The 6 AI Employees I Use to Run My Business
Imagine having a team that handles your email, social media, blogging, sales, and even phone calls. They work 24/7, never take a day off, and cost a fraction of what you would pay a full-time employee. Sounds too good to be true, right?
That is exactly how I run my business today. And the secret is something called AI employees — virtual team members powered by a tool called Marblism.
In this post, I’ll walk you through how these AI employees help me manage my entire business, what they actually do day to day, and how you can start building your own AI team too.
What Are AI Employees?
Think of AI employees as digital team members trained to take on specific business tasks — like replying to emails, writing blog posts, managing your social media, or finding leads.
Each one is powered by artificial intelligence but feels surprisingly human to work with. You can talk to them in plain language, give them instructions, and they’ll learn your preferences over time.
The best part? There’s no coding, no automations to build, and no complex setup. You simply choose which “employees” you want, connect a few tools like Gmail or LinkedIn, and they start working for you.
Let me show you the six AI employees that currently help me run my business.
1. Eva – My Executive Assistant 📨
If you’re like me, your inbox can easily take over your day. Emails, follow-ups, random pitches — it never ends.
That’s where Eva comes in. She’s my AI executive assistant who manages my entire inbox.
Eva reads my emails, learns how I write, and starts drafting replies in my tone and voice. She also organizes everything into categories like to respond, for your interest, or marketing, so I can instantly see what actually needs my attention.
When someone sends a proposal or a partnership inquiry, Eva drafts a thoughtful reply right inside Gmail that I can quickly tweak and send. She even filters out spam and can schedule meetings or send reminders when needed.
Since using her, I’ve saved hours every week that I used to waste writing repetitive emails.
👉 Setting her up only takes a few clicks. You just connect your inbox and start working together.
2. Sonny – My Social Media Manager 📱
As a video-first creator, I spend most of my time producing YouTube content. That means I don’t always have the time or energy to also create text or image-based content for platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, or Facebook.
That’s where Sonny steps in.
He’s my AI social media manager who keeps my brand active everywhere I should be — without me having to post manually.
Every day, Sonny suggests post ideas based on what’s going on in my business. He then writes captions, creates visuals, and even schedules posts automatically.
If I want, I can review everything before it goes live. But I usually just let him handle LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram on autopilot.
What makes Sonny unique is how flexible he is. You can ask him to write about anything — a product launch, a milestone, or even a simple reflection — and he’ll generate a well-written, visually appealing post every time.
💡 For me, Sonny has been a game-changer for consistency. My audience sees my content across multiple platforms, even when I’m not actively posting.
3. Penny – My Blog Writer ✍️
Blogging has always been one of those things I want to do more of, but rarely have the time for. It takes hours to plan, write, edit, and optimize every post.
That’s where Penny, my AI blog writer, helps out.
Penny writes full blog posts for me — complete with images, formatting, and internal links between related articles. She even optimizes for SEO keywords that are relevant to my business.
Since using Penny, I’ve noticed some of her posts already starting to rank on Google. That’s a big deal because it keeps bringing organic traffic to my site without any extra work from me.
Penny works a lot like Sonny. She messages me with content ideas, drafts articles, and even includes visuals or quotes to make them more engaging.
🧠 If you run a website, she can publish directly to WordPress, Shopify, or Webflow with one click.
For me, Penny helps me stay consistent with written content and cover topics that I wouldn’t always make a video about.
4. Stan – My Sales Rep 💼
Let’s be honest. I hate prospecting.
Most of my leads come to me through inbound channels — people who watch my videos or read my newsletter. But of course, everyone can use more business.
That’s why I hired Stan, my AI sales rep.
Stan finds potential customers, sends personalized outreach emails, and follows up automatically. He even books meetings when someone replies with interest.
For example, in just a couple of weeks, Stan booked two B2B meetings for me on autopilot. Since I work with higher-value clients, that’s a meaningful result.
Stan can search a massive database of over 700 million leads based on filters like location, job title, or industry. You can also import your own lead list or tell him in plain language who you want to target.
💬 It’s like having a sales development rep running in the background — finding opportunities while I focus on content and strategy.
5. Rachel – My Receptionist ☎️
Now, my business isn’t phone-based, but I wanted to see how an AI receptionist would work.
So I added Rachel to my team and gave her a phone number. Then I put that number on my website for a few days — just to test it out.
In three or four days, I got about five calls. One of them actually turned into a booked meeting.
Rachel can answer questions about your business, transfer calls, or even schedule meetings directly on your calendar. After every call, she sends you a summary and transcript so you can review what happened.
For me, I took the number down since phone calls aren’t really part of my process. But if you run a local or service-based business — think roofing, plumbing, or coaching — this could be a game-changer.
⚡ Setup takes seconds. You get a phone number instantly and can customize what she says or does right from your dashboard.
6. Linda – My Legal Assistant 📑
Finally, there’s Linda — my AI legal assistant.
Since I deal with sponsorship agreements, licensing terms, and partnerships all the time, I used to rely on ChatGPT for a quick review. But the responses always felt generic.
Linda fixes that.
She’s trained on my business, so her feedback is specific and relevant. When I upload a contract or document, she highlights the sections that might need attention and even suggests better phrasing or clauses.
💼 It saves me time before sending anything off to a real lawyer.
If you handle contracts or agreements frequently, Linda is a huge time saver. She can even draft new versions based on your templates or adjust documents for different use cases.
What Makes AI Employees Different
While you could technically piece all these tasks together using ChatGPT, custom automations, or multiple niche tools, that takes time and technical know-how.
Marblism makes it intuitive and human.
Instead of feeling like you’re configuring software, it feels like you’re onboarding real people you can talk to in plain language. You tell them what you need, they adapt to you, and they keep getting smarter over time.
Each AI employee works well right out of the box, but the more you customize and guide them, the better they get. Just like a real hire, they improve as they learn your business.
After three months, they feel like true team members who know your tone, your processes, and your priorities.
How to Build Your Own AI Team
The best part is that you don’t have to hire all six AI employees at once.
Start with one — the area where you feel the biggest gap or need the most help. Maybe it’s your inbox, your content, or your sales outreach.
Once you get comfortable with one AI employee, you can gradually expand your team.
Here’s a simple starting point:
If you’re overwhelmed by email: start with Eva.
If you need consistent social posts: go with Sonny.
If you want more website traffic: add Penny.
If you need new leads: bring in Stan.
If you get constant calls: let Rachel handle them.
If you deal with contracts: train Linda.
Each one works independently but together they create an automated business engine that runs 24/7.
Final Thoughts
We’re at a point where AI can do far more than just generate text or images. With tools like Marblism, you can now delegate actual business functions to AI employees who are fast, reliable, and constantly improving.
The key is to treat them like real hires. Give them clear instructions, refine their settings, and check in occasionally to make sure they’re aligned with your goals.
Once you do that, they’ll keep getting better — and you’ll start reclaiming your time for the parts of your business that truly matter.
