I pay for AI tools and still do everything manually
What you want: Fewer repetitive hours every week
The Back Office automations and an integrated stack that connects the tools you already own.
AI CONSULTING FOR FOUNDERS AND SMALL BUSINESS
Most small businesses bought the AI tools.Few wired them into the business.
AI Persona is an AI consulting agency for founders and small businesses that assesses operations and tech stack, identifies high-return AI integrations, and builds them.
AI Persona starts with how you operate, finds where AI actually saves time and money, and builds the systems that get you there. Content, chatbots, email, and automation included. Flat pricing. You own all of it.
Less busywork. More business.
THE GAP
The tools were the easy part.The plan is where most stall.
You signed up for ChatGPT, the CRM, maybe a chatbot. You still copy, post, and follow up by hand. The gap is not another subscription. It is knowing which processes to fix first, how your tools should connect, who owns the output, and what to measure.
That is what we figure out, then build.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
