One live evening in Missouri

The seminar covers AI workflows agricultural exporters, manufacturers, and aerospace suppliers deploy. You'll learn how to coordinate with commodity buyers, manage supply across multiple production sites, and maintain customer relationships across dozens of accounts. Missouri's economy relies on efficient supply chains and customer relationships; AI amplifies both.

Missouri businesses compete on volume, efficiency, and relationships. Agricultural exporters manage commodity pricing, seasonal production, and complex buyer relationships. Manufacturers coordinate production, supply, and customer delivery. Aerospace suppliers navigate government sales cycles and compliance frameworks. All depend on clear communication and coordination.

Mike Filsaime has built companies serving complex supply-chain operations and multi-customer manufacturers. He teaches implementation that survives real-world complexity, scales without rebuilding, and trains teams quickly.

How business actually works in Missouri

Missouri's economy divides between two major metro areas: Kansas City and St. Louis. Kansas City serves as an agricultural and manufacturing hub, with significant distribution and logistics infrastructure. St. Louis anchors aerospace and automotive manufacturing alongside banking. Together they represent 75% of state GDP. Manufacturing specializes in aerospace and transportation equipment, processed foods, fabricated metals, and machinery.

Agriculture dominates certain regions, with soybeans, corn, cattle, and hogs as primary commodities. Agricultural products move through distribution hubs in Kansas City and St. Louis toward national and international markets. The sector operates on thin margins, with volume and efficiency as competitive advantages.

Trade and logistics infrastructure makes Missouri a throughway for goods moving nationally and internationally. Banking and financial services concentrate in both metro areas, supporting business operations and trade finance. Aerospace manufacturing in St. Louis requires precision, compliance, and complex supply chain coordination.

How Missouri businesses use AI right now

Agricultural exporters use AI to track commodity markets, manage buyer relationships across multiple customers, and coordinate logistics and shipment confirmation. A soybean or grain exporter selling to multiple domestic and international buyers uses AI to quote accurately, confirm orders, and maintain buyer relationships at scale.

Manufacturers use AI to coordinate production scheduling across multiple sites, manage supply from dozens of vendors, and communicate delivery status to customers. A meat processor managing livestock supply, processing capacity, and distribution to retailers uses AI to coordinate across all dependencies.

Aerospace suppliers use AI to track RFP timelines and compliance requirements, manage subcontractor communication, and maintain quality documentation. Government contracts demand precision; AI maintains compliance records and communication trails automatically.

Six things Missouri attendees take home

• Manage commodity and buyer relationships at scale. Agricultural exporters juggle market conditions, buyer preferences, and delivery timelines. AI maintains consistent communication with multiple buyers, tracks market opportunities, and coordinates logistics. Your sales team focuses on relationships while the system handles routine coordination.
• Coordinate multi-site production without centralized overhead. Manufacturers operating multiple plants need constant synchronization. AI consolidates updates across locations, flags equipment issues, and maintains delivery visibility. Your operations team focuses on efficiency and quality.
• Reduce freight and logistics costs through optimized coordination. Shipping costs consume significant margin. AI consolidates orders, optimizes routing, and coordinates with carriers. Your logistics team focuses on carrier relationships and exceptions while the system handles scheduling.
• Navigate aerospace supply chain requirements without added staff. Government contracts demand compliance, documentation, and precision. AI logs decisions, maintains compliance trails, and organizes subcontractor communication. You pass audits easily and maintain government relationships.
• Grow customer relationships through proactive outreach. Whether selling commodities, manufactured goods, or aerospace components, customer relationships drive repeat business. AI maintains regular touchpoints, flags opportunities, and addresses concerns automatically. Your sales team focuses on strategy.
• Scale agricultural and manufacturing operations without proportional overhead. Growth creates coordination complexity. AI handles administrative work that grows with volume. You scale production and revenue while maintaining current team size.
