Plan, Plan Plan! ✏️✏️ Yesterday we received an interesting enquiry from someone who is opening a new business. BEFORE sending a proposal we had to find out and understand what he needs, so we created a process plan of how the app and automation would work. This will give him an idea of what to expect and what we need to do to match his expectations. #business #smallbusiness #startup #ai #automation

If there's a lot of noise in the marketplace where your company operates (e.g the AI space at the moment), it's important that you establish a clear signal that your target customers can tune into. Noisy marketplaces are confusing to buyers because everyone is virtually yelling at them with hyperbolic statements. Be the friendly, easy-to-understand voice of reason that shows them a way through the chaos. Clear, crisp, and compelling messaging cuts through the noise, guides target customers, and makes it super clear why they should care about your company and why now. #startups

'Perfect measurement from day one' is a myth. And honestly a waste of time. Here's how successful companies actually measure AI impact: Phase 1: Foundation (Months 1-3) • Basic utilization metrics • Direct cost savings • User adoption rates Phase 2: Expansion (Months 4-6) • Process optimization • Quality improvements • Resource efficiency Phase 3: Maturity (Months 7+) • Compound effects • Cross-functional impact • Strategic value 🎯 Pro Tip: Start simple, but start now. Companies that delay measurement burn run way and see lower ROI. #startups #founders #growth
