In this episode, Corey talks with AI automation strategist Ashley Gross about how businesses can build an AI agent that engages website visitors, answers questions, and books demos around the clock. Ashley walks through the workflow behind her own implementation — from capturing conversation data to syncing with CRM tools — and shares how automation helped her reclaim time and tie AI initiatives directly to revenue. They discuss practical ways small business owners can start using AI, including training agents on SOPs, integrating with existing tech stacks, and focusing on high-impact use cases first. The conversation also explores common mistakes to avoid, such as overwhelming agents with too much data, and how AI insights can inform content and marketing strategy.
