1) Choose repeatable, measurable work
The best automation targets are tasks that happen often, take time, and follow consistent rules: customer FAQs, lead qualification, internal reporting, document summaries, and routing requests to the right team.
2) Define a success metric first
Before building, define what “better” means: shorter response time, fewer manual steps, higher conversion rate, or less operational cost. This keeps the project focused and makes ROI visible.
3) Add guardrails from day one
AI should be helpful, not risky. Implement safe boundaries: approved knowledge sources, escalation paths to humans, and clear rules for what the system can and cannot do.
4) Integrate with your workflow
AI wins when it’s connected: CRM, email, spreadsheets, databases, and internal tools. Automations should reduce clicks, not add more dashboards.
