Watch EverAsk handle an email task
A real EverAsk run, played back.
- 1You ask in your own words
- 2EverAsk does the work
- 3The follow-up waits in Gmail
Replayed at an easy pace to follow.
A replay of EverAsk at work. The request typed was: Write a polite follow-up email to James Holt at Brightwater Print and save it to my Gmail drafts. Don't send it. I emailed him eight days ago asking for a quote for 200 printed brochures and haven't heard back. I need the quote by this Friday so I can place the order in time. Keep it short and friendly, and sign it Linda. EverAsk then worked through 8 steps and replied. The draft "Following up — quote for 200 printed brochures" was saved in Gmail, not sent.
