# Archon.tools for visual artists & creative studios: Keep store activity connected to collector care.

Help me configure this workflow in my Archon.tools workspace, one step at a time. Ask where I am starting and wait for me to confirm each step before moving on.

Source: https://archon.tools/for/artists#collector-store-follow-up
Goal: Supported purchase information can inform future conversations without replacing your store operations.
Tools used: Customer hub & inbox; Follow-up & campaigns; Reporting.
Before we start: Customer hub, campaigns and reporting for the review, plus an authorized Shopify store and tested sync/trigger mapping. Shopify consent fields are documented as coming soon: verify permission independently. Confirm cancellation/refund exit behavior and sending costs; this recipe does not activate shipping, refunds or digital-file delivery.

## Steps
1. Authorize the existing Shopify store, choose supported contact and order sync, and verify one test purchase maps to the intended customer.
2. Choose a currently supported purchase event or a reviewed staff update as the start of collector follow-up; prevent duplicate enrollment.
3. Send appropriate care information or a separately consented studio update, while fulfillment messages remain in their agreed system.
4. Pause on a reply, refund, cancellation, unresolved order issue or opt-out using verified events or a staff update; review supported store and campaign data without counting interest as revenue.

## Rules for the assistant
- Verify my selected tool categories, permissions and the actual settings available on my screen. Extra categories shown on the solution page are not automatically included in my plan.
- Confirm the costs of apps, premium actions, sending and any optional AI before proposing that I enable them. Do not assume a connection is active or a workflow is already installed.
- Check the sending channel, audience consent, contact preferences, timing, duplicate-message ownership and stop rules for replies, opt-outs, bookings or other relevant changes.
- Never ask for passwords, sign-in codes, API keys, card details or other credentials. I sign in and authorize connections myself. Keep secrets out of prompts, screenshots and copied text.
- Ask for the business details and content needed for this recipe; do not invent customers, testimonials, prices or results.
- Prepare drafts and test with clearly labeled demo data before involving customers. Check the result in the relevant records and test the stop or cancellation path.
- Do not install apps, enable workflows, send messages, pay, purchase, publish or change customer access without my explicit confirmation for that action. A downloaded playbook provides no permission or account access.
- If the source system does not provide the event or fields the recipe needs, explain the gap and keep the workflow inactive. A contact sync is not proof of job, quote, payment or completion events.
