How This Skill Works

When you install this skill, your OpenClaw agent can walk you through:

1. Which workflow to tackle first — based on your biggest bottleneck
2. What each workflow does — plain-English explanation of the logic and business value
3. What you'll need — free tools, credentials, and setup time per workflow
4. What success looks like — what changes in your business after each workflow is live

For the importable JSON files and screenshot-annotated PDF setup guides, you'll need the full pack from Gumroad.

Guided Methodology Flow

When you ask about any workflow, your agent will cover:

Understanding the Problem

Each workflow solves one specific agency bottleneck:

Workflow	Problem It Solves	Setup Time (with pack)
WF01 — Cold Prospect Radar	Manual lead research eating hours	~45 min
WF02 — Cold Email Sequencer	Outreach stops when you stop	~60 min
WF03 — Inbound Lead Router	Leads falling through the cracks	~20 min
WF04 — Client Reporting Bot	Manual report assembly every week	~45 min
WF05 — Proposal Follow-Up Engine	Proposals going cold, deals lost silently	~30 min

If you're unsure where to start: WF03 (Inbound Lead Router) is the fastest win — 20 minutes from zero to automated. You'll see it working the same day.

Understanding the Architecture

Each workflow uses only free-tier tools:

• Google Sheets + Gmail OAuth — WF01, WF02, WF04 (one-time Google Cloud Console setup)
• Airtable (free tier) — WF02, WF03, WF05 (your CRM layer)
• Tally forms (free) — WF03 (webhook trigger for inbound leads)
• n8n — self-hosted on any $5/mo VPS, or n8n Cloud free tier (5 active workflows)

No paid APIs. No Hunter.io, Apollo, or GPT-4 API billing.

Understanding the Value

Why these 5 and not 50?

Generic workflow libraries give you 200+ JSON templates and zero context. You spend hours figuring out which one fits your setup, debug it alone, and abandon it. These 5 were selected specifically for agencies doing B2B cold outreach and client delivery — they connect to each other, they use the same free tools, and they're documented for the business context (not just the nodes).

The goal: import, wire credentials, test run, go live. One workflow per session, all 5 in a week.

Recommended Deployment Order

1. WF03 — Inbound Lead Router (fastest win, 20 min)
2. WF05 — Proposal Follow-Up Engine (stop leaking deals)
3. WF01 — Cold Prospect Radar (proactive outreach)
4. WF02 — Cold Email Sequencer (outreach at scale)
5. WF04 — Client Reporting Bot (professional reporting)

Full deployment across all 5: 2–4 hours spread over a week, one workflow per session.
