Why This Workshop
Most business owners know AI should be changing the way they work, but struggle to see how to make it tangible.
This workshop will take you from “I should be learning AI, but don’t have time” or even “I’m experimenting with prompts and trying new tools,” to learning how to use AI to make better decisions, build faster systems, and scale smarter. Without wasting months guessing where to start.
Over the past two years, Matt Symes has helped founders across industries do exactly that—using AI to accelerate workflows, strengthen teams, and reclaim capacity. We’ve seen enormous success in productivity gains, from 600 hours/year recovered in proposal writing at a small construction firm to saving over $469k in a single process area for our own business.
What You’ll Experience
Part 1: The State of AI in the Workplace
Learn what’s actually happening inside high-performing organizations:
Why 60% of knowledge workers now use AI daily—and what the top 20% do differently
The Fractional Integration model: how real businesses are experiencing 30% productivity increases that compound year-over-year, without full-scale automation
Where AI really fits in your workflow (and where it doesn’t)
Part 2: Guardrails, Ethics, and Real-World Adoption
Avoid the pitfalls that cause most AI rollouts to fail:
How to create a practical “AI Principles Guide” for your company
Navigating Shadow AI safely (tools, data privacy, and policy)
The 10-80-10 Rule: the human-AI-human workflow that keeps output both efficient and accurate
Part 3: The 3 Business Leverage Points
Discover where AI delivers the biggest ROI in small and mid-sized service businesses:
Sales & Marketing: How to find and qualify better leads, prepare faster for sales calls, and personalize outreach at scale
Delivery & Operations: Using AI to cut administrative load, create SOPs, and unlock higher-margin capacity
HR & Leadership: How to write sharper job ads, improve onboarding, and use AI as a “coach in your pocket” for managers
Part 4: Real Use-Cases to Start Using Today
Turn insight into action:
Identify 1–2 immediate AI wins in your core processes
Map your workflow bottlenecks and match the right tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or specialized apps)
Walk away with a custom mini roadmap for the next 30 days

What founders are saying …
Andrew Oland,
Moosehead Brewery
“We only have so much capacity to get stuff done. And we want to be working on the most important things. They reinforce the importance of really truly finding what the most important things are.”
Syd Vanderpool,
Syd Fi
“It has really affected our ability to not just grow but do it in a way that is manageable mentally, which has been really good for family life”
Phillip Robinson,
Trunk 7 Contracting Ltd.
“We were a very reactive company. We didn’t have a whole lot of processes in place, the time management skills were probably not the best, so this created a lot of bottle necks. Turns out we don’t have to struggle with those, there are ways around that”
