Masterclass Season 12: Leverage AI in Your Small Business

Business owners who do not leverage the power of AI tools will find themselves left behind as their competitors deploy AI technology to cut costs and increase efficiency. Imagine choosing not to do business using the internet after it was invented. That’s where we are in 2024 with AI – and why season 12 Masterclasses will focus exclusively on how you can strategically use these tools to keep up with and, in some cases, leapfrog your competitors. From developing strategy at a 30,000-foot level all the way down to granular use cases, there will be something for everyone in this season’s Masterclasses, regardless of AI skill level.

Upcoming Masterclasses

These no-cost Masterclasses will be held every other Wednesday from 12:30-2 pm ET from Aug. 14 to Nov. 6, 2024:
