It’s the 11th month of 2024, and AI is everywhere. Even ChatGPT now has SearchGPT, a feature that’s challenging Google and Bing. And your competitors are using AI to work faster, smarter, and cheaper. To be exact, 72% of businesses use AI for at least one part of their work. Meanwhile, you may still be doing things the old way. You might be asking yourself: Am I falling behind in a world where AI is becoming more common? Can my business stay competitive if I don’t start using AI? How do I get started with AI when it seems so difficult? It’s okay to be worried about AI. But the thing is, AI can be helpful in many ways, yet it’s not suitable for everything. So how can you use AI in your business without making big changes to your whole routine and keeping a good balance? Your Simple AI Plan: Start SmallJust start with something small that matters to you or your business. ➡️ Step 1: Find one task that takes a lot of time. ➡️ Step 2: Look for one AI tool that can help with this task. ➡️ Step 3: Try it out and learn. This is your first step into AI! If you’re still wondering what to choose, here are 10 AI tools for small business owners, and even for almost every kind of business, that I believe could be gold. What do I think about all this AI stuff?Use it to help you work better, but don’t let it do all your thinking for you. For example, when I write these newsletters, I ask Perplexity AI to research industry statistics and suggest different ways to explain concepts. But I don’t just copy-paste its response. Instead, I read through the suggestions, double-check any important numbers, and then rewrite everything in my own words - the style you’re reading now. AI helps me save a lot of time on research, but the final message you read is still mine. So what I learned from using those tools is, things would be better when people learn to work WITH AI, not those who work AGAINST it or ignore it. Cheers, Minosh. |

Okay, you probably saw this already, right? That $3.99 lavender tote bag from Trader Joe’s went viral on TikTok and turned into a whole thing. People were lining up, stores had to set limits, and next thing you know, resale listings were popping up everywhere, like eBay, Etsy, you name it. So yeah, it looked like just a simple product, but that was not the real story. The thing is, the bag did not blow up just because it was limited. It blew up because people already cared. That is the part...
It was 2009, and that’s when Chrome launched. Google had many things they could’ve shown: tabs, security tools, settings, and all the other stuff it had. But instead, it led with one simple idea: speed. “The Fast Browser.” And that worked. They used this line over and over in different ads. It’s strong. But stop for a second and think about why all those features were not mentioned by Google. That reminded me of something a lot of business owners do by accident. They try to make their offer...
Cooking a full meal in 5 minutes used to sound impossible. Now that’s basically what AI is doing for content. Business Insider explained that companies like Mondelēz can now turn an idea into a short social video in under five minutes, Coca-Cola uses AI in campaign idea generation, and Svedka even used it in a Super Bowl ad. And when it comes to the bigger picture, agencies are even testing ad ideas with synthetic focus groups before spending money on production. In other words, what that...
