Thanks for sharing!
Also, if possible, come up with templates so you can just hit a few buttons to respond to new inquiries or send people to fill out a form or survey so that you don’t have to waste a bunch of time writing a new email every time.
Or automate your processes with Asana or some other project management software. Tools for appointments scheduling like https://calday.app/ can be helpful too.
