› Coordination

Each channel references the others: the DM mentions the email, the email the call. Otherwise it's spam across three channels.

› Value first

At least one in three touches delivers value without asking for anything back.

› Signal = reset

Any new business signal restarts the sequence. Context beats the calendar.
