Action

Pull every contact whose last name starts with U or V from FUB

Filter your sphere database, export the contact list, and run them through the script below. Two letters means roughly 40–60 people for most cycles · about 30 minutes of work spread across Wednesday and Thursday.

Why the alphabet cycle works

Mike Ferry's 13-week SOI rotation is the gold standard. Two letters per week means everyone in your database gets a touch every quarter · without you ever having to remember who you last spoke to. The alphabetical order removes the "I'll text them later" decision fatigue. You just check the cycle and do it.

The script is intentionally not about real estate. The goal isn't to generate a transaction this week · it's to stay top of mind so when they DO need real estate (theirs, a friend's, a referral), there's only one name they think of.
