The problem it solves

When you add a new client or customer in Xero, sending a warm welcome email often falls through the cracks because you're busy running the business. Writing one by hand every time is repetitive and easy to forget.

Who it fits

Fits a small business or bookkeeping practice that wants every new client to get a professional first impression automatically.

How it works

  1. Triggers the moment a new contact is created in Xero
  2. Confirms it is a brand new contact, not an update to an existing one
  3. Pulls the contact's name and details from Xero
  4. Builds a personalized HTML welcome email
  5. Sends the email through your email service
What you get

First impressions every new client gets automatically

Every new Xero contact receives a personalized, professional welcome email the moment they're added to your books.

What you get

A personalized welcome email delivered to each new Xero contact.

What you need

A Xero account and an SMTP email service such as Gmail or Outlook.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
