## A Good Daily Rhythm

1. Check the dashboard for active chats, AI-enabled chats, channels, workflows, wallet usage, and new customers.
2. Work the inbox from newest conversations first.
3. Use templates for re-engagement, campaign messages, and repeated answers.
4. Keep customer profiles and tags clean while chatting.
5. Review campaign, template, and link reports after sending.

## How It Fits With Plato

Connect360 connects closely with Restaurant customers, orders, products, Drive files, workspace members, domains, tags, wallets, and workflow automation.

That means a customer conversation can include order context, product links, Drive attachments, payment or receipt links, internal notes, AI assistance, and automation rules without leaving the app.
