ANECDOTE

How Joyce Reclaimed Time With Bots

  • Joyce built a handful of custom bots while juggling a 9–5, pregnancy, toddler care, and a cross-country move to reclaim time.
  • Those bots acted like her first hires and gave her calendar breathing room so she could work on long-delayed goals.
ADVICE

Audit Real Tasks To Find Bot Candidates

  • Do an audit of your actual work by recording tasks for a few days to find true time drains.
  • Joyce suggests logging tasks and durations (e.g., 3 days) to reveal repeatable chores like FAQs, repurposing content, and onboarding.
ADVICE

Hire Bots By Role Not By Tool

  • Think in roles not tools: define the job description you'd hire a human for and build a single-purpose bot for that role.
  • Examples Joyce gives: content assistant, onboarding coordinator, community manager, or strategist focused on one job.
