Most solo operators are getting AI backwards.
They're trying to replace human connections with robots while manually doing tasks a machine could handle in seconds.
Here's the reality check: AI can't close your deals. It struggles with ambiguity. It doesn't understand the subtle "no" behind a prospect's "maybe later."
But you know what it CAN do? The mind-numbing stuff that's eating 20 hours of your week.
The difference between AI success and expensive failure comes down to two things:
Your knowledge base (what needs doing)
Your database (where stuff lives)
Without these? You're asking AI to paint in the dark.
I just helped a client achieve 500% efficiency gains. No AI involved - just proper documentation. When we add AI to that foundation? That's when the magic happens.
Think about it: Would you hire someone and give them zero training, no templates, and no context? That's what most people do with AI. Then wonder why it spits out garbage.
Want to stop wasting time on AI that doesn't work?
Join my webinar: AI Pathways with Mike Fox
I'll show you:
→ Which tasks AI should actually handle (hint: not your sales calls)
→ How to build the foundations BEFORE touching any AI tool
Let humans do human work. Let machines do machine work. And let yourself switch off sooner.
