What's inside · The roster

## Six roles, one for each corner of the business.

The guide walks through where AI agents fit today. Not a rip-and-replace — think of them as capable colleagues you can hand specific jobs to.

**Front of house**

### **Customer Service**

Answers enquiries, complaints and support across phone, email, chat and social — and escalates what needs a human.

**Back office**

### **Administration**

Raises invoices, chases payments and clears the routine paperwork that quietly eats your week.

**Growth**

### **Sales Support**

Qualifies leads, books meetings and keeps prospects warm around the clock, then hands the warm ones to your team.

**Marketing**

### **Social Media**

Creates, schedules and replies across your channels in your brand voice — without needing daily attention.

**Operations**

### **Inventory**

Tracks stock in real time, forecasts demand and reorders before you run out or overbuy.

**People**

### **HR & Payroll**

Handles leave, payroll questions and onboarding, so the back-and-forth stops landing on you.
