Hire Your AI Assistant
Bring your laptop. Leave with an AI assistant that knows your business.
FRI, DEC 111 TO 4 PMCOMFORT INN NORTH, KDHFREE FOR MEMBERS
You’d never hire someone, hand them a laptop and walk away. But that’s how most of us use AI, and it’s why it keeps getting your hours, prices and voice wrong.
In three hands-on hours, you’ll onboard an AI assistant the right way, so it actually knows your business. Ask it the questions you’d normally dig through your inbox to answer:
your-business / assistant ● online
YOU · 9:15 AM
Which clients or prospects do I need to follow up with this week? What business is still hanging out there?
YOUR AI ASSISTANT · CHECKED EMAIL + CALENDAR
Here’s what’s open this week:
• Johnson deck estimate: sent 9 days ago, no reply yet
• Coastal Cottages: asked for pricing Tuesday, still waiting on your quote
• Mike at Dune Realty: lunch Thursday at noon, bring the proposal
Want me to draft the follow-ups?

✓Ask it questions out loud with voice mode
✓Snap a photo of a receipt, menu or flyer and ask about it
✓Draft a reply between appointments, send it when you’re ready
