One Newark Evening: Winning With AI, Live
Ferry Street and Broad Street do not run the same kind of business, and neither does the shop off Bloomfield Avenue or the crew working out of a yard near the Turnpike. Ask any of them what takes up their week and you get the same list. Messages. Follow ups. Estimates. Marketing. Scheduling. Forms. That is the entire subject of this evening. Pre-register to get the Newark date first.
Coming soon to Newark, NJ. The date and venue are not set yet. Pre-register to be the first alerted when they are.

What is the seminar in Newark, NJ?
Winning With AI is a live, in person evening coming to Newark, and it is open to owners, managers, and staff from every kind of small business in the city and across northern New Jersey. A restaurant in the Ironbound qualifies. So does a body shop in the South Ward, a landscaping crew covering Belleville and Bloomfield, a two person office on Raymond Boulevard, a nonprofit in the Central Ward, an online seller working out of a Harrison warehouse, and somebody running the whole thing alone. Mike Filsaime uses the night on the written work every one of those businesses carries: replying to customer questions, following up before leads go cold, turning notes into quotes and proposals, writing marketing in batches, shortening the scheduling back and forth, and handling routine documents. Early bird seats are $49 while they last, and if the evening is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded. No code, no jargon, no experience required, and nothing sold at the end. The Newark date is not fixed yet, so pre-registration is open.
- One evening, live, in Newark. No follow up sessions, no homework.
- Any small business in Essex County and the surrounding towns fits, from a Ferry Street storefront to a crew based near Port Street to a solo operator working from home.
- $49 early bird while seats last. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded.
- Plain English throughout. No code on screen, no acronyms, nothing to set up in advance.
- Nothing for sale at the end. No course, no subscription, nobody working the room.
- The Newark date is still being set. Pre-registered names get it and the venue before anyone else.
What does the evening in Newark actually cover?
It is a demonstration night. The work happens on a screen at the front, one step at a time, at a pace where writing it down is realistic.
What gets demonstrated is the writing your business already does. The question somebody sends before they decide who to hire. The follow up from last week that nobody made. Rough notes that have to turn into a quote by tomorrow. Two months of marketing built in one sitting. A scheduling thread nine messages long. The same instructions typed out again for a new hire.
The night also says where to stop. What you charge is a decision, not a chore. The call from an angry customer is yours to make. Anything going out in public under your name gets read by you first. Draft with help, decide on your own.
Is AI worth it for a small business in Newark, New Jersey?
$49 while early bird seats hold. Stay for the whole thing, and if it turns out not to be for you, say so before you leave and the registration fee comes back.
Nobody works harder than the people running businesses in this city. The trouble is when the desk work happens. Inquiries stack up during the day. Quotes get written after close. Posting stops for a month. Booking one appointment takes a whole thread.
This evening breaks that down and hands you a sequence. The parts that need a person stay with the person, and everything else you can set up before you go to bed.
Why is this AI seminar built for Newark businesses?
Look at who actually runs Newark. A bakery on Ferry Street. An electrician working the North Ward. A daycare off Springfield Avenue. A cleaning company covering downtown offices. A two person bookkeeping office on Halsey. A barbershop on Clinton Avenue. A gym in the Ironbound. A dental office near Branch Brook Park. A nonprofit on Broad. An agent showing apartments in Vailsburg. Somebody packing orders in a Harrison warehouse.
None of them sell the same thing. All of them write the same six documents, answer the same kinds of questions, and lose the same follow ups.
That is why nothing shown is aimed at one trade. If a demonstration only works for one type of business, it gets left out of a room like this.
What do Newark attendees walk away with?
- The message that lands after you close. Most people ask two or three places before choosing. Having your standard answers written already decides a lot of those.
- Follow up that does not depend on memory. The lead from ten days ago is quiet, not gone. You watch one follow up built and then left to run on its own.
- Curbside notes turned into a quote. Speak your notes into a phone before you leave the job, then read back a written estimate in your own words and send it the same day.
- Six weeks of marketing in one sitting. One thing you already know about your customers becomes the emails, posts, and offers for the next stretch, and you spend your time approving rather than writing.
- Book the appointment in fewer messages. Nine messages to settle on a time is standard and it should not be. The shorter version gets built in front of you.
- Build the standing document one time. Intake sheets, checklists, new hire instructions, the notice you send every month. Write it once and stop starting over.
- The work that stays yours. Pricing, the hard conversation, anything published under your name. The evening is direct about where a tool does not belong.

What is Newark, NJ actually like?
Newark is a working city where a lot of business is done face to face and in more than one language. Blocks change character in a hundred yards. A shop on Ferry Street and an office two miles up Broad have almost nothing in common except the paperwork.
It is also a city people move through. Trains, the airport, the Turnpike, the Parkway. That means customers who are in a hurry and competitors who are a short ride away, and it means a slow reply costs more here than it would somewhere quieter.
The evening sticks to work you can set up alone in one sitting, because that is what actually fits into a week in a city that moves this fast.
How Newark businesses are using AI right now
This is not a preview of something coming. It is already in use across Essex County, mostly by owners who would never describe it as tech.
A contractor in the North Ward stopped writing quotes after dinner. He talks the walkthrough into his phone at the curb, corrects what comes back, and sends it the same afternoon. A daycare off Springfield Avenue rewrote its enrollment packet once and now sends the same clean version to every family instead of retyping it. A cleaning company downtown answers its most common questions in two languages from a saved set of replies. A tax preparer on Halsey drafts a month of client notices in one sitting each January.
Nobody in those examples hired help or bought a system. Each of them spent an evening working out which few jobs were worth handing off.
Who teaches the Newark seminar?
The Newark evening is taught by Mike Filsaime, who has spent 25 years building companies. Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar are among them.
The reason people follow him is that he does not talk in vocabulary. He opens the tool, does the job on screen, and says out loud which parts matter and which parts you can ignore.
In Newark he works through examples drawn from the writing a local business produces in a normal week, and he leaves time for questions from people in the room about their own operations.
What do people who have seen this say about it?
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.
He'll not only make it simple, he'll make it very profitable.
When I saw what Winning With AI could do, I knew we had to move fast. Work that used to drag out for three months now gets delivered by my team in two or three days.
I'm a tougher critic, but Winning With AI blew me away. One idea showed me how to save thousands of dollars a month.
