objections

  • objection: Can we trust AI with technical advice?
    response: Test recommendations against experienced technicians on representative jobs and retain human responsibility for diagnosis.
  • objection: Will customer follow-up feel intrusive?
    response: Review message content, timing and consent controls, and run a small pilot before expanding.
