So, is your business really AI ready?

We get it: AI is everywhere.

It’s in your inbox, your newsfeed, your team meetings. You’ve probably tried ChatGPT, or at least read a headline (or ten) about how AI is transforming the world. There’s a lot of excitement… and a fair bit of trepidation.

But beyond all the buzzwords and hype, one question keeps coming up in conversations with our clients:

“Is my business actually ready to do something beneficial with AI or is it all too hard?”

And the honest answer?
Yes – you’re probably just stuck in the middle of information overload.

You might be experimenting already. Maybe you’ve used an AI tool to generate a marketing caption or brainstorm ideas. You might even have team members quietly using ChatGPT behind the scenes to speed things up.

That’s all great. But using AI in isolated tasks isn’t the same as having a business that’s ready for AI.

What we’ve learned from working with business owners over the last 12 months is that AI readiness isn’t about being a tech expert. It’s about being able to answer some key strategic questions:

• Where exactly can AI make a difference in my business?
• What’s worth automating – and what needs a human touch?
• How do I introduce AI without disrupting my team or processes?
• How do I avoid wasting time (and/or money) on the wrong tools?
• Have my competitors already passed me?

Why this matters now…

We’re not here to tell you that AI will replace everything you do. What we’re seeing in the marketplace is that many companies are rapidly getting ahead because they’re willing to explore it.

And just as importantly, we’re seeing others falling behind. Not because they’re incapable, but because they’re hesitating too long.

Spending hours researching but worrying about security, or being confused by the terminology, or feeling like it’s already all too hard.

This isn’t about jumping on a trend. It’s about building resilience, efficiency, and future-readiness into your operations before the pace of change picks up even more.

What we also know is you’re not behind – you’re just unsure where to go next.

We don’t do anything without a plan. In our realm we call it a strategy (a highly technical term…) and we look into every corner of a business to see where we can add value, and add it to the overarching roadmap for success.

Through this process we help business owners make smart, informed decisions; and that includes how and where to bring AI into the mix.

Using feedback from real conversations with our clients and wider network, we’ve developed a short, practical tool to help you get started:
The AI Readiness Assessment

It’s designed specifically for SME business owners and leaders. It takes just 3 minutes to complete, and gives you:

• A personalised AI Readiness Score
• A snapshot of your current strengths and risks
• Clear, practical next steps based on where you are now
• An invitation to our next discovery workshop where you can learn more.

No jargon, no overwhelm. Just clarity.

Take the free assessment here.

What happens after the assessment?

Once you’ve taken the assessment and received your score, you’ll be invited to attend our upcoming free workshop: Is Your Business Really AI Ready?

OR, you can skip the workshop and book a free call with our GM, Tony Jensen.

Whether you attend the webinar, or opt to talk to Tony directly, what you WON’T get is a tech demo. It’s not about complicated platforms or tools you don’t need. What you will get is:

• An understanding of what AI could do for your business
• Information on where other SMEs are seeing real wins
• A simple, strategic plan for what to explore next
• And the ability to ask questions in a no-pressure, real-world environment

Our goal is to give you confidence to make friends with AI, and not live in a state of fear and confusion.

Final thoughts

So, if you’ve been wondering whether AI is relevant to you – it is.

If you’ve been waiting to explore it properly – now’s the time.

And if you want to make a smarter, more informed decision about where to start, take the assessment and let’s talk.

This is about more than tech. It’s about building a business that’s prepared for whatever the future brings and doing it on your terms.
