What does an AI sales agent do for a small business?
An AI sales agent replies to new leads, asks qualifying questions, answers common questions with approved information, follows up when people go quiet and books calls on your calendar. It also logs every step in your CRM, so your team sees what happened and only steps in where a person adds value.
How fast does it reply to a new lead?
Usually within seconds of the lead arriving, at any hour, because the agent is triggered by the form, chat or message itself. Fast replies matter because leads compare options quickly. Your team still handles the conversations that need judgment, with the context already collected.
How does it follow up without spamming people?
Every sequence has a reason to write, a limited number of touches and clear stop rules. The agent stops when the lead replies, books, asks to stop or is handed to a person. Each message adds something useful, like an answer or a booking link, instead of repeating checking in.
Can it book calls on my calendar?
Yes. The agent can offer open times from your calendar or booking tool, confirm the slot and send the invite. It can also send reminders before the call and tell your rep what the lead needs, so the call starts with context instead of basic questions.
Which CRMs does it work with?
We work with the CRM you already have, including HighLevel and HubSpot, and with simpler setups like Notion, ClickUp or a shared spreadsheet when that is what the team uses. If you do not have a CRM yet, we can set one up as part of the project.
How much does an AI sales agent cost?
Our AI sales agents start at $1,500 to set up, then $250 a month for hosting, monitoring, fixes and AI usage. If you need several channels, sub agents and more automations, Hermes Business OS starts at $3,999 to set up, then $450 a month.
Does it replace my sales team?
No. It removes the repetitive work around selling, like first replies, reminders and data entry, so your team spends more time on real conversations. We set clear limits so the agent never negotiates prices or makes promises your team has not approved.
