SAMPLE ISSUE

Let AI email the painters for you

You want a freshly painted room. Somehow, you’ve also signed up to become an email coordinator.

Pick the paint yourself. Let AI help find local painters, write the quote request and send it after you’ve checked the recipients and message.

Paste this into your AI

Help me get painting quotes for [rooms] in [area], around [dates]. Ask what else you need, find three local businesses and draft an email asking about availability, prep and materials. Show me the recipients and message before sending.

In Claude, connect Gmail first using the guide below. No email connection? You can still use the draft and send it yourself.

ONE TO TRY BEFORE YOU FORGET

Those shoes aren’t going to return themselves.

Give your AI the order email and your reason for returning. Then ask:

Check the current return policy. What’s my deadline, are there fees, and how do I start? Draft the request. Flag anything you can’t confirm.
GOOD TO KNOW

Get the visit out of your inbox.

Once the painter confirms a time, ask Claude to add it to Google Calendar. Connect Calendar first and check the date, time and address before it acts.
