5 Star Works

Notes from the AI corner

Tools, ideas, and conversations from small business owners actually using this stuff.

This page is where I keep what I've found useful. Tools that earned their keep. Videos from conversations with other owners about what's working and what isn't. Most of it lives here so I can find it again — but if it's helpful to you too, that's the point.

If you'd like to join the conversations live, there's a small Zoom group that meets regularly. Scroll down — sign up's at the bottom.

AI Network for Business Owners

A small group of owners comparing notes on what's actually working.

This isn't a webinar. It isn't a sales pitch. There's no guru at the front of the room.

It's a small group of small business owners — on Zoom, from anywhere in the country — comparing notes on what we're actually doing with AI. What's working. What isn't. Tools that earned their keep. The questions you can't really ask anyone else, because everyone around you is either selling something or pretending they have it figured out.

How many hours a week do you think you're wasting on things AI could handle automatically — if you just knew the right tools?

That's the question worth sitting with. The meetings exist to help you answer it.

How it works

Sixty minutes. Five or ten owners. One or two people share something they tried recently with AI in their business — what they hoped for, what actually happened. Then it opens up: questions, tools getting passed around, the occasional "wait, you're using what for that?"

You can come and listen. You can come and share. You can come once or come every time. There's no fee and there's nothing to buy at the end.
