what’s your system for follow ups, scheduling, and admin work?

last week i forgot to follow up on an important email for like 3 days because it got buried under newsletters, random notifications, calendar invites, and other operational stuff

made me realize how much small businesses/founders basically operate off inboxes + memory

curious how other founder-operators handle this kind of thing day to day

not really talking about strategy/growth more just the operational side:

  • customer/client emails
  • follow ups
  • scheduling
  • approvals
  • reminders
  • trying not to let important things slip

do you actually have a system for this or does it mostly just live in your head?

would genuinely love hearing about stuff that slipped before and caused stress/problems
