Labels & the Label Round — you sort, you label, you network
The party journey is three moves: 1️⃣ you sort, 2️⃣ you label, 3️⃣ you network. Sorting says who you know. Labels say what each relationship actually is — and that's what turns a contact list into a network you can run like a pro.
The labels
Pick as many as fit — most people are more than one thing:
- 🎯 Prospect — someone who could become a client.
- 💰 Client — they pay you (or have).
- 🧾 Vendor — you pay them.
- 👥 Colleague — you work (or worked) together.
- ⚔️ Competitor — worth keeping an eye on.
- 🤝 Relationship — a genuine relationship you value.
- 🥂 Networking — a networking friend: not a prospect or client, but someone worth knowing.
- 🧲 COI — a center of influence who sends you business.
- 📣 Influencer — a big audience in your world.
- 💬 Engaged — they engage with your content.
The action flags
Flags are your to-do layer — what you want to do about someone:
- 📌 Prioritize — top of your network; give them your attention first.
- 🌱 Nurture — keep warm over time, whether they're a client or a friend.
- 📅 Reconnect — it's been too long; reach back out.
- 🔍 Research — look them up before you decide.
- 🚩 Red flag — proceed with caution.
- 🚫 DNC — do not contact.
- 🗑 Remove — you'd disconnect if you got around to it.
And remember ⭐ — the star from The Sort — is your follow-up list. Star anyone, labeled or not.
The Label Round
Once you've sorted 50 people, the Label Round unlocks in The Sort — same fast card game, but now it deals you the people you know and haven't labeled yet. Keys 1–0 toggle labels, Enter saves, S skips, U undoes. You can also focus a round on one company and label your way through it.
What labels unlock
- Filter your list in one click — all your prospects, all your COIs, all your reconnects — from your connections table or straight from your Network Analytics.
- Labeling counts as activity — label sessions lift your Activity dial just like sorting does.
- Labels are yours alone — other members never see how you've labeled anyone.
