The Contact Distribution List
Turn Bears connections into infrastructure
Your phone has hundreds of contacts. Most of them are dormant. The CDL identifies the relationships with real economic relevance and gives you a framework to activate them systematically.
Map Your Core 60
Identify the 60 relationships in your network with real economic relevance. Not followers. Not connections. Relationships.
Classify by Contribution
Every contact contributes differently. Attention, Collaboration, or Engagement. The CDL classifies each one so you know exactly how to activate them.
Engage with EPIC
Six sequential touchpoints — Educate, Explore, Evaluate, Engage, Execute, Enjoy — turn dormant contacts into active economic relationships.
Cross-Network Visibility
When you and another BIOS member both engage the same contact, the system reveals shared connections — unlocking collaboration you didn't know existed.

Questions
Frequently asked
Start with your first 20 names
You don’t need to map your entire network on day one. Start with 20 names — the Bears you already know. The CDL does the rest: classifying, scoring, and creating a system for engagement that compounds.
Includes the CDL digital tool, EPIC Engagement Framework, and access to the Berkeley alumni network within BIOS.
