Is AI actually improving your business, or is it just something everyone feels like they should be using? In this episode, I talk about what I'm seeing with AI in my own business, how companies are adopting it, and what business owners should really be thinking about before jumping into every new AI tool that comes out. AI is changing quickly, and while adoption is growing fast, the return on investment isn't always clear yet—especially for small businesses.
Listen in to learn where AI is actually being used in businesses today, why customer service adoption is still low, and which age groups are using AI the most. I also talk about why small businesses need to be careful about where they invest time and money into AI, and why having a high bar for implementation is important if you want to streamline and grow your business.
