From Main Street to AI: The Essential AI Toolkit for Small Business Profitability
While AI dominates tech headlines, how can a traditional brick-and-mortar or local service business actually leverage it without a dedicated engineering team or massive budget?
🤓 A 30 minutes conversation with Julia Costin, 🌱 Tom Herman 🌿, Hector F Restrepo. Moderated by Rosario B Casas, followed by Q&A.
This session, hosted by BCPartners Tech and the Brooklyn2Bogota Digital Transformation Community, cuts through the hype to provide a practical, low-cost roadmap for AI adoption focused on immediate, tangible returns. We are here to show Main Street how to harness the power of Silicon Valley.
Attendees will leave with actionable strategies and specific tool recommendations in three core areas:
AI for Customer Experience: Using generative tools (like Gemini or ChatGPT) for hyper-personalized marketing copy, instant customer support (simple chatbots), and content creation that saves hours.
AI for Operational Efficiency: Simple automation techniques for administrative tasks, scheduling, inventory prediction, and optimizing local delivery routes.
AI for Competitive Advantage: How to use basic data analysis tools and existing software integrations to outpace larger competitors and unlock new revenue streams.
This talk is essential for small business owners ready to transition from AI skeptics to AI users, and for tech leaders/investors interested in the real-world adoption patterns of non-tech entrepreneurs.
