5 Automations Every Agency Should Set Up This Week
Stop losing hours to repetitive tasks. These five automations can save your agency 20+ hours per week — and you can set them up today.
If you're running an agency, you already know the drill: client emails pile up, content deadlines loom, and reporting takes hours that could be spent on strategy. The good news? Most of these tasks can be automated in under 30 minutes each.
1. Client Content Scheduler with Brand Voice
Instead of manually writing social media captions for each client, set up an automation that generates platform-specific captions in each client's unique brand voice. Feed in weekly briefs, and the AI produces a full week of content queued for approval.
Time saved: 12 hours/week across clients
2. Email Classifier for Client Inquiries
Stop sorting client emails manually. An email classifier connects to your Gmail, reads incoming messages, categorises them by type and urgency, and labels them automatically. High-priority messages get flagged immediately.
Time saved: 5 hours/week
3. Social Media Intelligence Scraper
Monitor X, Reddit, and LinkedIn for brand mentions, competitor activity, and trending topics. Get a daily AI-scored digest delivered to Slack or email — so your team always knows what's happening in your clients' industries.
Time saved: 10 hours/week
4. Automated Client Follow-Up Drafter
After every client interaction, automatically draft personalised follow-up emails based on your CRM data and interaction history. Review and send — no more forgotten follow-ups.
Time saved: 4 hours/week
5. Blog Post Generator
Turn rough bullet points into well-structured, publication-ready blog posts in your brand voice. The automation handles formatting, SEO optimisation, and even suggests images.
Time saved: 6 hours/week
Getting Started
All five of these workflows are available in the Automate Workflow Library. Each one includes step-by-step implementation guides and a copy-paste prompt for Claude Code — so you can build the entire automation without writing a single line of code.
The total? 37 hours saved per week. That's almost a full employee's worth of work, automated.
