What is the best AI workshop for business owners in Sydney?
The best AI workshop for a Sydney business owner is one where Claude AI gets set up on your own business, on your own laptop, so you drive home with Claude helping with your content and one real job already automated. Ai With Soul runs that as a one-day, in-person workshop for owners of established service businesses, led by Kelly Wotherspoon, a Claude specialist.
What should a Sydney business owner look for in an AI workshop?
Look for a day built around your own business, your own laptop and a small room.
Ask four questions before you book:
- Will I work on my own business, or on a made-up example?
- Is the set-up done before I arrive, so the day goes on my real work?
- How many people are in the room, and who helps me when I get stuck?
- Who owns what gets built, and what will I keep paying for afterwards?
Why do so many business owners get stuck after trying AI?
Many owners who come to us have already had a go. They opened Claude or ChatGPT, got stuck, and closed it.
Getting stuck is rarely the person's fault. People learn on a made-up example, then nothing carries over to their real business. The fix is doing the work on your own business, with someone in the room who knows what good looks like.
Do I need to be technical?
No. Everything is installed on your laptop before the day, from a step-by-step video. Anything that goes wrong at home gets sorted before you walk in.
On the day you work the way you would message a team member: in plain words, on your laptop, or by voice note from your phone.
What happens at the Ai With Soul one-day workshop?
You spend one day, 9am to 4pm, in a room of ten businesses, setting Claude up on your own business with Kelly in the room to help.
In the morning you connect your tools and build your Business Brain, a written guide to how your business works that Claude reads before it does anything. After lunch you set up your content editing and automate one real job from start to finish. Lunch, morning and afternoon tea are included.
Claude drafts and you decide. Nothing goes out without you saying yes.
What happens after the day?
You get 30 days of support in our online group, with live builds with Kelly on Zoom every Tuesday at 7pm Queensland time (8pm in Sydney during daylight saving) during those 30 days. That's where you bring the job that isn't working yet and get that job sorted.
Is my business information safe?
Everything is set up in your own accounts, on your own laptop. Kelly shows you how and doesn't touch your sensitive data, and you decide what Claude can see.
You'll need your own paid Claude plan. Everything you build is yours to keep, with no subscription to us.
What did people say after a recent workshop?
These two came to a recent one-day workshop on the Sunshine Coast.
Caroline runs Blackley Group, a school-culture consultancy, and came to set Claude up on her own business. At the end of the day she said: "Four dashboards that suddenly at my fingertip have so much information and very well organised."
Jim and Scott run Maleny Jewellers and came to set Claude up on their own business. On the day they built a quoting system for their staff. At the end of the day Jim said: "We've built a quoting system for our jewellery so our staff can use it and it's really, well, we're working on it still but it's still really easy and hands-on and our minds have exploded with the possibilities now so we're looking forward to doing more with it."
