In this session, business owners will learn what AI really is (and what it isn’t), how it’s being used right now to save time and reduce costs, and where it can create immediate value without replacing people or processes. Designed for non-technical leaders, this presentation focuses on real-world examples, common business use cases, and simple ways to get started without overwhelm. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how AI can support marketing, operations, and decision-making in their own businesses.
