Sales routines for Claude: signals and briefs before you reach out
Two templates cover the reading that comes before a sales conversation. One watches public job postings for companies that are hiring for the work you sell. The other researches the company you are about to meet. Both start report-only. Free (MIT). Needs a paid Claude plan.
The job: AI lead generation from public signals
A seller reads two things before reaching out: whether a company is hiring for the work they sell, and who a company is before a meeting.
It is reading and judging, done on a regular rhythm, and the result should be short enough to act on. The scenario below is an example built only from what the two templates do.
An example week with both routines
Say a seller who sells commerce and automation services turns both templates on. It carries no results.
- Monday and Thursday, 22:00 UTC: jobs watch runsIt searches each market in your settings for postings whose title matches a keyword. The defaults are AU, US, CA, NZ and PH, and Shopify, headless, commerce and AI automation. It links each role to its company and puts at most five items in your Inbox by default.
- You open the DeskYou see the few roles that need a person. You keep one, drop another, and the routine learns from those choices. It suggests setting changes, for example a title word you keep dropping. Nothing applies until you say yes.
- Sunday to Thursday, 20:00 UTC: meeting brief runsIt looks 24 hours ahead for meetings that include someone outside your company. For each one it searches for the other company, reads a few pages and writes a short brief with the source of every line.
- You check the sourcesEach line names its source. Two companies can share a name, so the brief is based on the attendee's domain and you can verify the match yourself.
The two sales templates
Jobs watch
Tracks public job postings for commerce and automation roles, links each role to its company, and puts the few that need a person in the Inbox.
Meeting brief
Before each outside meeting, researches the other company and writes a short, cited brief to the Desk.
What it never does
These come from the template prompts. They are rules the prompt forbids and the checks around it. They are not a promise about every possible run.
- The prompt forbids sending, posting, pushing or deleting anything in jobs watch.
- The prompt forbids sending, posting, accepting, declining or changing a meeting in meeting brief.
- The meeting brief stores attendee company domains and the meeting title, not attendee names or addresses. Check that storing titles is acceptable where you work.
- Both prompts treat web pages and calendar text as data, not instructions.
Where to go from here
Read the jobs watch page for the install steps and settings. See the other teams on all use cases, or migrate a workflow you already run in n8n, Windmill or Zapier.
Install jobs watch first
It is the piloted one. Run it report-only, read the first report, then add the meeting brief.
