Re:Show HN: Monica, an open-source CRM to manage friends and... by pedalpete on Tuesday June 06, 2017 @06:21PM (#14501960)
Congrats, this looks really nice, the feedback you're getting here is a good bit of proof that you're on to something people like.

My first reaction to the "CRM to manage friends..." was, what? Why do I need a business tool for my personal life.

I wonder if there is a better terminology than CRM. You bump up against the social network on one end, and a person tool on the other.

I wrote an executive summary for my business last week, and the feedback I got from an advisor was that they loved the idea that there are these two big existing markets, and that their is a middle-ground between them which hasn't been addressed. I think that is what you've got here, it needs to be named. I haven't quite been able to name mine yet either, so I'm not suggesting this is easy.

What do other think? Is the CRM a good label for a personal tool?

CRM = Customer Relationship Manager, so not really an ideal term for something personal. Perhaps 'PRM', but then nobody knows what that stands for.
