COMMON QUESTIONS

## AI and CRM Automation Questions

### Will AI reply to customers automatically?

Only where it makes sense and with agreed safeguards. AI can draft, enrich or support responses while important conversations remain human-led.

### Can you work with my current CRM?

Often yes. I first assess the current tools, data and workflow before recommending configuration, integrations or a better-fit platform.

### What can be automated?

Common opportunities include lead capture, enrichment, routing, notifications, reminders, follow-up tasks, appointment flows and reporting.
