In this episode of AI in Action, Eric Housh and Zack Terry dig into one of the most overlooked aspects of AI adoption: governance. Not the Fortune 500 version — the practical, business-level decisions every company using Claude needs to make about who has access, what data goes in, and what controls are in place.
Zack walks through the specific governance tools available in Claude Enterprise, from role-based permissions and usage policies to data classification and admin controls, and explains how to think about risk based on your industry, your data, and your specific use cases.
This episode is for business leaders who are using Claude or evaluating it and want to make sure they're building on a solid foundation.

Eric Housh and Zack Terry cover how a high-growth biotech firm handled a corporate split that left their support team drowning in repetitive tickets about shipping and results. FSM helped them stand up a new Salesforce Service Cloud instance and build an AgentForce AI agent grounded entirely in a newly created knowledge base.
They dig into how retrieval augmented generation and vector search let the agent answer only from vetted business data, when it escalates a sensitive question to a human, and how a 40% deflection rate changed the team's capacity from day one.
Useful for any regulated or customer-support-heavy business weighing how to bring AI into a system without sacrificing accuracy.

Eric Housh and Zack Terry dig into a real implementation with a university fundraising team sitting on a database of over 100,000 donor records — and no reliable way to know who to call first. The problem wasn't missing data. It was that the data lived in silos across HubSpot, making it nearly impossible to surface the right relationships at scale.
Zack walks through how FSM used HubSpot's data agent to pull together contact history, giving records, family relationships, and event attendance into a single scoring output — high, medium, or low — so the team could stop guessing and start making targeted outreach decisions. The result is a system that applies senior staff expertise automatically across thousands of records.
This episode is for any nonprofit, development team, or relationship-driven organization wondering whether their CRM is actually working for them.

Eric Housh and Zack Terry walk through a real Agentforce implementation at a talent placement firm drowning in routine candidate inquiries. Status update emails were scattered across inboxes, LinkedIn, and phone calls, leaving the team no time to actually place candidates.
The solution was a service agent built to retrieve live application data from Salesforce, translate internal status codes into candidate-friendly language, and flag priority candidates for human follow-up. All without exposing internal data or requiring a human in the loop.

Eric Housh, Zack Terry, and Fast Slow Motion CEO and founder John Burdett sit down to announce that FSM is now offering Claude AI implementation services — not just AI features inside Salesforce or HubSpot, but Claude as a business platform in its own right.
The conversation covers what that service actually includes: AI strategy and governance, platform setup and administration, team adoption, custom agent and workflow development, data and systems integration, application review, and role-based training. John and Zack also break down what separates businesses that are getting real results from AI from those still stuck at the proof-of-concept stage.
This episode is for business owners and operators at every stage — whether you're just starting to explore AI, trying to get traction after a few false starts, or ready to make sure what you've already built is secure and built to scale.
