Artificial intelligence isn’t the future, it’s the advantage.
AI is changing how businesses operate — and small businesses can’t afford to sit on the sidelines. This hands-on program is designed to help businesspeople understand how to actually use AI in practical, everyday ways to save time, improve marketing, streamline operations, strengthen customer communication, and uncover new growth opportunities.
No tech background required. No confusing jargon. Just real-world tools, strategies, and examples you can start using immediately. The businesses that learn how to use AI effectively will have a major advantage in the years ahead. The good news? You don’t have to figure it out alone. Seats are limited so register now and learn how to put AI to work for your business.
Facilitated by Doug Zawisza. Doug has spent more than 25 years leading learning opportunities throughout the industries of advertising, legal, accounting, technology, media, software, consulting, construction, automotive, and nonprofit. This combination led Doug to be a contracted facilitator specifically selected by the Chamber of Commerce Foundation for Small Business B(AI)sics sessions. Doug and his wife, Lisa, live in Michigan and are proud parents of 3 young ladies who are leading their own adult lives. Be sure to give Doug the crispest of high-fives when you see him.
