I run a one-person 3D animation studio and built 6 specialized AI team members using Claude Cowork plugins. Episode 3 is Reid, a biz dev assistant. Reid researches prospects, finds decision-makers, studies recent campaigns, drafts specific outreach, tracks follow-ups, builds pre-call briefs, and helps with broader positioning. The pipeline does not go dark when I am heads-down on client work.

Scenario
A solo creative business cannot deliver client work and maintain the sales pipeline at the same time. The author needed the pipeline to keep moving while he was producing.
💬
Prompt
Act as Reid, my business-development assistant for a one-person 3D animation studio. Research target companies, find the right decision-maker, inspect recent campaigns or launches, identify a specific visual-production angle, draft concise outreach, track outstanding follow-ups, and prepare call briefs when a prospect replies.
✨
Expected Result
Reid finds a real angle for each prospect instead of sending generic templates, tracks outstanding replies, drafts non-desperate follow-ups, and produces pre-call briefs. It does not replace relationship judgment, but keeps biz dev from going dark during delivery periods.
