3 automations to start with

  • PRICE: people ask about packages. Example: "Hi {first_name}! Packages start at ₹{price}. Full list: {link}"
  • DATE: people ask if you're free. Example: "Send me your date and city here, and I'll confirm in a few hours."
  • PORTFOLIO: people want to see more work. Example: "My full portfolio: {link}"
