Business Administration & Accounting: AI as a teaching partner | Saint Michael's College

You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. $200/month gone, and now you're more skeptical than ever.

That's not a you problem. That's a deployment problem.

Here's what a pair of business school professors figured out — and it applies directly to your situation.

They didn't hand their students AI and say "figure it out." They introduced it as a thinking partner for specific tasks. Not a replacement. Not a revolution. Just a useful tool applied to one defined problem at a time.

That's the frame most business owners never get.

You don't need an AI strategy. You need an AI starting point — one repeatable task in your business that eats time and produces predictable output. Invoice categorization. First-draft proposals. Meeting summaries. Pick one.

Run AI on that single task for 30 days. Measure the time saved. That's your ROI conversation. That's how you build confidence without betting the whole business on a guru's recommendation.

One task. Thirty days. Real numbers.

No ripping out existing systems. No learning to code. No six-figure commitment.

What's one task in your business you'd love to hand off — if you actually trusted the tool to get it right?
