ECHO™ Role Libraryby ECHO Consulting

Workflow · RL-WF-01 · v1.0

Answer new inquiries

Every new inquiry gets a same-day draft. You approve the exact text before anything goes out.

The ECHO line

Complaints, refunds, and anything legal, medical or urgent skip the AI draft and go straight to a person.

The inquiry loop for owner-run businesses. Each message is sorted and gets a same-day draft, and only the exact text you approved goes out. Messages from a customer's AI take their own branch, and the ones that need a person come straight to you.

Steps

  1. Reply Desk

    Sorts each message: an ordinary inquiry, one for a person, an off-list job, an unclear request, or a customer's AI.

    A fast, low-cost model: this step runs on every message.

  2. Reply Desk

    An everyday assistant, or your messaging tool's agent in suggestion mode.

  3. Agent at the Door

    If the sender is a customer's AI: drafts a reply with fact-sheet details only, asks for a direct way to reach the person, and notes anything it was asked to confirm.

  4. ④ Invitation

These are samples. Fill in the [INSERT] blanks and adapt each one to your business.

A pasted role guides the agent. Your tool's settings are what stop an action.

Settings that enforce it

  • Turn on approval before anything sends (often called "Suggestions", "Review before sending" or "Always ask").
  • Connect one channel to start. Add another only after [INSERT] weeks of clean drafts.
  • Give it free/busy calendar access only, without event details.
  • Set your tool's handoff topics for complaints, refunds and urgent messages, so they reach a person with no AI reply.
  • Keep each draft saved beside the original message, where you can read it.
  • If your tool can't do one of these, leave that part of the job with a person.

One check before you trust it

Send three test messages: an ordinary inquiry, a refund request, and one that says "I'm an AI assistant booking for my user." The first should get a draft for your OK, the second should come straight to you with no AI reply, and the third should get public facts only and a request for the person.
