Thoughts? I’ve managed IT professionals throughout my career. I have a tech background but mostly work in business development now.
I came here just because I want to start something like this as well. It’s great to see there is momentum. My plan is to offer secure integration of different Ai models using the company’s unstructured data. I feel like there’s huge value for companies to be able to get insights from their data. For example product teams could benefit by gathering data from different tools and then be able to query the Ai about different trends, feedback, segmentation of customers, etc.
I’m at the point of refining my niche and offering and if you want to have a chat my DM is open!
Do it.
Why not put out a few feelers??
Speak to a few potential clients and run ideas by them or listen to what their current problems are.
Do you actually work with Ai tho? Like whats your background in that area?
Can I work pro bono with u?
For sure! I am a supply chain consultant and can tell ya. There is a huge space for growth. We could be partners in some projects. Flick me a message. Let’s talk.
Jesus. AI is the new NFT. Not every business needs AI, especially small businesses. AI does however have a place in bigger corps that rely on complex processes and systems to get work done.
I’d say go for it. I have a similar approach, but with less of a product background (more focused on marketing / sales). My goal is to use ai automation to help consultants/small businesses automate workflows through chatbots and AI assistants
Learning a lot from just asking customers what business problems they have. Ai is too vast, businesses don’t know what they don’t know. Solving a niche solution like onboarding is what I’m focusing on now.
I’m starting to play in this sandbox too, clients are too busy running day to day and I believe a retainer model ( Saa$ like monthly fee) to focus on exploring innovation / disruption in their market for their services / product THRU embracing some form of AI is a sweet spot…
I think once non devs ( I’m a cX design thinker) can build out a single ai assistant easier that focuses on a single stream, I’ll be happy still need to go down the rabbit hole and do tons of research, but I agree with exploring this space 👍 💯
What kind of AI? For types of small businesses?
Go for it! I am doing some similar work, and a lot of organisations, globally, have no idea how to, or people in the companies can’t because they would be “stretch” roles. Just make sure you sell the benefits of what you are doing, not the underlying machinery, or you will lose the commercial people making the decisions.
We run an established business in fin services field where we have been offering this service for about 12 months. Happy to chat if you want to colab
