As your client list grows, names alone become harder to scan. You may remember whom you spoke to recently, but you also want to recognize each person’s professional field and find clients who share a specialty.
In ISF Agenda, you can add a medical specialty to a client’s profile. It provides a consistent way to identify and organize the people you work with.
The same specialty, different needs
Dr. Elena R. and Dr. Riccardo V. are both cardiologists. Their shared specialty helps you find them together, but preparing for their visits requires different details.
Elena accepts visits at her Bologna practice on Mondays and at the medical center in Casalecchio on Fridays. Her appointment history includes a request for a product information sheet to bring next time. Riccardo is available in Bologna on Tuesdays and, in our example, is still below his quarterly contact goal. Their locations, visiting days and previous conversations help you decide what to do next with each person.
Keep the classification clear
Each specialty in the app has a name and a color. You can organize the specialty catalog around the professionals you work with and assign one specialty to each client. Searching the client list by specialty name helps you find people in that field.
Now consider Dr. Silvia M., a dermatologist you recently met. Her specialty describes her professional field, while the “first visit” and “follow up” tags describe the next steps in your relationship. Both are useful and can sit alongside each other in her profile.
Keeping those purposes clear makes the list easier to manage as it grows. Use notes and appointments for conversation details, tags for shared needs and next steps, and the specialty for the client’s main professional classification.
Use specialties when planning visits
If you are planning a day focused on cardiologists, specialty can be one of the criteria you use to filter the client list and map. Add city and visiting day to see who may be available in the area you plan to cover.
Then review each profile. You have material to bring Elena, while Riccardo may need another appointment this quarter. The specialty gives you a useful starting group; locations, visiting days and appointment history help you prepare for each person.
