The 100x Mindset in which AI Empowers Small Business to Think WAY Bigger
As a marketer, I have mixed feelings about messaging involving ‘multiples’ and ‘exponentials’.
That said, I recognize that hyperbole comes acknowledging the possibility of massive results.
Enter gen-AI.
A 100x moment.
Legit.
The Essence of the 100x Mindset
Thinking exponentially rather than incrementally is both subtle and quantum at the same time.
Yes; I get it!
This AI for all mumbo jumbo is exactly the kind of thing a snake oil salesperson would say!
Seriously though!!!
For small businesses, this moment in time where access to generative AI, at little to no cost, is available to a majority of those who can access the internet, we MUST THINK WAY BIGGER.
Surely we must be looking beyond traditional growth trajectories and considering how AI can fundamentally alter our growth curve.
Yes, AI is a tool for improving your efficiency in a way that you can measure.
AND!!!!
AI is a platform for reimagining what’s possible.
It enables micro businesses (founder-led; 1-5 people) to scale operations, reach new markets, and innovate at speeds that were unimaginable just a decade ago.
AI as a Catalyst for Exponential Human Thinking!!!
AI's ability to analyze vast amounts of data in real-time is the kind of thing we’ll spend at least 5 years processing! While it’s easy to get lost in the micro-thinking of fear of job loss, the calling at hand really is to think WAY bigger. (I repeat because it’s important to present the exponential in a way that is taken seriously. Especially by us as small businesses. Our agility and radar for intuitively identifying trends, predicting customer behavior (based on fast gut and deep experience), and making data-driven decisions swiftly (again!based on fast gut and deep experience) help us KNOW THINGS.
Implementing AI for Exponential Growth
Transitioning to a 100x mindset with AI begins with setting bold, visionary goals that challenge the status quo. Small businesses must assess their current processes and identify areas where AI can have a FRIGHTENINGLY LARGE impact. Whether it’s automating customer service through chatbots to provide 24/7 support, or using machine learning to optimize the current supply chain for your product, the goal is to allow AI to ALLOW YOU to do more. To amplify your capabilities.
Real-World Examples from the Marketing Power Circle
In the Marketing Power Circle, my AI implementation mastermind, we focus on turning fantastical dreams of small business delegation into reality. For example, one member implemented a key shift in how to chat with AI to massively streamline the way in which they were prompting AI. Another member used our focussed sprint method to analyze their product offerings and significantly niche down.
“The riches are in the niches.”
Raise a hand if you’ve heard that sentence and not known quite what to do with it.
Well; I am here to tell you that the AI-powered tools of your choice are here to help you.
