Do this before implementing ANY AI in your business!
Welcome to Lone Wolf Unleashed, the show that’s all about helping solopreneurs break free from endless admin and reclaim their afternoons. I’m Mike, your host—and if you’ve ever wondered whether AI could be your shortcut to smarter workflows (without drowning in hype or technical jargon), this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.This week, we’re digging into the nuts and bolts of being truly AI prepared before letting any artificial intelligence loose in your business. Whether you’ve played around with ChatGPT or barely touched automation, you’ll discover why prepping isn’t just about choosing cool tools—it’s about understanding which tasks should stay human (and which should be handed off to machines).You’ll learn the two essential foundations you need before any AI implementation—the knowledge base and the database—and how documenting your processes (yes, even if you’re a one-person show!) can transform not just how fast you work, but the quality of your results. I’ll also share real stories and practical steps so you can start seeing time savings and efficiency boosts—often, even before bringing AI fully onboard.So if you’re craving leaner workflows, smarter automation, and the freedom to finally clock off early without making less money or hiring more staff, keep listening. This episode will give you the no-nonsense roadmap to make AI work for you, not create more work for you.
