How To Actually Start Using AI In Your Business

from The Virtual CEO · host Linked VA

Everyone's talking about AI, but when I ask most business owners what they actually want it to do, it falls apart pretty fast. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly how I've implemented AI inside my own offshoring agency, Linked VA, what's working, what isn't, and where I think this is all heading.I'll walk you through the 3-stage framework I use myself, from building a GPT library, to setting up AI automations, to knowing when (and whether) to build a custom AI portal.Whether you're a solopreneur or running a team, I'm cutting through the hype and giving you a clear, honest starting point.----------Want a VA who actually makes your business run better (not just “help a bit”)?Apply here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linkedva.com/enquire/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Save 10 hours a week and download the FREE inbox SOP for your EA: Grab it here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://go.linkedva.com/inbox-sop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you’re new here, I’m Amy Wallin.CEO of Linked VA.We help business owners scale with high-performing offshore support (EA, Ops, Marketing, Recruitment, Bookkeeping)...without turning payroll into a crime scene.A little about me…A few years ago:I was the admin departmentI was the marketing departmentI was the entire operations team and I still thought hiring help would “slow me down” 😅Now:we build offshore support layers for growth-stage companieswe recruit, screen, train and performance-manage talentso founders can stop drowning in $10 tasks while trying to build a Million Dollar businessIf you want more output, better margins, and less founder dependency… you don’t need another productivity hack.You need leverage.Apply for a VA: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linkedva.com/enquire/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE inbox SOP for your EA: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://go.linkedva.com/inbox-sop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.
