Most businesses don’t have an AI problem.

They have a “someone has to remember to do this” problem.

That’s where automation can help.

If a task happens every week, follows the same steps, and causes problems when someone forgets to do it, it probably shouldn’t live in someone’s head anymore.

Things like:

Following up with new leads
Sending appointment reminders
Updating a CRM
Creating client folders
Sending onboarding emails
Sending invoices
Chasing unpaid invoices

None of these tasks seem like a huge deal by themselves.

But when they pile up, they waste time, create friction, and cause mistakes that could have been avoided.

So instead of asking:

“How can I use AI?”

Ask:

“What keeps happening in my business that still depends on someone remembering to do it?”

That’s usually where the best automation opportunities are hiding.

Before you buy an AI course, try this first.

Most AI courses are built for everyone, which means they are usually not built for your actual situation.

Your work, goals, bottlenecks, and skill level are specific to you.

So instead of learning 20 random AI tools, start by using AI as your personal teacher.

I built a prompt that interviews you one question at a time, learns your context, and gives you the 1 to 3 highest-leverage ways to use AI based on your actual goals.

No hype. No fluff. Just a personalized AI learning path.

Comment “course” and I’ll send it to you.

Most people are still using AI like it’s just a smarter Google search.

That’s not where the biggest win is.

The real win is using AI automation for the repetitive work that eats up your time every week.

Follow-up emails. Proposals. Invoice follow-up. Document prep. Client intake. Status updates.

If a task is repetitive, predictable, and happens over and over, it’s probably a strong candidate for automation.

I put together a prompt you can drop into ChatGPT or Claude that helps you figure out:
what to automate, where AI fits, and what to tackle first.

Comment audit and I’ll send it over.

AI alone isn't the answer. If you're drowning in busy work, comment "Audit" and I'll send you the prompt that will help you identify what should be automated and gives you a step by step guide on how to implement

Most business owners I know are great at their craft. They're terrible at getting out of their own way.

If you're still doing the same manual tasks every week that you were doing two years ago, nothing is going to change until you fix the system, not the schedule.

Perplexity just dropped something worth paying attention to.

They launched their own local AI agent setup, and if you've been following what OpenClaw has been doing on the Mac Mini, this is going to look very familiar. Mission control, daily summaries, multi-task ex*****on, voice input (basically Whisper Flow built in), PDF to presentation conversion — all of it controllable from your phone while your computer runs the show at home or at the office.

The demo showed it ranking job candidates by SwiftUI experience AND drafting an investor email with a briefing link — at the same time. From a voice command.

What stood out to me is that every single task in that demo was business-related. This isn't a consumer toy. This is aimed squarely at people who need to get real work done.

So the big question: is this an OpenClaw killer?

I genuinely don't know yet. But I think the more interesting story is that local AI agents are now mainstream enough that Perplexity is building for that audience.

That's a signal worth noting.

What do you think — does this change anything for how you're thinking about AI tools for your business?

If you’re still doing your follow-ups, weekly reports, or appointment reminders manually — this is your sign to stop.

Claude AI now lets you schedule tasks so your AI handles the repetitive stuff automatically. Every morning, every Friday, every month — whatever cadence you need.

The best place to start? Not the flashy stuff. Start with the task you either dread every week or keep putting off because you hate doing it. That’s your first automation. And it costs as little as $20/month to get started.

Drop a 🙋 below if there’s a task you wish you could hand off to AI right now.

Most small business owners feel like they’re already behind on AI. But here’s the thing — you don’t have to be the one who figures it out. There’s almost always one person on a small team who is naturally curious, likes learning new tools, and just hasn’t been pointed in the right direction yet. Give that person 30 days to figure out how AI can make their own job easier. What usually happens is they save themselves a few hours a week, start seeing the same opportunities everywhere else on the team, and quietly become the person who makes everybody’s job easier. No big initiative. No expensive consultant. Just one person with permission to go learn. This video is the full blueprint.
