... actually happening in your company. When someone says "I'll send that over by EOD" in Slack, that is just text. A Jira issue with no activity for 6 days is just a stale card.

The problem: Service businesses (plumbers, HVAC, cleaners, painters, landscapers) do great work but are terrible at following up with customers. They never ask for reviews, never remind people to rebook, never ask for referrals. It's all manual or it just doesn't happen.

I wrote about our product, our features, our roadmap. I followed all the "best practices" hook in the first line, three takeaways, call to action at the end. I got maybe 30 likes per post.

... freelanced for years and tried every invoicing tool out there. Sent invoices faster. Added late fees. Wrote polite follow-ups. Nothing really moved the needle. Then I realized something: the moment I delivered final files, I had nothing. The client had everything they needed. My invoice was just another task on their list, competing with a hundred other priorities. The issue wasn't how I invoiced. It was when I invoiced - after all my leverage was gone.

Comment from Caspar Jee(@chaw_chan_jee): The workflow I never looked back on: inbound request auto triage assign follow-up reminders status update back to the requester.
