What does the evening in Fargo actually cover?
The evening is built around a working session, not a lecture. You bring in the actual backlog: the unanswered Friday message, the estimate you keep meaning to write, the list of past customers nobody has contacted, the appointment that took a dozen texts.
A concrete crew from West Fargo, a coffee shop owner on Broadway, an office manager in Moorhead, and somebody running an online store out of a spare bedroom all leave with the same short list of uses. The writing behind their businesses is more alike than different.
Nothing follows you home except what you wrote down. No modules, no subscription, no piece of software that needs a technical person to survive the month.
Is AI worth it for a small business in Fargo, North Dakota?
Most of a Fargo week disappears into writing something: an answer, a price, a post, a set of instructions. That is the pile the evening goes after, because that is the pile these tools can actually move.
The other half of the lesson is where to stop. Pricing decisions, the conversation with an angry customer, anything going out in public under your name. Those stay human, and the evening explains why in plain terms.
You test it on your own material before the night ends. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before leaving the room and the registration fee is refunded.
Why is this AI seminar built for Fargo businesses?
Fargo and Moorhead work as one market split by a river and a state line. Downtown Broadway, the strips along 13th Avenue and 45th Street, West Fargo, Dilworth, and the neighborhoods around NDSU each pull their own customers.
The seasons here do something specific to a small business. Half the calendar is weather-dependent, which makes same-day quoting worth more here than it would be in a place with twelve usable months.
Hiring is the usual answer when the work outgrows the crew, and in a market this size the right person is not always available. This evening is aimed at the stretch in between.
What do Fargo attendees walk away with?
- The overnight question gets an answer. Draft a usable reply to what came in after hours, so nobody sits waiting on you until Monday morning.
- A price in writing the same day. A phone call or a site visit becomes a written quote you look over and send before the day ends.
- A season of marketing in one sitting. Emails, posts, and offers produced in a batch instead of starting from a blank page each week.
- Follow-up that runs on its own. A repeatable way to reach everyone who asked about a price once and then never called back.
- Forms and invoices off your evenings. Notes, checklists, instructions, and standard documents drafted from writing you already did.
- Where these tools do not belong. A straight explanation of the judgment calls and the relationships that stay with you.

How does a live seminar compare with free videos and an online course?
| This live seminar | Free online videos | Self-paced AI course | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How it runs | A live evening in Fargo where questions get asked out loud and answered on the spot. | A screen, alone, and no way to ask why yours came out different. | Lessons on your own schedule, which is why most of them go unfinished. |
| Who it is written for | Any Fargo-area owner or manager, any line of work, any size, no background needed. | Aimed at everybody, which usually means people already fluent with the tools. | General material that rarely reflects a single-location business. |
| First working result | You run the tools against your own backlog while somebody is there to correct you. | Watching is the easy part. Nothing in it helps you actually start. | Weeks of lessons usually come before anything you can put to use. |
| The room | A mix of Fargo and Moorhead owners from unrelated businesses trading notes. | No local context, and nobody down the road to compare with. | A forum, occasionally, seldom with anyone from the valley. |
| Price and commitment | $49 early-bird while available, one evening, with a money-back guarantee. | Nothing up front, though sorting useful from useless costs you hours. | Often billed monthly, finished or not. |
What is Fargo, ND actually like?
The city sits on the Red River at the crossing of I-29 and I-94, with Moorhead directly across the water in Minnesota. Downtown runs along Broadway, and the neighborhoods spread west through Island Park and the university district toward West Fargo and Horace.
The larger trade area reaches far up and down the Red River Valley, so a Fargo business often serves customers hours away who never once walk in the door.
Reputation carries here, and so does answering the phone. In a market where people know each other, being slow to respond gets noticed.
How Fargo businesses are using AI right now
What already gets used locally: answering the overnight message before the shop unlocks, turning a walkthrough into a written price, restarting the conversation with someone who asked a cost in October and went quiet, and pulling a season of posts out of a folder of photos.
The rest of it is paperwork. Summarizing a thread before a meeting. Writing instructions for a new hire who starts Monday. Tidying a customer list that has drifted. Producing the standard documents every business needs on file. Most of it runs on tools already sitting on your computer.
Who teaches the Fargo seminar?
Mike Filsaime teaches the Fargo evening. He spent 25 years building companies before he taught any of this, Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar among them, which is where these methods were tested first.
The teaching is deliberately plain. Vocabulary gets defined as it appears, nobody is assumed to have used an AI tool before, and nothing is included to make the topic sound harder than it is.
In Fargo the examples are built live, in front of the room, with owners interrupting to ask about their own situation. That back-and-forth is the reason to be there instead of watching later.
What do people who have seen this say about it?
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.
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.
When is the seminar coming to Fargo?

What do people in Fargo ask about the seminar?
Who should come to the Winning With AI seminar in Fargo?
Any owner or manager of any business in the Fargo-Moorhead area. Contractors, shops, restaurants, salons, gyms, repair crews, landscapers, cleaners, real estate agents, accountants, law offices, dental and medical offices, nonprofits, online sellers, agencies, and people running a business alone all belong in the same room.
Do I need to know anything about AI before the Fargo evening?
No. Writing an email is the only skill assumed. Nothing is typed in code, nothing gets installed ahead of time, and the vocabulary is explained as it comes up.
What can I actually do once the Fargo seminar is over?
Write customer replies and follow-up, build a quote from your own notes, batch out marketing, cut the scheduling back-and-forth, and clear routine written admin. Every one of those is worked through during the evening.
Is the Fargo seminar aimed at a particular industry?
No. The room is mixed on purpose, and the examples are pulled from many different local businesses instead of one sector.
How much is a seat at the Fargo seminar?
$49 early-bird while available. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded.
When is the seminar coming to Fargo?
A Fargo date is not set yet, which is why pre-registration is open. That list is told the date and the venue first, ahead of any wider announcement.
Will this help a Fargo business with two or three people?
Yes. What gets demonstrated is sized for exactly that, and none of it needs staff, an IT person, or a software budget to work.
What does the Fargo evening tell you not to hand to AI?
Pricing judgment, the difficult customer conversation, and anything that goes out publicly with your name on it. Where the tools stop being helpful gets as much attention as where they help.
How do I get on the Fargo pre-registration list?
The registration button on this page puts you on it. Nothing else is required.
Where does the Fargo evening sit in the wider program?
The Fargo room is one stop on Winning With AI live seminars, the touring live AI seminar Mike Filsaime teaches one evening at a time in cities across the United States. Same teacher, same demonstrations, same money-back guarantee in every city; the examples change to match the businesses in the room.
