    AI
    Foundations

    Most businesses don't have an AI problem.
    They have a clarity problem.
    Six weeks. Six modalities.
    One clear strategy.

    The Challenge

    AI Is Moving Fast.
    Most Businesses Aren't.

    The tools exist. The opportunity is real. But most business owners are stuck between two extremes — either completely overwhelmed, or using AI for one thing and calling it done. Neither is a strategy.

    01

    Too much noise

    A new AI tool launches every week. Without a clear framework for what matters, you end up chasing features instead of building capability.

    02

    No practical foundation

    Most AI content is either basic tutorials or enterprise-level theory. There's very little built specifically for business owners who need to apply this now.

    03

    Tools without context

    Knowing how to use ChatGPT is not an AI strategy. Understanding which modalities matter for your business — and why — is what actually changes outcomes.

    04

    Confidence gap

    The businesses that will win the next five years aren't the ones with the most AI tools. They're the ones whose teams actually know how to use them.

    What Changes

    From Curious
    to Confident.

    Six weeks of live, hands-on sessions covering every major AI modality — so you finish with a complete picture, not just one piece of it.

    The Curriculum

    Six Weeks.
    Six Modalities.

    Each week goes deep on one pillar of modern AI — not surface-level overviews, but real tools, real demos, real application to your business.

    How It Works

    Live. Practical.
    No Nonsense.

    Live Sessions

    Every session runs live with Rob. Concept deep-dives on Wednesdays, tool demos and open Q&A on Fridays. You can ask anything.

    Recorded Library

    Every session is recorded. Miss a session or want to review? Everything is available on-demand after each week. No FOMO.

    Ongoing Community

    Access to an active learning community and office hours for Q&A and personalized support — even after the six weeks are done.

    Completion Certificate

    Finish all six weeks and receive a completion certificate — a signal that your team has done the work.

    No Prior AI Experience

    Built specifically for business owners — not developers or tech teams. If you can use email, you can do this program.

    Immediate Application

    Each week is designed around your actual business. You're not building hypothetical case studies — you're applying what you learn to real work in real time.

    Is This For You?

    Built For
    Business Owners.

    This is not a developer course. It's not an enterprise AI program. It's a six-week sprint designed specifically for people who run businesses and need to understand AI well enough to use it — and lead with it.

    This is for you if...
    • You run or lead a small to mid-size business
    • You're curious about AI but don't know where to start
    • You want practical skills, not theory
    • You're a Chamber member or association leader
    • You want your team AI-capable, not AI-dependent
    • You're ready to actually commit six weeks to this
    This isn't for you if...
    • You're a developer looking for a technical deep-dive
    • You want a self-paced course with no live interaction
    • You're looking for a done-for-you AI implementation
    • You expect overnight results with no effort
    • You're not willing to show up and do the work

    Get On
    The List.

    The next cohort opens end of summer. Waitlist members get first access, early-bird pricing, and a heads up before spots open to the public.

    No spam. Just one email when the cohort opens — and early access before anyone else.
