AG Digitalz field guide

Automation starts with one real business handoff.

The best first automation is small, repeated, and easy to check: form submit to owner alert, missed call to follow-up, quote sent to reminder, or booked appointment to confirmation.

What it does

Automation

AG Digitalz starts automation with the repeated handoff that is already costing time or leads. That keeps the build practical instead of turning into random tool stacking.

Stack to use

Recommended setup

  • Website form or trigger
  • Netlify Function, Zapier, Make, or workflow tool
  • Supabase, Airtable, HubSpot, or CRM
  • Email/SMS/Slack alert
  • AI summary step
  • Task or reminder stage
  • Reporting dashboard
Common mistakes

What to avoid

  • Automating a messy process before mapping it.
  • No owner for the next action.
  • No failure alert.
  • No record of what happened.
  • Trying to automate everything in V1.

Implementation

Step 5

Add AI only where messy language needs summarizing, tagging, or routing.

Send the owner alert.

07
