It's been three years since I ran my first AI workshop for business and marketing.
A LOT has changed (the number of hands that go up when I ask "who has used Chat GPT?" for one thing).
And, some things have stayed true.
We all know that AI is moving fast.
As soon as you've mastered one tool, it feels like everyone is now talking about the new kid on the block that you 'must' have.
For business owners, leaders and teams it’s becoming harder to work out what actually matters.
So later this month, I’m running an updated AI workshop for business and marketing, focused on:
=> What’s changed in AI (and why it matters)
=> Where AI is delivering real value
=> Using AI to save time and improve quality
=> Responsible AI in your business
=> Live examples + simple workflows
=> Real talk - budgets and the AI software bill
And, of course, there will be a few practical ways to use AI to step away from the desk and spend more time on what actually matters (whether that's time with your family, in nature, or time ON the business).
If that sounds useful, you can find the details here:

We're limiting it to 12 places so that it can be a really practical, interactive session - and it's first come first serve.
Also, as part of our impact model - if you're a social enterprise or not for profit, let us know and we'll offer this at 50% off (just hit 'reply').

Marketing, digital systems, web design - when they're not working for your business and bringing in leads and sales; business owner stress is the result.
So... I might give something a trial for 5 business owners (details below). First, here's the back story.
I jumped off a marketing coaching call last night feeling brilliant.
During the session the business owner transformed from stressed and overwhelmed to
- fired up with a clear vision
- greater clarity on how to get there and
- practical next steps.
Frankly, it's one of my favourite things to facilitate and witness.
And, I can't wait to see how that translates into results for them!
So, it got me thinking.
Basically, the only way people can access these coaching calls at the moment is through a program run by one of our partners (local government, accelerators, etc.).
What if I trialled offering them direct?
How it would work:
=> you book and pay
=> we jump on a 1hr call together
=> you share what you want us to focus on for the session, and we get cracking.
What it's ideal for:
- A marketing challenge or opportunity you need some additional brain power on.
- Reviewing marketing activities you are currently doing (or have tried)
- When marketing has you down and you need a fresh perspective / set of eyes.
What it's not
- A full strategic deep dive: this session is best for focused support on one marketing challenge, with practical guidance and clear next steps.
What do you think? Would you be interested?
