Reminders send the follow-up message for me?
No. Reminders notifies you. You choose what to send, when to send it, and whether to follow up.
