for Owners NYC: Find the Leaks in Your Business

AI for Owners — NYC

Wednesday, October 1, 2026 | 6:00–9:00 PM | Chelsea, Manhattan

What's the one thing in your business that eats the most time and

shouldn't?

Every owner-run business has a process that quietly leaks money. Not from bad work. From a workflow that grew one workaround at a time until nobody remembers why it looks like that.

• Somebody types the same numbers into three screens every Friday.
• A report gets assembled by hand from four places every Monday.
• A follow-up slips because nobody owns the track.
• And several other use cases

This session is about finding those leaks and putting a dollar figure on them.

How it works

We go around the room. You say your name, your business, and the most

boring repetitive thing your team does every week.

Then we take three of those leaks and price them live on the whiteboard. Hours per week, loaded hourly cost, monthly total. Real arithmetic, in front of everyone, using your numbers.

Then we walk through what an actual fix looks like for two of them.

No slides. No software demo. No pitch.

Who this is for

Owners and operators of businesses that run on people, not on a platform. Accounting firms, contractors, agencies, clinics, studios, galleries, distributors, property owners.

Anyone who has watched someone on their team type the same data into three different screens and thought "there has to be a better way."

Bring one real problem. You'll leave with a number attached to it.
