In short
Small businesses get the most from AI on research, planning and first drafts, while people keep customer contact and final decisions. Set a monthly budget, require approval for anything that costs money, and review results weekly.
Where AI saves the most time
- Researching competitors and prices.
- Turning goals into weekly task lists.
- Drafting emails, pages and offers.
- Summarising feedback.
Simple safety rules
- Never let AI send or publish in your name without review.
- Cap what any single paid action can cost.
- Keep a record of what AI did and what it cost.
Start small
Pick one recurring task, give AI a clear instruction and measure the time saved for two weeks before adding more.
