Workshop · AI for business owners

Your first AI employee.

An AI workshop for business owners who know it matters but don't have time to tinker. No coding, no homework. You watch a real task get handed over, live.

What it's about

You don't learn AI. You delegate to it.

Every time my life changed, it wasn't because I got smarter. It was because I stopped doing the work myself. I learned that the hard way, from a nursing plan that fell apart to a freelance business that only took off once I handed work to other people.

AI is the same lesson. My wife Pia runs our café and has never taken an AI course, yet her team answers customer messages with AI-drafted replies every day. She didn't learn a thing. In this workshop I build one of those helpers on screen, for a real task someone in the room brings.

“I didn't learn it. I just handed it over.”

What happens in the room
  1. The reframeStop thinking apps, start thinking employees. If you can hand a task to a helper, you can use AI.
  2. Your task auditA worksheet to list the jobs you repeat every week, the hours they take, and what they cost in pesos.
  3. One build, liveA volunteer's real headache gets handled on the big screen in minutes.
  4. The bigger pictureThe eight pieces of a business that runs itself, and which one to start with.
