Get the 31-Skill SMB Playbook
Anthropic shipped 31 pre-built Claude Skills for small business owners that plug into 12 connectors you probably already use — QuickBooks, PayPal, Stripe, HubSpot, Canva, Slack, Square, Block, Microsoft 365, Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Drive. This is the operator's index — every skill, what it does, which connector it plugs into, and the 5 to run this week. THE 5 TO RUN FIRST: /cash-flow-snapshot (90-day cash forecast in 5 min from QuickBooks + PayPal + Stripe), /invoice-chase (drafts overdue reminders matched to each payer's tone — most owners find $2k-$10k recoverable on day one), /lead-triage (scores HubSpot leads by fit + engagement, drafts follow-ups), /monday-brief (one-page Monday ritual: cash, sales, pipeline, top 3 to-dos), /contract-review (NDA/MSA/vendor contracts, red flags in plain English — catch one bad clause and the skill pays for Claude for a decade). THE FULL 31 GROUPED BY JOB: MONEY 10 (cash-flow-snapshot, plan-payroll, margin-analyzer, price-check, invoice-chase, month-heads-up, month-end-prep, close-month, tax-prep, tax-season-organizer), SALES & CRM 6 (call-list, lead-triage, crm-cleanup, crm-maintenance, sales-brief, quarterly-review), MARKETING 3 (content-strategy, canva-creator, run-campaign), BRIEFINGS 3 (monday-brief, friday-brief, business-pulse), CUSTOMERS 4 (customer-pulse, customer-pulse-check, handle-complaint, ticket-deflector), SETUP HIRING & LEGAL 5 (smb-router, smb-onboard, job-post-builder, contract-review, review-contract). THE STACK MATH: most SMBs run ~$750/mo across a part-time bookkeeper (~$400), HubSpot Starter + add-ons (~$200), and a contract review service (~$150). The honest line: Claude doesn't replace your accountant — it replaces the monthly grind your accountant charges hourly for. Keep the accountant for hard quarters. Let Claude run the rest.
