AI on Autopilot with Rick Mulready

The Future of Your Business Includes AI Agents… And They’re Not as Complicated as You Think

In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and AI-savvy entrepreneur, Rick Mulready, to talk about something that's been blowing my mind lately → AI agents.

You’ve heard about ChatGPT, and if you’re an overachiever, you’ve even dabbled in CustomGPTs. But AI agents are the Mac Daddy of them all. Think, responding to data in real time, anticipating your project needs, and making reason-based decisions for you. And the best news? You don’t need to be techie to start using them in your business.

Rick breaks it down in the most approachable way… from what AI agents actually are, to how to start using them today to save time, improve workflows, and scale with less stress. Whether you're a solopreneur or you have a team, this episode will shift the way you think about efficiency and growth.

HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

1️⃣ AI Agents Aren’t Just Fancy Chatbots, They Can Do the Work for You – AI agents don’t just complete one task. You can give them goals, set parameters, and they’ll take action, like researching, writing, posting, and even responding, without you lifting a finger (after you’ve trained them, of course).

2️⃣ Start Small, But Start Now – You won’t nail it on the first try (and that’s okay!). Rick explains how to begin with simple tasks like social media posts or inbox filtering so you can build confidence and see results fast.

3️⃣ The Right Tool + The Right Workflow = Magic – Tools like Relay.app make it simple to build workflows and integrate AI agents into your business. And when you pair that with ChatGPT and clear context, you’ve got a powerful team member working 24/7.
