Ask HN: Which CRM can help manually curated leads and automate lead discovery?
I'm currently juggling a lot of CRM-related work using Notion and Gmail—taking meeting notes, sending follow-up emails, and tracking lead statuses manually. While this setup works, it’s becoming increasingly cumbersome.
I’m looking for a tool that can both:
- Import manually curated leads: I already have a database of leads that I've built up and want to easily dump into a new system.
- Automate parts of my lead discovery process: It’d be great if the tool could help streamline or even automate the process of finding new leads.
Has anyone successfully integrated such a tool into their workflow? What solutions have you found that meet these requirements? Any recommendations, insights, or experiences would be appreciated! What parts are you looking to automate. Sending communications or pulling structured data from emails/meetings? Both I'm not sure if a tool exists that does all those specific things but you should check out the automation tool n8n (https://n8n.io/integrations/). They have notion, gmail, and various DB integrations.
