AI setup

AI set up properly in your small business, with guardrails

No tech skills needed. I set up AI around how your business runs, keep private data out, and train your staff until it sticks.

  1. 1You askOr a lead comes in.
  2. 2AI draftsA reply, quote or brief.
  3. 3You approveRead it, fix it, OK it.
  4. 4It goes outOnly after your OK.

Who it's for

Owners who want it working, not explained

  • Small business owners anywhere in the U.S.
  • No IT person needed.
  • Staff buried in email, invoices, quotes and follow-up.
  • Security companies too. I ran one.

Not a fit: custom software or big IT rollouts.

What's included

What you get

  • Workflow audit. How work moves through your office.
  • Setup. Connected to your email, calendar and current software.
  • Guardrails. Access limits and your sign-off on sends, payments and deletes.
  • Training. Hands-on, on your real work.
  • Follow-up check-in after go-live.

How it works

Five steps

  1. Intro call

    What eats your week, and whether AI fits.

  2. Audit

    We pick the first 1–3 jobs.

  3. Setup

    Working systems, not a slide deck.

  4. Training

    Plain language, on your real work.

  5. Guardrails

    Clear rules and a one-page AI policy.

Guardrails

What AI does alone, and what waits for you

AI does on its own

  • Sorts and flags email
  • Logs new leads
  • Drafts replies, quotes and briefs
  • Sets follow-up reminders

Waits for your OK

  • Customer replies and proposals
  • Invoices and payments
  • Deleting anything
  • Schedule changes

Never goes in

  • Passwords and access codes
  • Staff files
  • Private customer details

Plus a short AI-use policy and a record of what’s connected.
