Inbound Lead Triage

What this task does

Inbound leads decay by the hour. This task sweeps your inbound inbox, separates real buying interest from noise, scores each against your ICP, and drafts the first reply — so your response time drops from hours to minutes without sending anything itself.

Set up once

  1. Connect Gmail (or drop the inbox export into inbound/).
  2. Confirm your ICP scoring criteria live in product-marketing.md.
  3. Run at your natural inbox checkpoints — start and end of day.

The task brief

Paste this into Claude Cowork:

Review unprocessed inbound emails in [FILL IN: inbox/folder]. Classify each as buying interest, question, vendor spam, or other. Score buying-interest senders against my ICP (High/Medium/Low with a one-line reason), draft a reply for each High and Medium in my voice that answers their question and proposes one concrete next step, and list everything in a triage table.

What you get back

  • A triage table of every inbound with classification and score
  • Drafted replies for real leads, ready for your edit-and-send
  • A spam/noise list you can bulk-archive

Guardrails

  • You send every reply yourself — drafts only.
  • Route pricing or legal questions to your own judgment, not a draft.
