# Visualize your network

> Turn your scattered contacts into a single searchable database. Rolodex pulls in your LinkedIn, email, and calendar connections to give you a complete view of your professional network.

Your professional network is one of your most valuable assets — but for most people, it’s scattered across LinkedIn profiles, spreadsheets, inboxes, address books, calendars, and old notes. It lives in a fragmented, invisible state — hard to search, impossible to manage, and often forgotten.

**Rolodex changes that.**

With Rolodex, you can create a **single, living database** of everyone you’ve ever interacted with — from former colleagues and classmates to prospects, partners, investors, advisors, and beyond. It’s a modern reimagining of the classic Rolodex: not a sales tool, not a CRM, but a **repository of real professional relationships** — rich with context, easy to navigate, and fully yours.

## What Makes Rolodex Different

Traditional CRMs are built for managing customers through stages, automation, and pipeline logic. They’re great for sales teams — but too rigid and impersonal for true relationship-building.

Rolodex is something else entirely. It’s built around *people*, not processes. It gives you a place to store, search, and grow your network without reducing it to a funnel.

With Rolodex, you can track:

* Where someone works (or used to work)
* How you met and when you last connected
* Personal notes like shared interests, education history, number of kids, or important milestones
* Email and calendar interactions
* Common connections across your network

This is your **complete professional memory** — organized and always accessible.

## How to Visualize Your Network in Rolodex

### 1. **Create Your Workspace**

Sign up and create your own Rolodex workspace. This is your central hub — where all your contacts come together.

### 2. **Upload Your Network**

Connect your LinkedIn, email, and calendar to automatically pull in everyone you’ve ever interacted with. These become searchable, enriched contact cards — no manual entry required.

### 3. **Organize with Lists and Boards**

Group your contacts into custom lists (e.g. “Investors,” “Old Colleagues,” “People to Reconnect With”) or Kanban-style board views to keep your network visual and structured.

### 4. **See Which Companies You're Connected To**

Rolodex automatically maps your contacts to their organizations, allowing you to explore which companies you have a presence in — and how deep your connections go.

### 5. **Build Org Charts for Companies**

Use drag-and-drop org charts to visualize reporting structures and decision-maker hierarchies inside the companies you care about.

### 6. **Use the Map View for Geographic Insights**

Planning a business trip or conference? Use the map feature to see who in your network lives or works in a specific location — and reach out before you go.

### 7. **Set ‘Keep in Touch’ Reminders**

Stay top-of-mind and nurture relationships over time by setting custom reminders to follow up with key people in your network — before the connection fades.

<Tip>
  Your network shouldn't be trapped across apps, inboxes, and tabs. With Rolodex, you bring everything together into one searchable, organized space — like a digital extension of your memory.
