SUMMARY:Stop Playing with AI - Lunch & Learn
DESCRIPTION:Stop Playing With AI. Start Putting It to Work.\nAI Beyond Posts\, Pictures & Prompts\nMost business owners have experimented with AI. Maybe you’ve used it to write an email\, create a social media post\, brainstorm an idea or generate an image. \nBut that’s only the beginning. \nJoin Debi Katsmar of Prowl Communications for a practical Lunch & Learn exploring what AI can really do for your business beyond content creation. \nWe’ll talk about ways AI can help with research\, sales preparation\, customer service\, meetings and follow-up\, operations\, documentation\, data analysis\, decision-making and repetitive day-to-day tasks. You’ll also discover how AI can work alongside the systems and tools you already use to save time and improve efficiency. \nAnd because using AI effectively isn’t simply about finding another tool\, Debi will also cover some of the things business owners need to think about — including accuracy\, privacy\, confidential information and knowing when human judgement still needs to lead the way. \nThis is not a technical AI session. It’s a practical conversation for business owners\, managers and professionals who want to move beyond playing with AI and start figuring out where it can actually make a difference in their business. \nWednesday\, September 9th12:00 pm – 1:30 pmSideline Social89 Meadowvale Dr.\, St. Catharines \nCash at the door: $5 for members | $9 for non-membersLunch: Purchase your own lunch from Sideline Social. \nBring a Guest — Attend for Free!\nBring a non-member guest  and both you and your guest attend the Lunch & Learn free. \nAnd if you’d like a little extra exposure for your business\, bring a door prize — completely optional\, but always appreciated. \nCome for lunch\, meet other local business professionals\, and leave with a better understanding of how to stop simply experimenting with AI and start putting it to work. \n
