AI implementation is a major challenge for many founders, with 80-90% of attempts failing due to ineffective use of tools. In this workshop, Trevor Longino, Founder of CrowdTamers, will teach you how to use AI as a powerful partner to enhance your creativity and execution, not as a replacement for your thinking.

This workshop is for you!
