## Messages to send Mindie
- Right after the call: "Remind me on Thursday at 11am to follow up with Emma about the website proposal"
- A chain of follow-ups: "Remind me to follow up with Jake on Monday at 10am, and again next Friday at 10am if I haven't heard back"
- With context you'll need: "Remind me in 3 days at 4pm to call Mr Carter, he wanted the revised quote with 10% off"

A client follow-up reminder on WhatsApp is a message on the day you promised to get back to someone. With Mindie you set it right after the call, in the same app you just used: "remind me on Thursday at 11am to follow up with Emma about the website proposal". On Thursday at 11, Mindie messages you with exactly that.

Deals rarely die because a client said no. They die because nobody followed up. The proposal went out, the client got busy, and a week later the conversation is cold.

## When to set it

- **Immediately after the call or meeting,** while you still remember what was agreed.
- **For the day you said you'd follow up,** not "sometime next week".
- **With a second follow-up** if the first gets no reply. Two reminders in one message are fine.

## Why follow-ups slip

- **The promise lives in your head.** "I'll get back to you Thursday" is gone by Wednesday.
- **The CRM is too far away.** Opening a CRM to log a follow-up is the step that doesn't happen on a busy day.
- **Context is lost.** By the time you follow up, you've forgotten what they asked for.

## Make every follow-up count

- **Put the context in the reminder.** "He wanted the revised quote with 10% off" means you can act the moment it arrives.
- **Save client details as notes.** Preferences, budgets and names of their team, ready to ask for before the next call.
- **Use voice notes on the move.** Leaving a site visit or driving between meetings, a voice note sets the reminder without typing.

## How Mindie handles it

1. **Text or voice-note the follow-up** with the day, time and what it's about.
2. **Mindie confirms** the reminder, like "Thursday, 11:00 am: follow up with Emma about the website proposal".
3. **On the day, it messages you** with the details you gave it.

Ask "what follow-ups do I have this week?" to see what's coming. If the client replies before then, delete the reminder by name.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It doesn't message your clients.** The follow-up is still yours to send.
- **It isn't a CRM.** It doesn't track pipelines or deal stages.
- **It doesn't read your other chats,** so it won't notice a client's reply on its own.

## FAQ

### Can Mindie send the follow-up message to my client?
No. Mindie only messages you. It reminds you to follow up; the message to your client comes from you.

### Can I add notes about the client to the reminder?
Yes. Put the details in the same message, like what they asked for. Mindie includes them when it reminds you.

### Can I set a follow-up by voice note while driving?
Yes. Send a voice note like "remind me Thursday at 11 to call Emma about the proposal" and Mindie sets it from what you said.

### How do I choose when to follow up?
Pick the day you'd want to hear back by, and set it the moment the conversation ends. Three to five working days suits many proposals.

### Can I reply to push a follow-up back?
Yes. If the client asks for more time, reply "push it to next Tuesday", and Mindie moves the reminder.
