What is the seminar in Minneapolis, MN?
Winning With AI is one live, in person evening headed to Minneapolis, and it is open to owners, managers, and staff from small businesses of all kinds across the Twin Cities. It is aimed at no industry in particular, because the subject is written work shared by every business: answering customer questions, following up so leads do not go cold, turning notes into quotes, proposals, and estimates, producing marketing in batches, reducing the back and forth over scheduling, and getting through routine written admin like summaries, checklists, instructions, and standard documents. The night is just as clear about what to keep away from these tools, meaning pricing judgment, difficult customer conversations, and anything that touches your reputation. Mike Filsaime teaches it, having spent 25 years building companies including Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar. Early bird seats are $49 while they last, and if you attend and say before leaving the room that it was not right for you, the registration fee is refunded. No coding, no jargon, no experience needed, and no course or subscription waiting at the end. No Minneapolis date is on the calendar yet, so pre-registration is what is available.
- A single Minneapolis evening, in person, with nothing recorded to watch later.
- Small businesses of all kinds across the Twin Cities are welcome, inside the 494 loop or well beyond it.
- $49 early bird while seats last, and the fee comes back if the night missed for you.
- Plain language from beginning to end, with no setup required beforehand.
- Nothing gets sold at the close. No course, no subscription, no upsell.
- The Minneapolis date is not out yet. Pre-register and you learn it early.
What does the evening in Minneapolis actually cover?
There is no deck to sit through. Every step is performed live on a screen in a Minneapolis room, at a pace that lets the back rows keep up.
What gets worked is the writing already on your plate. The question that arrives at nine on a Sunday. The estimate request from last week that went silent. Notes from a site visit that must become a proposal. A month of emails and posts nobody wrote. A scheduling thread six deep. The same instructions typed out fresh again.
The limits get equal time. Pricing is a decision that has to stay with you. The conversation with an angry customer stays with you. Anything public under your name stays with you. These tools draft and nothing more.
Is AI worth it for a small business in Minneapolis, Minnesota?
Early bird seats are $49 while they last. Attend the evening, and if it was not right, say so before you leave the room and the fee is refunded.
Wanting to fix this is common across the Twin Cities. Having a free hour is not. A trip from Northeast out to Eden Prairie and back is most of an afternoon. January takes days off the board without warning. The fair and the short summer book solid, and the paperwork gets pushed to eleven at night.
This evening moves the written load somewhere better and leaves every judgment call with you. Steps on paper, and nothing chasing you afterward.
Why is this AI seminar built for Minneapolis businesses?
Trade is not how the room gets divided. A storefront in the North Loop, a crew running out to Bloomington, an office off Lake Street, one evening for each.
A gutter crew working Longfellow bungalows. A diner on Nicollet. A salon in Uptown. A landscaping and plow company covering Edina and Richfield. A two person bookkeeping office in Northeast. A gym in Lyn Lake. A cleaning company running St. Paul. A dental office in St. Louis Park. A nonprofit in Cedar Riverside. An agent listing homes in Linden Hills. A tire shop on Central Avenue. Somebody boxing online orders in a Columbia Heights garage. The written work reads the same across every one.
That sets the standard for the stage. If a step only pays off for one kind of business, it does not make the evening.
What do Minneapolis attendees walk away with?
- Reply before the customer picks someone else. A question sent Sunday morning gets settled by Sunday night. Prepared answers put yours in front of them first.
- Follow up that survives a busy week. Silence from a lead is not a decision. The sequence gets set once and then it works without you.
- Site notes into a proposal. What you wrote at the property turns into a proposal a customer can read, in your own words, without giving up a night to type it.
- Marketing for the month, drafted together. Everything you meant to send gets written in one pass, then edited until it sounds like your business.
- Close the scheduling thread in one message. Setting a time by text takes five exchanges and still misses. A plain method to do it in one gets shown.
- Documents you reuse, written properly once. Summaries, checklists, instructions, the form you rebuild constantly. Done one time and pulled off the shelf.
- The work that stays yours. Prices, difficult customers, anything public with your name attached. The evening marks the line and says why.

What is Minneapolis, MN actually like?
Minneapolis sits on the Mississippi with St. Paul across the river and the chain of lakes on the south side. Downtown gets around by skyway for half the year. Bloomington, Edina, St. Louis Park, and everything else out to the 494 loop gets around by drive time.
Everyone here works around the same two seasons. A single winter storm can wipe out a whole day and push work indoors for months. The short summer fills up solid and leaves no time at the desk. Crossing from Northeast Minneapolis to the far southwest suburbs twice in a day takes longer than the mileage suggests. Anything you can close out from your phone between stops is worth real money here.
The evening was built around that reality. Nothing on screen needs anything past the phone and computer you already have.
How Minneapolis businesses are using AI right now
None of this is speculation about the future. Businesses around the Twin Cities already run parts of it, most with nobody technical on the payroll.
A four person gutter crew stopped writing estimates after dinner, because the measurements get dictated in the alley and come back written in the owner's own wording, checked once, sent. A shop on Hennepin that posted whenever somebody remembered now writes a month of posts and emails in one sitting. A two person office that rebuilt the same client instructions weekly wrote them properly one time. A repair shop in Roseville answers its most frequent questions with written replies prepared before the next call arrives.
The pattern is the same in each case. Keyboard hours went away and the judgment stayed put. Pricing, hard conversations, and anything public are still the owner's.
Who teaches the Minneapolis seminar?
Mike Filsaime has 25 years of building companies behind him, and that run produced Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar. Small businesses use all four to handle the ordinary work of the day.
The way he teaches is plain English. No acronyms, no vocabulary taken for granted. Rather than explain what a tool does, he opens it and does the work on screen, the wording too, while the room follows along.
For Minneapolis he begins with the sort of pile a Twin Cities owner has waiting on the desk, and works it live instead of describing what it would look like.
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.
