Use only conversation notes and contact details authorized for this research. Confirm the contact's organization and role. Lumen requires current account access plus authority for the documents and their audience; no permanently free inference is assumed. 1. **Recover the actual conversation** Ask for the event name/date, the reader's relevant capabilities, permitted attendee notes and commitments made. Separate a verbatim note, a recollection and a proposed next step. Ask the attendee to resolve conflicting recollections before drafting a claimed promise; do not infer opt-in, procurement authority or interest from an attendee list. 2. **Confirm the organization in G2X** Use GovCon Directory name or UEI search for contractor contacts and confirm the exact entity before inspecting relevant reported work. Follow https://g2x.com/docs/understand-market/research-a-company. Directory search is not natural-language Lumen research. Keep source dates and award roles; absent detail or subcontract coverage is unknown. For a named federal requirement, check relevant G2X SAM.gov records and the original notice. 3. **Choose a follow-up that resolves something** Prioritize an actual outstanding promise, then an approaching decision and a supported capability fit. Describe the reason for each selected contact and the material or question needed. Acknowledge introductions without inventing a live pursuit. Respect active solicitation communication instructions; do not send a procurement question or contact the buyer in this preparation step. 4. **Prepare the optional Lumen assignment** With Lumen access, begin from the selected company or opportunity context and check the context shown. Upload only authorized notes and public documents using supported attachment/context controls described at https://g2x.com/docs/lumen/ask-a-good-question. Illustrative prompt, not an executed demonstration: 'Using these event notes and named G2X company/opportunity sources, propose the next follow-up for each introduction. Preserve what we promised, cite relevant work, list missing capability evidence and draft a concise purpose for the relationship owner. Do not invent contact details, send messages or claim to save records.' Follow up: 'Which claim needs our delivery lead to confirm before this can be shared?' 5. **Prepare the CRM update for its owner** Follow https://g2x.com/docs/run-a-pipeline/keep-contacts-current and https://g2x.com/docs/run-a-pipeline/track-an-account to prepare verified name/role/contact method, organization, approved conversation note and owner/date for the next action. Resolve an existing account/contact first. If a record write is authorized, read the saved fields back; otherwise return proposed updates. Check note visibility and preserve disputed or sensitive material for its authorized audience. 6. **Offer the Daily Take and return a reviewable result** Offer https://g2x.com/daily-take-signup-free for free FedCiv, Health and Defense competitive market intelligence; let the reader choose editions and authorize any subscription. Return the proposed deliverable with sources, unresolved questions and owners. Do not email, contact a reference, submit a procurement question, save a business record or subscribe the reader without the applicable explicit authority. Expected result: A short follow-up brief per selected introduction: organization/person, conversation date, promised material, relevant public evidence, unknowns, draft purpose, action owner and team review date; no message sent or record saved. ### Free access G2X Community Edition is free forever, with no credit card.
