    The Business Owner’s Guide to AI (Without the Overwhelm)

    AI is no longer optional. Your competitors are using it to work faster, cut costs, and outmaneuver you, while customers expect the same level of speed and personalization. But if AI still feels like a complicated, intimidating mess, you’re not alone.

    In Let AI Do It, follow Myron Luddite, a stubborn, old-school business owner, as he reluctantly discovers that ignoring AI is costing him time, money, and customers. Through his misadventures, you’ll see how AI can simplify business operations, eliminate tedious tasks, and free up time for real growth. This book explores where AI actually makes sense in a small or mid-sized business, how to automate and optimize without losing control, and why the biggest myths about AI are keeping so many entrepreneurs stuck in outdated ways of working.

    This book isn’t just a story—it’s a practical guide for business owners who want to stay competitive without feeling overwhelmed. It includes a step-by-step AI Integration Worksheet to help you pinpoint exactly where AI can have the most impact in your business and how to implement it without the usual stress and uncertainty.

    If you’ve been curious but cautious about AI, this book will show you exactly where to start—without the jargon, hype, or headaches.
