Kansas Owners, Meet Winning With AI
Two hundred miles of I-70 separate the Flint Hills from the High Plains, and the paperwork stacks up the same in both. Bring a laptop and the job you keep pushing to next week.
What is the seminar in Kansas?
Winning With AI is a live evening seminar in Kansas, and it is open to owners of every kind of business, no matter the trade or the size of the crew. A Wichita body shop, a taqueria on Douglas Avenue, an Overland Park accounting office, a Lawrence salon, a Salina landscaping crew, a Topeka nonprofit, and somebody running a one-person online store out of Manhattan all sit in the same room and work the same material: answering customer questions, following up so leads do not go cold, turning notes into quotes and estimates, producing marketing in batches, cutting down the scheduling back-and-forth, and getting through routine written admin. Mike Filsaime teaches it in plain English, with no code and no experience assumed. Nothing is sold at the door, no course and no subscription. Early-bird seats are $49 while they last, and if you attend and it is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded.
- I-70 runs the full width of the state, and the drive from the Missouri line to the Colorado border eats a whole day.
- The Johnson County suburbs, Overland Park, Olathe, Lenexa, Leawood, and Prairie Village, hold the densest stretch of customers in Kansas.
- Wichita is the largest city, with Old Town on one side of the Arkansas River and the Delano district on the other.
- A band of tallgrass runs down the eastern third through the Flint Hills, and west of Hutchinson the land flattens and the towns spread far apart.

What happens on the night in Kansas?
Owners walk in with one question, and it is usually some version of what this does for me on a Wednesday afternoon. The evening answers it by running real jobs on screen, in order, with nothing to install. Then you do each one yourself, on your own business, before the lights go off.
Mike Filsaime teaches it. He has spent twenty-five years building companies, Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar among them, and none of it comes out as jargon. Every example gets typed out live while the room watches, which is why people leave holding wording that already worked instead of a page of notes.
How business actually works in Kansas
The northeast corner is where most of the trade in the state sits. Johnson County runs from Overland Park out through Olathe and Gardner, Kansas City holds Strawberry Hill and Argentine on the Kansas side, and a single crew can cover all of it before rush hour.
Wichita anchors the south. Douglas Avenue and Old Town fill up at night, the Delano district sits across the river, and Derby, Andover, and Newton send work back and forth with the city all week.
West of Salina the map opens up. Hays, Garden City, Dodge City, and Liberal sit hours apart, Manhattan and Lawrence rise and fall with the school calendar, and Topeka keeps both a downtown and the NOTO district north of the river. An owner working that territory does their email at a gas pump outside Hays.
How Kansas businesses use AI right now
Customer questions answered without typing the same reply for the ninth time. Hours, price range, whether you will drive out to El Dorado. It comes back sounding like you, and you can see who is still waiting on an answer.
Follow-up that does not depend on remembering. Somebody calls in March, goes quiet, and turns up in September. They stay on the list and the check-in gets drafted before the lead goes cold.
Spoken notes turned into a quote. Talk through the job in a driveway in Andover and get an estimate back on your own form, with your own terms, ready for you to fix and send.
A month of marketing done in one sitting. Posts, a couple of emails, and the copy for a flyer or a sign in the window, all written about the work you actually do.
Less back-and-forth over times. Confirmations, reminders, and reschedules get written for you, and so does the routine paperwork: summaries, checklists, instructions for new help, and the standard documents you retype every week.
The evening is also clear about what to keep away from it. Pricing calls for judgment and stays with you. So does any conversation with a customer who is already angry, and anything with your name on it in public.
What do Kansas attendees take home?
- Hands On Your Own Keyboard. Nothing gets demonstrated and left there. You run each step on your own business while somebody is still in the room to answer the question you are about to ask.
- Ordinary Sentences, Nothing Technical. There is no code and no vocabulary to learn first. You ask for what you want the way you would ask a new hire, and that turns out to be the whole skill.
- A Deliberately Mixed Room. Repair crews, restaurants, salons, gyms, contractors, landscapers, cleaners, shops, real estate agents, accountants, law offices, dental and medical offices, nonprofits, online sellers, agencies, and owners who are the whole payroll.
- The Jobs That Stay Yours. Pricing judgment, hard conversations with customers, and anything reputational do not get handed to software. Where that line falls gets real time in the room.
- $49 Early-Bird And A Way Out. No course, no subscription, and nothing for sale at the back of the room. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before you leave and the registration fee is refunded.
What do people who have seen this say about it?
I'm a tougher critic, but Winning With AI blew me away. One idea showed me how to save thousands of dollars a month.
I had no coding experience. No technical background. Nothing. After seeing how to use AI in plain English, I built software and workflows that completely changed my company.
My project lead was wearing too many hats, and the team felt it. This one event showed us how AI could take that work off people's plates. The impact on our sanity has been massive.
Thank you for your incredible knowledge and insight. It made a powerful impact. I don't take anyone's time lightly, least of all someone with your level of marketing genius.
What do people in Kansas ask about the seminar?
When is Winning With AI coming to Wichita or Overland Park?
Kansas dates are still being set. Wichita and the Johnson County side are first in line, with Topeka, Lawrence, and Salina in the conversation behind them. Pre-register and you hear before the general announcement, and your $49 early-bird price is held.
Is the Kansas evening aimed at one industry?
No. The mix is on purpose, and it usually runs from contractors and repair crews to restaurants, salons, gyms, cleaners, landscapers, real estate agents, accountants, law offices, dental and medical offices, nonprofits, online sellers, agencies, and people running everything solo. Different signs out front, same chores at the end of the day.
Do I need any computer background to follow along in Kansas?
None at all. You type plain sentences, the way you would explain a task to somebody on their first shift. Questions come from the floor all evening and there is nothing to install beforehand.
What does a Kansas seat cost, and what if the evening misses?
Seats are $49 early-bird while they last. Sit through it, and if it was not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded.
What should a Kansas business never hand to AI?
Pricing judgment, difficult customer conversations, and anything that could damage your reputation. A person handles those, and the evening marks that boundary clearly rather than leaving you to guess.
Where do the Kansas dates sit in the wider program?
Every Kansas room is one stop on the Winning With AI program, the touring live AI seminar Mike Filsaime teaches one evening at a time in cities across the United States. The teacher, the demonstrations, and the money-back guarantee are the same in every city; the examples change to match the businesses sitting in the room.
