Los Angeles Owners, Winning With AI Is Coming

Los Angeles is spread across two hours of freeway, which means most of your business happens in writing before anyone meets in person. This evening is about the writing: the answers, the follow up, the estimate, the marketing, the scheduling, the forms. Pre-register and you will hear the Los Angeles date and location first.

Coming soon to Los Angeles, CA. The date and venue are not set yet. Pre-register to be the first alerted when they are.

What does the evening in Los Angeles actually cover?

One evening in a room in Los Angeles, with the work built on stage while people watch. You write down the steps and use them the next morning.

What gets built is ordinary business writing. The reply to a customer who is asking three places at once. The follow up on day four that nobody would have remembered. A page of notes turned into a quote or an estimate. A batch of marketing written once for the next several weeks. The eight message conversation about what time to meet, cut down to one. The instructions, checklists, and summaries that get retyped constantly.

The evening also covers the parts to keep away from it. What to charge is a judgment call, not a draft. A customer who is upset gets a person. Anything public with your name on it gets read by you before it goes out.

Is AI worth it for a small business in Los Angeles, California?

The seat is $49 early bird while they last. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and your registration fee is refunded.

The thing that quietly costs the most in Los Angeles is the gap between when somebody asks and when you get back to them. You were on the 405. You were on a job in Torrance. The estimate is still in your head at nine at night. The post has been in your drafts since March. Somebody typed the same welcome email again this morning.

This is one evening on closing that gap using tools that already exist and mostly do not cost much. No prediction attached, just the setup, shown in full, with the room able to ask questions while it happens.

Why is this AI seminar built for Los Angeles businesses?

There is no industry filter on the door. If you run a business anywhere in the basin, the material is aimed at you.

A landscaper working Encino. A taco shop in Boyle Heights. A dental office in Culver City. A repair crew that covers Long Beach and San Pedro. A hair salon in Highland Park. A bookkeeper in Van Nuys. A gym in Inglewood. An agency of four in Silver Lake. A real estate agent working the Westside. A nonprofit in South LA. Somebody selling online out of a garage in Glendale. Every one of them writes the same kinds of things every week.

So every example on stage is chosen to work regardless of what you sell. If a step only helps one kind of shop, it does not make the evening.

What do Los Angeles attendees walk away with?

• Be the one who wrote back first. In a market this spread out, the reply that is already sitting there tends to win the conversation. You will see how to prepare fast, accurate answers to the questions that come in over and over.
• Follow up that survives a bad week. A shoot ran long, traffic ate the afternoon, the week got away. Set up once, follow up keeps reaching people through all of it, which is the difference between a quiet lead and a lost one.
• Estimates written from the driveway. Voice notes and scribbles become a clean quote, proposal, or estimate in your wording, before you are back at a desk. This alone is why most trades in the room take notes.
• Marketing written in batches. One good idea drafted out into weeks of emails, posts, and offers, so your Monday is approving and scheduling rather than starting from nothing.
• One message instead of eight about timing. Scheduling back and forth is pure waste in a city where nobody is nearby. You will see a straightforward way to collapse it.
• The routine documents you keep rebuilding. Summaries, checklists, instructions for a new hire, the same standard form. Written once properly, then reused, instead of typed again every time.
• Where the line sits. Pricing judgment, difficult customer conversations, and anything reputational stay with a person. The evening is specific about what not to hand over and why.

Who is the Los Angeles seminar for?

How does a live seminar compare with free videos and an online course?

What is Los Angeles, CA actually like?

Los Angeles is less a city than a hundred towns that share freeway numbers. Business on Ventura Boulevard runs differently than business on Crenshaw, which runs differently again than the harbor side of Long Beach or the corridor out through the San Gabriel Valley.

Distance is the constant. A customer in Pasadena and a customer in Santa Monica may as well be in separate states on a Thursday at five. So the deal usually gets settled in text, email, and voicemail before anybody drives anywhere. The business that writes back clearly and quickly is often the one that is still in the conversation on Friday.

That is the practical reason this evening exists here. Almost everything covered happens before a human being gets in a car.

How Los Angeles businesses are using AI right now

Plenty of small operations around the basin are already doing this in a small, unglamorous way.

A mobile repair crew sends a written estimate from the driveway of the last job. A salon in Los Feliz has answers ready for the six questions every new client asks. An accountant in Woodland Hills turns a client meeting into a clear summary and a list of what is owed. A pet groomer stopped trading five messages a day about appointment times. A furniture seller wrote a season of emails on a slow Tuesday. A two person agency turns rough notes into a proposal the same afternoon rather than the following week.

Nobody in that list hired a developer. Nobody handed over pricing, or the hard phone call, or anything that goes out publicly under their own name.

Who teaches the Los Angeles seminar?

The Los Angeles evening is taught by Mike Filsaime, who has spent 25 years building software companies, among them Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar.

What he does well is translation. A tool shows up wrapped in technical vocabulary, and he hands it back in the language one owner would use talking to another.

Nothing in Los Angeles runs off slides. Mike builds each example in front of the room, live, and the steps go down on paper while people watch.
