Run a side hustle with three agents for content, email and books
A working parent uses three agents: one researches and drafts content, one handles client emails and books calls, one categorizes Etsy income and expenses and writes monthly summaries.
Done with a custom-built or unnamed agent
- What they did
- Nova gave each of three agents a narrow job with fixed boundaries. The researcher gets a niche, audience and approved sources, then returns an outline and draft. The ops agent drafts client emails in her voice and books calls around her calendar, with no calls before 9am or after 3pm. The finance agent categorizes Etsy income and expenses, flags oddities with a one-sentence reason, and writes a monthly summary. She reviews and edits the output.
- How it went
- She reports about 6-8 hours reclaimed per week. Content drops from 3-4 hours per piece to about 40 minutes of editing. No accuracy figures are given for the finance agent.
- Worth knowing
- The post doesn't name the tools or models used, so you'd have to choose your own. Her advice is to keep each agent's scope narrow, with no overlap between them.
