Google Sheets version. The Google Sheets copy is the same template without Excel “table” objects, which Google Sheets doesn’t convert cleanly: lists use plain formatting, banded rows and a filter instead. Formulas, drop-downs and colors work the same. Print settings are chosen in File → Print.

How to use it

  1. 1Download the file and open it in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers.
  2. 2Delete the 10 sample contacts.
  3. 3Add one person per row and pick a type and a status.
  4. 4Write the date of your last contact and the next follow-up.
  5. 5Each morning, sort or filter on the follow-up column: what’s due is highlighted.

Questions

How do I create a client list in Excel?

Use one row per contact and one column per detail (name, company, e-mail, phone, type, status, dates, notes). This template has those columns ready, with drop-downs and highlighted follow-ups.

Is an Excel contact list a CRM?

It covers the basics of one: who your contacts are and when to follow up. When you want reminders sent to you, website form entries added automatically or a sync with your mailbox, that’s the custom automation.

How do I see who to follow up today?

Sort or filter the “Next follow-up” column. Dates that are today or past are highlighted in orange, and the counter at the top shows how many are due.

Can I import my contacts from Gmail or Outlook?

Yes: export your contacts as a CSV file, then copy the columns you need (name, e-mail, phone, company) into the matching columns of the list.

Does it work in Google Sheets?

Yes. Download the Google Sheets copy and open it from Google Drive with Google Sheets.
