How does email management work for SaaS?
Support mail is converted into tickets so it stops living in a mailbox. Sales inquiries are qualified against your profile, routed to the right rep and logged in HubSpot. Billing mail, invoices and dunning notices go to finance with anything urgent flagged. Vendor and procurement mail is answered from templates or routed. Security questionnaires from enterprise prospects are logged and passed to your team, never answered by the assistant. Press, partnership and investor mail reaches the founder as a one-paragraph summary rather than a thread. Recruiter mail is filtered out. What is left at the end of the day is a short waiting-on-you list, usually four or five items, each with enough context to reply in a sentence.
