You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. $200/month quietly cancelled.

This is actually good news for you. It means you don't need to adopt every AI tool your competitors are testing. You need to identify the narrow problems where AI consistently delivers — think repetitive internal tasks, first-draft content, data sorting — and ignore the rest.

One practical move you can make this week: write down three tasks your team does on repeat that feel mindless. That's your AI shortlist. Start there. No vendor demos, no consultants, no big commitments.

Your first AI win doesn't have to be impressive. It just has to work.

What's one thing your team does repeatedly that you've wondered if AI could handle — and what's stopped you from testing it?
