The Curriculum

Four sessions. Real results.

Each session builds on the last. By the end you’ll have a clear AI strategy for your specific business — not a generic overview.

AI Foundations for Small Business

What AI actually is, what it can and can’t do, and where it fits in your specific business. We cut through the noise and start with what matters to you.

Finding Your AI Opportunities

We map your workflows and identify the 3–5 places where AI can save you the most time and money. Personalized to your business, not a generic checklist.

Prompting That Actually Works

Using the DESIGN™ framework, you’ll learn how to communicate with AI tools so they give you useful output — not frustrating garbage.

Your AI Action Plan

We pull it all together. You leave with a written AI strategy for your business — tools, workflows, and next steps you can implement immediately.

This is for you if…

The right fit.

✓

You own or run a small business and want to use AI but don’t know where to start

✓

You’ve tried AI tools but felt frustrated or overwhelmed by the results

✓

You want practical, hands-on guidance — not another generic webinar

✓

You’re ready to commit to 4 sessions and actually implement what you learn

✓

You want a small group where your questions actually get answered

This is NOT for you if…

Not the right fit.

You’re looking for large-scale corporate training

You want advanced technical AI development or coding instruction

You can’t commit to attending the sessions live

You’re not open to trying new tools in your business
