n8n tip: set an Error workflow in Settings. Free prompt (written to match my packs) that turns the error payload into a clean Slack alert. Replace the {{…}} values and test before use.

Built an n8n automation that recovers missed customer calls, starts an AI conversation, checks CRM context, routes urgent requests, and tracks callback SLAs until the customer is handled.
nice that it tracks the callback until someone actually handles it. which businesses is this built for, trades or more like clinics
Business owners: you get one AI automation free this month. Which one do you take?
A. AI support inbox. Every customer email gets a drafted reply in your tone. You read it, click approve, done. Nothing goes out without you.
B. AI lead qualifier. Every new lead is scored, summarised and dropped into your CRM with the next step, so you only call the ones worth calling.
Both run on n8n + OpenAI, connect to the tools you already use (Gmail, HubSpot, Slack, Sheets) and take me about a day to set up.
Vote below. Then comment with what is eating most of your week right now. The 3 most painful answers get it built for free and I will post the before and after here.

The one day setup estimate holds only if your existing Gmail and HubSpot data is already clean. Most businesses spend longer fixing inconsistent tags or messy history before the AI can actually qualify leads accurately.
If you ship features fast but users don't use them, it's usually one of two reasons:
The feature doesn't solve the core problem yet
Users can't tell how to finish the job with it
Tooltips and guides don't fix either one. They add more for users to read and more for the team to build.
Before you add anything, ask two questions:
What do we want users to do here?
What's stopping them?
Then remove what doesn't help them get there. In a complex workflow, that's usually a step, a field or an option nobody needed.
Remove first. Build only what's still missing. Build less. Get more of it used.
