Everyone talks about finding your "first AI win" to prove ROI. But Maryland's new business program reveals something most consultants won't tell you. I get it. You've sat through webinars that felt like glorified sales pitches. You're drowning in conflicting advice about ChatGPT, automation tools, and AI platforms you've never heard of. And every week there's another "expert" saying you need to act NOW. Here's what caught my attention about Maryland's Community Business Compass: They're not pushing entrepreneurs toward the newest AI tool. They're connecting them with local resources that already understand their specific business challenges first. That's the part the hype machine skips. Before you choose an AI solution, you need clarity on your actual problem. Not "AI for marketing" or "AI for productivity." The real bottleneck. The process that's costing you time or money right now. Maryland gets it: The infrastructure matters more than the technology. Your next step isn't finding the perfect AI tool. It's identifying one specific workflow in your business that makes you think "there has to be a better way to do this." Write it down. Get concrete about the time it takes and what it costs you. Then the right tool becomes obvious. What's the one business process you keep saying you'll fix "when you have time"? #AIForBusiness #SmallBusinessGrowth #BusinessAutomation #AIImplementation
