Hire your first AI Employee
Objective
Deploy an AI Employee on your own business first, then put a receptionist to work for a client: teach it to book appointments and train it to answer accurately. Once that first hire earns its keep, the same moves grow the roster, put it on autopilot, and turn it into something you sell.
Outcomes
✓You have a working AI Employee answering for a real business
✓It books appointments on a real calendar and routes calls by business hours
✓You can audit what it knows, fix the source, and prove the fix held
✓You can package and price a workforce for clients
