What you build today: A follow-up sheet, a morning reminder, and drafted follow-ups for everyone who has not replied.
Prompt 1: write my follow-ups (copy it, fill the [brackets], paste it into ChatGPT or Claude):
I sent this first message: [paste your first message] About the person: [their role, and what you know about their situation] They have not replied. Write 3 follow-ups: day 3, day 7 and day 14. Rules: under 50 words each. Every message adds something new: a useful tip, an example, or a different question. Never write "just checking in" or "bumping this". The day 14 message closes the loop politely and asks if I should check back later.
Prompt 2: the morning follow-up check (copy it, fill the [brackets], paste it into ChatGPT or Claude):
Here is my follow-up sheet: [paste the rows: name, last message date, next follow-up date, notes] Today is [date]. List everyone whose next follow-up date is today or earlier. For each one, draft the right follow-up (day 3, 7 or 14) using these rules: under 50 words, adds something new, never "just checking in". Skip anyone who already had the day 14 message or asked me to stop.
