Talks

Ready-made talks, or any session as a talk.

Signature talk

Apps Are the New Spreadsheets

"Stop paying rent on someone else's software."

Software subscriptions are getting shaken up, and tools that used to take a dev team are now within reach of a small business. What that means for the apps you pay for, with a live demo that turns a spreadsheet into a working dashboard.

Signature talk

Agile Teams in the Age of AI

"This is the worst AI will ever be."

How a small team should plan, meet and ship when AI does a growing share of the work. What changes, what stays the same, and the traps, like busywork that looks like progress.

Marketing talk

Google Isn't the Only Search Engine Anymore

"Your customers are asking ChatGPT now, too."

How people find local businesses through ChatGPT, Gemini and AI search, how those tools pick who to mention, and the practical steps that help you show up.

Starter talk

Where AI Is Headed for Small Business

"What to act on, and what to ignore."

A plain-English tour of the tools worth knowing and where things are going over the next year. Built for rooms where most people are just getting started.

Who books talks

Good fits for a talk.

Chambers of commerce

Lunch programs and member events where most of the room owns a small business.

Franchise groups

Owner meetings and regional gatherings. One talk, every location on the same page.

Trade associations

Contractors, builders and service trades who want AI explained in their terms.

Company all-hands

Get your whole team using the same tools the same way, with time for their questions.

Lunch-and-learns

A one-hour session over lunch, in person or on Zoom.

Networking and founder groups

Coworking spaces, founder communities and business networking groups.

The format

What a talk looks like.

A short planning call

Who's in the room, what they already know, and what you want them to walk away with. Free.

About 45 minutes of talk and live demos

I show the tools working, not screenshots of them. The deck itself is a web app I built with AI, which is part of the point.

About 15 minutes of questions

The best part. Real questions about real businesses.

Have a room that needs an AI talk?

Tell me about the group and the date. We'll set up a short call to plan it.
