ai strategy for small teams.

A practical AI plan built for businesses with 1 to 20 people, not enterprise transformation decks.

in short

AI strategy means honestly looking at where AI actually helps your business and where it's just hype. No expensive pilots that go nowhere, but a concrete plan with achievable steps, from someone who also builds the technology hands-on.

what's included

AI strategy for small business is figuring out where AI actually fits your operation, and where it doesn't. I map your workflows, find the highest-value places AI saves time or wins revenue, and give you a clear, costed plan you can act on (or have me build).

AI opportunity assessment

Workflow & time-loss mapping

Tool selection & roadmap

Use-case prioritisation

Data & privacy guardrails

Team enablement

Build vs buy guidance

Implementation support

why itmatters

AI advice is mostly written for big companies with big budgets. Small teams get hype and tool lists, not a plan. I strip it back to what moves your numbers at your scale, so you spend on the two or three things that pay off, not the twenty that don't.

No hype, no 50-slide AI deck. I find the one or two workflows where AI actually saves you hours and wire it into the tools you already use.

common questions

What's the difference between AI strategy and AI automation?

Strategy is the plan: where AI fits, what's worth doing, in what order. Automation is the delivery: building the workflows and tools. I do both, but strategy comes first so you don't automate the wrong things.

Is AI strategy worth it for a business with under 20 people?

Especially for them. Small teams feel time savings immediately and can move fast. The risk is wasting money on tools that don't fit, which a short, honest strategy step prevents.

Do you push specific AI tools?

No. I'm tool-agnostic and have no resale deals. I recommend what fits your work, budget, and data, including "don't use AI here" when that's the right answer.

What do I walk away with?

A prioritised, plain-language plan: the use cases worth doing, the tools to use, rough effort, and what to do first. You can run it yourself or have me build it.
