➡️ Concrete Next Move

Open your Gmail Drafts. Send the Thomas buy-in email. Personalize the opener if it doesn't sound like you. Once Thomas replies with driver #1, the rest of the system activates in sequence — Cody runs vetting, Compass matches the first load, Pulse handles broker comms, Marshal claims the accessorials, Ledger sends the Friday recap.

The whole system is loaded, primed, and waiting on ONE human action: the Thomas email sent today. Everything downstream cascades from there.
