If you aren’t even totally sure where your business's bottlenecks are, take another step back. Ask AI (ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini are great options to start with) to analyze your systems or data.

(NOTE: Make sure to turn off the "Train the Model" setting in your account 𝘉𝘌𝘍𝘖𝘙𝘌 doing the below.}

You can upload CSVs, Excel files, or PDF reports, and put in prompts like…

• "Analyze this sales export from last year. Which products have the highest margins and which ones are plateauing?"
• "Look at this customer list. Can you segment them into 'VIPs,' 'At-Risk,' and 'New' based on their purchase frequency?"
• "Review these operating expenses. Where am I seeing the biggest month-over-month increases?"
• "Here is my current onboarding process for new clients. Where am I likely losing time or risking human error?"
• "I’m considering a subscription model versus a one-time fee. Can you list the pros, cons, and a break-even projection for both?"
• "I'll describe my competitor's service. Tell me three areas where I can differentiate my customer experience to save time while adding value."

These kinds of questions aren’t meant to replace your judgment. The conclusions and applications can be incorrect, or not the most important ones YOU or a skilled advisor would identify.

But they can surface patterns and gaps faster than working through the material alone. And we're available to help you take the insights even further for your business.

Measure tangible outcomes like reduced operational costs, increased output capacity, and improved customer lifetime value.

Start by asking these questions:

1. 𝘐𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘈𝘐 𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺?
Time saved only matters if it is reallocated to high-value tasks or results in lower overhead. So, consider whether your AI initiatives are actually allowing your team to spend more time on higher-revenue-generating activities.

2. 𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘈𝘐 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘭𝘴?
You should be able to see how AI activity connects to actual sales outcomes. Track your conversion time, deal size, and close rates before and after AI adoption.

3. 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘪𝘯 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦?
If AI helps you write a blog post in 30 minutes instead of two hours, your productivity should allow you to use that extra time to take on more clients or finish a project that was gathering dust.

Ask yourself, are we producing more deliverables this month than we did last month?

4. 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳?
Monitor response times, customer satisfaction scores, retention rates, and repeat purchase behavior. Then evaluate how those changes affect customer lifetime value, not just short-term feedback.

5. 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘈𝘐 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴?
Track whether forecasts are becoming more accurate and how quickly leadership can access usable information. Better data should translate into better outcomes.

If you’re about to start a new project in your business, pause. Calculate. How much more weight will the tasks put on your employees' shoulders? Do they actually have the capacity for that? Because if your quest for profits ends up pushing your employees over the edge, you may just wind up spending those profits on replacing them.

What new projects are brewing in your business right now?

If you’re like most owners, at least one of these probably shows up every week.

The reality of running a business is that these issues never disappear completely.

But the more systems you put in place, whether for admin work, client communication, team management, or financial tracking, the more time you free up to focus on actually growing the business.

Cash flow is the heartbeat of your business.

One simple habit that helps: review your cash flow every week.

When you monitor cash flow regularly, surprises become much less common and decision-making becomes much easier.

Keep an eye on the numbers, and you keep the heart of your business beating strong.

Imagine a local HVAC company using AI to forecast summer inventory demand.

Their system includes last year’s sales data... including a few massive bulk orders from a commercial developer who later went bankrupt.

The AI sees the numbers and assumes the same spike will happen again.

So the owner takes out a short-term loan and loads up on inventory.

That inventory sits in the warehouse for almost a year.

The takeaway?

𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝘁.

Before using forecasting or financial modeling tools, make sure your data:
• Doesn’t contain duplicates or obvious errors
• Focuses on the most relevant time period (often the last 24 months)
• Flags unusual events so they aren’t treated as normal patterns

An algorithm can’t tell the difference between a one-time fluke and a repeatable trend unless you show it.

Most people are naturally one or the other.

Your habits around money don’t just affect your personal life. They impact your taxes, cash flow, and business growth too.

So tell us… which one are you?

"𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗺 𝗜 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀?"

Most entrepreneurs struggle in Year 1 because of the small, "invisible" costs that aren't in the business plan but hit the bank account every single month.

For example, credit card processing and bank fees usually eat 3–5% of your top-line revenue before you even pay a bill. Then there's the "breakage" factor—a cracked laptop or a dead printer can derail a month’s profit if you don't have a line item for repairs.

You also have the wave of annual "rent" fees just to keep the doors open, like State Reports and business licenses.

Our golden rule is to add a 10% buffer to your monthly operating budget.

If you’re an experienced business owner, what was the "hidden" expense that caught you off guard in your first year?

Want to know if you're spending too much on your media subscriptions? This free tool can tell you how much you're spending: https://visualize.nguyenvu.dev/

(There are a number of paid tools that can help with this as well, if you prefer: https://money.usnews.com/money/personal-finance/saving-and-budgeting/articles/track-and-manage-subscriptions-with-these-apps )

And no... you probably can't claim a deduction on any of those either.

Look for the three R's: 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦, 𝘳𝘶𝘭𝘦-𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳. If a task happens every week, follows a set of predictable steps, and doesn't require high-level emotional intelligence, it’s a prime candidate for AI.
