From Bottlenecks to Breakthroughs: Jen Lehner on Harnessing AI for Business Growth

In this episode, Fredrik sits down with digital marketing strategist and CEO, Jen Lehner. They discuss her career helping small businesses find efficiency through smart digital solutions and how the role of AI has impacted her work. She shares her insights on why some AI tools initially felt more like a chore than a help, and how the release of ChatGPT changed the game for her. KEY TAKEAWAYS Early AI tools often required so much tweaking and editing that it felt easier to start from scratch. The release of ChatGPT was a game-changer for many, demonstrating the true potential of AI to automate tasks and streamline work processes. One of the most powerful and underrated features of AI tools like ChatGPT is the ability to use a microphone to speak and have a conversation, rather than typing. A great way to get started with AI is to give it context by telling it about yourself and your business, as this will lead to better and more personalised output. Companies can use AI to upskill employees, freeing them from mechanical tasks so they can focus on more meaningful work. BEST MOMENTS "At the end of the day, I was always kind of left with, 'my gosh, I have to tweak this and repair it and edit it so much, I might as well just start from scratch.'" "It's like having the highest paid consultant in the world, living inside your computer." "The way that I look at it, it's giving us superpowers." "I'm determined to get AI to really fix this by 80%." "Let AI handle the mechanical, so you can handle the meaningful."
