Contact Book vs a Notion CRM template
A Notion template is the simplest CRM you can build in twenty minutes. Here's where it stops being enough.
At a glance
A Notion CRM template is a great starting point. It's free, it's flexible, and it works for the first month. After that, three things tend to break: cadence reminders are flaky, life-event reminders rely on calendar tricks, and adding a custom field to a contact gradually fills the page with property pills nobody cleans up. Contact Book is the next step up - the same idea, but with the relationship-specific surface baked in.
