AI in Service Businesses

Our agency offers a Business AI Agent systems which we customize to each home service client. Essentially our system will answer all inbound calls, qualify leads and schedule appointments on our client’s calendar. There are a few other tied in features as well. So far that we feedback that we are getting from our clients has been great. This is one way that you can leverage an AI agent in your local business. 

I use AI receptionist and find it to be great! However, it does make some mistakes with client names, so it's important to confirm details with clients. Also, ChatGPT really helps get everything right.

We use ChatGPT a lot and there is other features within ChatGPT like Sora - still exploring for image and video creating.  And there is search option within ChatGPT

Yes! I am currently building one but I used ChatGPT and DeepSeek before I started building me own.

We started using Claude.ai as an alternative for Chat GPT.  Its very business oriented and great coming up with business plans, marketing plans and educational materials as just a start.

We use AI Front Desk (https://www.myaifrontdesk.com/?via=m-s) as one of our 2 business numbers to answer our phone calls. We program it with everything about our business and services.  It can give out pricing and answer questions about our business.  It will email us a transcript of the conversation.  We also set up a call transfer workflow that connects it to our Jobber AI receptionist.  It can also transfer calls directly to staff members.  It is working well for us right now.

We are also looking into using Nowsite for social media as it has AI features to assist with creating relevant posts to engage your audience and this an area we currently need to improve on.

Hello,

I have just started using AI

My favorite go-to tool for daily research and document polishing writing starting points is Perplexity.ai—an outstanding AI-powered search engine that truly transforms the way you find and interact with information.
By combining advanced natural language processing with real-time web searching, Perplexity delivers precise, up-to-date answers in a conversational style. It goes far beyond traditional search engines by offering direct, context-aware responses, complete with clear citations for every answer.

Perplexity’s versatility makes it invaluable for researchers, writers, professionals, and anyone with a curious mind. Standout features like voice search, content generation, seamless follow-up question handling, and cross-device integration make it a breeze to use. Its intuitive interface and powerful AI models save you time by cutting through the noise and delivering clarity, accuracy, and actionable insights tailored to your needs.

What I appreciate most about Perplexity.ai is its commitment to transparency: it almost always provides citations for fact-checking, so you can see exactly where the information comes from—a crucial safeguard, especially since AI can sometimes generate inaccurate or “hallucinated” content.

You can do a bunch of free searches every day, no sign-up needed—but if you create a free account, Perplexity.ai will save your search history, get to know your vibe, and even suggest the perfect Halloween costume that matches your unique style. How cool is that? 🎃👻
