Safety boundaries matter

Small business assistants often touch customer communication, marketing claims, pricing, and operations. That makes boundaries essential. The assistant should not publish, promise, discount, charge, or send customer messages without explicit authorization unless pre-approved.

Use project files for campaigns and operations

Keep long-term memory clean. Put campaign details, website tasks, lead follow-up, and operational checklists into project files.

Best starter implementation

  1. Write business facts.
  2. Write brand and claims boundaries.
  3. Create Mission Control.
  4. Create one project lane for the highest-value workflow.
  5. Run one task and verify it.
