AI Readiness Training for Small Business Teams

Practical, hands-on training that gets your staff and leadership actually using AI tools, not just aware of them.

Talk to Us

Most small businesses have heard about AI. Few have done anything about it. The gap is not interest. It is time, clarity, and knowing where to start.

AI Readiness Training from Indian Lakes Marketing closes that gap. We come to your team, in person or virtually, and walk them through the tools that matter right now, in the context of how your business actually operates. No jargon. No theory. Just practical skills your staff can use the next day.

What We Cover

Sessions are tailored to your team and your industry, but typically include:

The tools that matter right now

Hands-on walkthroughs of Claude, ChatGPT, Meta Muse, and other leading AI tools. We cover what each one is best for, how to prompt effectively, and where the limits are.

Writing and communication

How to use AI to draft emails, proposals, job postings, social content, and customer-facing copy, without losing your voice.

Workflow and time savings

Where AI fits into your existing day-to-day and how to build habits that stick.

What not to do

Common mistakes, privacy considerations, and how to avoid the shortcuts that create problems down the road.

Questions and hands-on practice

Every session includes time for your team to try tools live, ask real questions, and leave with a plan they can act on.

Before or after a training session, we can assess where your business stands and what to do next.

AI Audit

Who This Is For

AI Readiness Training is designed for small and mid-size businesses in Northeast Indiana whose teams are ready to work smarter but are not sure how to get started. It is a good fit if:

  • You have heard about AI tools but have not made time to figure out which ones apply to your business
  • You have staff using AI on their own with no guidance or consistency
  • You want to move faster, write better content, and spend less time on repetitive tasks
  • You are considering a custom AI tool and want to understand the landscape first
