In 2022, I wrote my blogs the long way—because that’s all I knew. Fast forward to today. AI is now one of my most trusted business partners. And I don’t just use it here and there—I use it for everything from content and client nurturing to strategic planning. The best part? I’m finally getting things done that I used to avoid entirely because they took too much time or energy. It's a relief to be free from these manual tasks. From “Maybe Someday” to “Done in an Hour” With AI, I've become more efficient and productive. It's a game-changer. Lead magnets (freebies) used to sit on my to-do list for weeks—sometimes months—because they were too time-consuming. I knew they were important, but getting them done felt overwhelming. Now, I can concept, outline, and complete one in a couple of hours. That shift alone has helped me put valuable resources into the hands of prospects who need them—and actually finish them. Let’s also talk about content creation. Blogs and LinkedIn posts? They take half the time they used to. With AI helping me generate ideas, outlines, and sometimes even first drafts, I’m more consistent, strategic, and—let’s be honest—less stressed about what to say each week. Automated Follow-Up? Yes, Please. I’ll be the first to admit it: I was terrible at following up. Not because I didn’t care but because I didn’t have a consistent system. With AI and automation in place, my prospects now receive thoughtful, timely follow-ups—even while I’m sleeping. And when someone fills out a form on my site? They automatically enter into a personalized email sequence that introduces them to what we do at Kent Solutions. Once that sequence wraps up, I can follow up with a qualification call and invite them into our newsletter—without missing a beat. Strategy on Speed Dial Beyond daily execution, AI empowers me to think bigger. I use it to brainstorm, structure, and refine strategic, business, and growth plans. It’s like having a second brain that’s available 24/7, giving me perspective and structure when I need it most. It's a tool that puts me in control and boosts my confidence in decision-making. The Real Win The most significant gain hasn’t just been time—it’s finally doing what I knew would grow my business. AI made those things accessible, repeatable, and scalable. If you’re still doing everything manually, you’re working too hard. Trust me—I’ve been there. How Ready Are You for AI?
