Draft a we-found-it email when a wantlist record lands
Every morning, WebRun opens Common Ground, compares the records you added to stock against your saved customer wantlists, and for each match it drafts a personal we-found-it email in Mailchimp naming the title, condition, and price, then pings your Slack so someone can review and send it before the copy sells.

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it email my customers without me?
No. WebRun drafts a personal email for each match but leaves it unsent. A person reviews and sends it, so no customer is contacted automatically and you can tweak the wording first.
Is this a bulk email blast?
No. Each draft goes to the single customer whose wantlist matched, naming the exact record they wanted. It is a one-to-one note, not a mass campaign, so it reads personal.
How does it avoid re-alerting the same customer?
It records which wantlist matches it has already drafted and skips them on later runs, so a customer is not emailed twice about the same copy sitting in stock.
