AI for Everyday Business Leaders: Save 20+ Hours a Month, Without Adding to Your Plate.
Presented by Ray Bryant, who spent 25 years building businesses, took a company public, and co-managed a $100M investment firm. And Dani Mota, Head of Growth & Marketing at an AI startup he scaled to a $250 million valuation across four continents.
Together, they’re bringing everything they’ve learned to you in a two-day, hands-on workshop, so you can finally understand what AI really is, and how to use it in your business today to:
Grow your revenue
Serve more clients without extra hours
Run leaner so every dollar goes further
Win back time for family, church, and what matters most
What You’ll Walk Away With
30-Day AI Action Plan — step-by-step instructions with templates and checklists to track your progress and improvement.
2–3 AI Tools Fully Set Up for Your Business — configured live during the workshop, tailored to your specific needs.
An AI Playbook — strategy guides and ready-to-use examples you can apply across admin, sales, marketing, and customer support.
Ongoing Community + Support — exclusive access for workshop attendees, walking alongside you as you put AI to work in your business.
The results?
Businesses that adopt these tools often see measurable improvements in revenue, client experience, and efficiency within the first 10 days.
And here’s why it matters:
Most business owners juggle every role and work 60+ hours a week. AI cuts the busywork, keeps you competitive, and gives back time for your family, church, and community.
