Description
You've heard about AI for two years. You still don't really know what to do with it. Half the advice is hype. The other half is fear. Neither helps a small business owner who wants to know: what can this actually do for me, and where do I start?
That's what this class is for. No jargon, no software pitches, no "10x your productivity" promises. Just practical examples of what AI can and can't do for a small business, with a plan you can use Monday morning.
What we'll cover:
- Which AI tool to use for what (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini aren't interchangeable)
- How to talk to AI/create a prompt so you get useful answers
- How to spot AI in other people's writing, posts, and emails
- What's safe to share with AI and what isn't
- Budgeting for AI tools (free tiers, paid plans, hidden costs)
- Three places in your business AI could save you hours
Walk out with a plan to reclaim 5+ hours a week.
Free to attend. Lunch and refreshments provided. Registration required (seats are limited).
