The Local Business AI Operations Checklist

Are enquiries answered quickly and consistently across phone, website, email, social, and Google Business?

Is there a clear sequence after a quote is sent, or does follow-up rely on memory?

Do customers receive clear confirmations, reminders, and next steps without repeated manual typing?

Are repeated customer questions turned into reusable responses or still written from scratch?

Do new clients submit the right information in one place before work begins?

Are missing documents, receipts, IDs, invoices, or statements tracked and chased systematically?

Can the owner see what is waiting, late, or forgotten without checking every inbox manually?

Are receipts, invoices, and supporting details prepared before month-end or BAS pressure hits?

Do staff have approved scripts, templates, and SOPs for common situations?

Is there a simple weekly rhythm to catch missed leads, admin gaps, and customer follow-ups?
