Answer every new inquiry the same day
Each weekday morning Claude reads the requests that came in since the last run, by email or your website form, and drafts a reply to each one: an answer to what they asked, and the details you still need to quote.

Where things are in Claude
- CustomizeConnectors In Claude's left sidebar: connect your email and files.
- /schedule Type it in a new Cowork task to run a prompt on a schedule.
- Scheduled In Claude's left sidebar: what runs, to pause or change it.
- Every weekday at 8:30, read the new inquiries in my email since the last run: messages from people or companies we have not quoted before, and website form messages. Skip any that someone on our side has already answered.
- Judge each one against the "What we take on" document in my Sales folder.
- 1. Sort each inquiry: "good fit, urgent" (it fits and gives a date or a volume), "good fit", "details missing" (it could fit, but we cannot quote yet) or "not for us".
Your manager sees progress and hours. Never what Claude reads or writes.
