What can you do yourself with AI, and where do you still pay a pro?
You keep hearing AI will run your business. Nobody tells you which part. Or what it costs. Or where it breaks.
Each episode I sit with someone who knows. An analyst. An SEO pro. An owner who built it. One question. Plain answers.
Real businesses. Real tools. The part that worked, and the part that went wrong. Every answer has to pass one test. Would a salon owner know what to do on Monday?
Michael spent about ten years at IDC. Then he was Chief Research Officer at G2. Today he runs Arion Research.
I asked him where a small business should put its first AI money. His first answer: spend nothing for two weeks.
pilots fail people first, data second, technology's, uh, almost the third.
Nouman has done SEO for 13 years. He runs the agency Being Optimizers.
We asked how a business gets named when people ask AI. Then we checked every answer against Google's own pages.
If you are not adding anything from yourself, from your experience, then that content will not work.

Guests talk from memory. That is normal. So we look up every number they give. When a guest quotes a report, we open the report. Then we show its own page on screen. You see the source, not just the claim.
Who fits: you run or advise a business, and you use AI for real. Or you sell a service and know where AI stops.
What it costs you: nothing. We do the production.
How long: 60 to 75 minutes, one sitting, online.
What you get: the full episode, plus short clips ready for LinkedIn.
You agree the topics before we record. Anything off the table, we skip. No pitching on air, from either side. Want to see the edit before it goes out? Just ask. You will see it first.
