AI Readiness Audit
Everyone says use AI. Find out where it pays, and start there.
I look at how your business really runs, find the three to five places AI would save the most time or money, rank them by payback, and set up the quickest win before I hand over the plan. No jargon and no software to buy unless it earns its keep.

Questions
What counts as a quick win?
Something set up in a day or two using tools you have or cheap ones: a template, an assistant for a repeated task, an automation. Bigger builds go in the plan with a price.
Do we have to buy anything else from you?
No. The plan is yours to act on yourself, with anyone, or with me.
Is my business too small for this?
Not if someone spends hours a week on repetitive tasks. Sole traders and small teams often see the fastest payback, because every hour saved is theirs.
