What they did
An agent template was created for busy parents: it reads the school emails for the kids and every night sends a summary of what needs to go in the backpack, what to wear, what to sign or pay, highlighting sign-ups and deadlines.
How it went
The post presents the template, with no result figures.
Good to know
