That's the gap most business owners fall into. You buy the tool first, then try to figure out what to do with it. That's how you end up with a $200/month subscription your team ignores.

AI works when you work backwards. Start with the one task draining your team's time right now — writing, follow-up emails, social posts, whatever. Then find the simplest tool that handles just that. Not the fanciest. The most specific.

One use case. One tool. Thirty days to prove it works.

That's how you get your first real AI win — without ripping anything apart or betting the farm on an oversold platform.
