Richmond, Winning With AI, In Person for One Night
Broad Street at five turns a fifteen minute hop into forty. A quote for somebody in Church Hill has been sitting in your notes since Thursday. Nine weekend messages, none of them opened. Those are the actual conditions, and they are what gets handled on screen during one live evening in Richmond. Pre-register and the Richmond date shows up in your inbox before the ads run.
Coming soon to Richmond, VA. The date and venue are not set yet. Pre-register to be the first alerted when they are.

What is the seminar in Richmond, VA?
Winning With AI is a live, in person evening coming to Richmond, and it is for owners of every kind of small business around the city, with no trade given preference and none excluded. The subject is the written work that stacks up on all of them: answering the questions customers send, following up while somebody is still deciding, turning notes from a job into a quote, proposal, or estimate, writing a stretch of marketing in one sitting, shortening the exchange it takes to lock in a time, and the recurring admin of summaries, checklists, instructions, and standard documents. The evening spends equal time on what to keep away from these tools, which is pricing judgment, the conversation with a customer who is already upset, and anything that carries your reputation in public. Mike Filsaime teaches the room, and 25 years of building companies sits behind him, including Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar. Early bird seats are $49 while they last, and if you attend and decide 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 at the end. Richmond has no date confirmed yet, so pre-registration is what this page is for.
- A single evening in Richmond, in person, with nothing recorded.
- Every kind of small business around Richmond is welcome in the room.
- $49 early bird while seats last, refunded if it is not right for you.
- Everything said in ordinary words, and nothing to install first.
- No program, no subscription, and nothing sold at the end.
- The Richmond date is open. Pre-register and you hear it first.
What does the evening in Richmond actually cover?
A deck never comes up. The steps get built on a live screen in a Richmond room, one at a time, at a pace people can write down.
What goes on the screen is what you already have waiting. A question that arrived at ten on a Friday. A caller from Midlothian who never got a call back. Measurements from a house in the Fan that still have to become a written quote. A month of posts and emails, none of them started. New hire instructions, typed out again from nothing.
The second half is the other half of the job. Pricing is yours. The reply to a bad review is yours. Whatever gets posted or printed for the public is yours too. The tool writes a draft and hands it back.
Is AI worth it for a small business in Richmond, Virginia?
Seats are $49 early bird while they last, and if the evening is wrong for you, say so before you leave and the registration fee is refunded.
Nobody around here is short on work. Time is what runs out. A job in Chesterfield and a job in Henrico can look close together until the Powhite backs up, and then the afternoon is gone.
So the writing waits until the house is quiet. This evening moves that typing off your night and leaves every judgment call exactly where it was. You leave with the steps written down and nothing chasing you.
Why is this AI seminar built for Richmond businesses?
The room never gets sorted by industry. A storefront in Carytown, a crew driving out to Ashland, a two person office in Jackson Ward, all one evening.
A drywall crew working Southside. A restaurant in Scott's Addition. A barber in Northside. A landscaping outfit covering Bon Air and Midlothian. A bookkeeper on Broad Street. A gym in Manchester. A cleaning company running Short Pump and Glen Allen. A dental office near Willow Lawn. A nonprofit in Church Hill. An agent listing in the Fan. A repair shop on Hull Street. Somebody shipping orders out of a basement in Ginter Park. The writing is the same in every one of them.
That decides what makes the evening. Anything that only helps one type of business gets left out.
What do Richmond attendees walk away with?
- Same night replies. A question that comes in Friday evening tends to hire whoever answers first. Written answers prepared in advance go out before that.
- Follow up that does not need reminding. Somebody who never heard back was not a no. The follow up gets set up once in the room and runs from then on.
- Job notes into a quote. What you wrote down at a house in the Fan becomes a quote the customer can read, in your own wording, with no evening spent typing.
- A month of marketing at once. The emails and posts that keep getting pushed get drafted in one block, then cut down until they sound like your business.
- Booking in a single exchange. Setting one appointment should not run to eight messages. That whole exchange gets rebuilt on screen, shorter, in front of the room.
- Documents written one time. Summaries, checklists, standing instructions, the monthly form nobody enjoys. Written once with care and reused from then on.
- The line that does not move. Pricing calls, upset customers, and anything the public will read with your name on it. The evening marks that boundary early and says why.

| When it is over | Nothing to buy and nothing to cancel | No next step offered | A monthly charge to remember |
What is Richmond, VA actually like?
Richmond sits on the fall line of the James, with I-95 splitting it north to south, I-64 running east and west, and the Powhite and the Boulevard carrying most of what is left.
The city works in neighborhoods, which changes how business gets found here. Word travels through a block or a corridor rather than an advertising budget, so the reply that goes out quickly gets talked about. Traffic across the river turns a short trip into a real one twice a day. Anything you can finish in writing from a phone at the curb is worth more here than an extra hour would be.
That is the frame for the night. Nothing on screen asks you to buy past what already sits on your desk.
How Richmond businesses are using AI right now
None of this is a preview of something later. Businesses across the Richmond area already run pieces of it, and most have nobody technical on staff.
A home remodeling crew in Chesterfield stopped writing quotes after dinner, because the numbers get dictated into a phone at the curb and come back typed the way the owner talks. A coffee shop in Scott's Addition that posted whenever somebody thought of it now blocks out one morning a month and drafts everything. A three person real estate office in the Fan wrote its client instructions properly once and quit rebuilding them. A bike shop on Hull Street keeps ready written answers to the questions that come in every week.
The pattern repeats without much variation. Keyboard hours came off the day, and every decision stayed where it was. Pricing, the difficult call, and anything public still belong to the owner.
Who teaches the Richmond seminar?
The Richmond evening is taught by Mike Filsaime, who put in 25 years building companies first, and Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar came out of that stretch.
He works in plain English on purpose. No initials, no assumed background, and no talking about a step he could just perform while the room watches him do it.
In Richmond that means the material on screen is the kind of backlog an owner here has open on a Monday morning, handled live rather than presented finished.
What do people who have seen this say about it?
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.
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.

What do people in Richmond ask about the seminar?
When is the Winning With AI seminar coming to Richmond?
No date is set yet. Pre-registration on this page is how the Richmond date and venue go out first, with the early bird price held while seats last.
Where in Richmond will the evening be held?
The venue is still being decided. It will be somewhere you can reach without crossing the whole city at rush hour, with parking that is not an argument, and pre-registered people get the address first.
Is the Richmond seminar for one industry in particular?
No. Contractors, shops, restaurants, salons, gyms, repair crews, landscapers, cleaners, real estate agents, accountants, law offices, dental and medical offices, nonprofits, online sellers, agencies, and one person operations all belong. Their written work is what overlaps.
How much does a Richmond seat cost?
Early bird seats are $49 while they last. Attend, and if it is not right for you, say so before you leave the room and the registration fee is refunded.
Is any technical background needed for the Richmond evening?
No. Nothing appears in code and nothing gets said in initials. Using email and a phone covers the whole prerequisite.
What gets covered at the Richmond evening?
Answering customer questions, following up before a lead goes cold, notes into quotes and estimates, marketing written in batches, scheduling with fewer messages, and the routine written admin. A direct section covers what to keep away from these tools: pricing, difficult conversations, and anything reputational.
Who teaches the Richmond seminar?
Mike Filsaime does. Groove, Kartra, WebinarJam, and EverWebinar came out of his 25 years of building companies, and in Richmond he types the examples on screen live.
Can I bring an employee to the Richmond evening?
Many owners do and it tends to help. When two of you watch the same steps built, the setup usually gets finished instead of sitting on a list.
Is anything sold after the Richmond seminar?
Nothing is. There is no course, no subscription, and no program waiting at the end. Your notes are the only thing you carry out.
Where does the Richmond evening sit in the wider program?
The Richmond room is one stop on Winning With AI, 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.
