See you tomorrow at office hours 11:00 am - reply to this email if you don’t have the invite.

First - this email isn’t going to be always Tech - though this one is.

The sand keeps moving under us, and those who maintain agility will dominate . This is how AI agents and chatbots aren't buzzwords—they're game-changers to efficiencies and profit.

Always on staff with no batteries.

1. AI Agents Are Evolving—And So Should You

AI agents have transformed into autonomous assistants that can handle complex tasks without you lifting a finger. Giants like OpenAI and Microsoft are pushing this evolution forward.

Action Step: Look at repetitive tasks in your business that eat up time. Automate them with AI agents to boost efficiency and free up your team for more important work.

See the example uses of Salesforce’s Agentforce below.

2. From Basic Bots to Intelligent Assistants

We're not talking about robots that just spit out scripted lines. Modern AI assistants understand context, manage workflows, and even make decisions. They're like adding a top-performing team member without the payroll hit.

Action Step: Implement an AI assistant to enhance customer engagement and streamline operations. Your customers get better service, and you get a leaner, more efficient business.

3. Build Your Own AI Agents

You don't need to be a developer to develop your own AI agent. User-friendly tools and platforms have leveled the playing field.

Action Step: Start experimenting with AI development platforms. Create custom solutions tailored to your business needs without getting lost in technical jargon.

• AgentGPT: An open-source tool to deploy AI agents easily. Check it out on GitHub.

Don’t let it being on github scare you - look at the video and details below on the main page.

Don't Overthink It.

The tools are accessible, the benefits are real, and the only thing standing between you and increased productivity and profits is taking action. Businesses that integrate AI will outpace those that don't—it's that simple.
