How does work actually move through the business?
We start with the customer journey, not a list of AI tools.
Five pilot spots
Find the problem before you choose the AI.
A free, one-hour conversation for small-business owners who want to understand where AI, automation, better software, or a simpler process might actually make a difference.
Apply for a pilot sessionThe point
Understand how the business works. Find where things get stuck. Decide what deserves attention.
AI may be part of the answer. It may not be. I’m interested in finding out before anybody buys another tool.
A smart conversation, not an audit
Show me how this thing actually works.
We’ll talk through how customers find you, how work gets done, what your team repeats, where things get delayed, and what still depends on you. I’ll ask questions, chase the interesting threads, and stay skeptical of shiny answers.
Why this is under CoreStak: CoreStak’s website work already starts with understanding how customers find a business, what they need, and where follow-up gets lost. This pilot applies that same problem-first approach to the rest of the business.
Where is time, attention, or follow-up getting lost?
We look for friction, handoffs, repetition, and owner bottlenecks.
What deserves attention first?
You leave with a short, honest brief. Some ideas may involve AI. Some may not.
What you get
A short brief you can actually use.
After the conversation, I’ll review the intake, notes, and transcript and send you a concise AI Opportunity Brief.
✓What I learned about your business
✓The few opportunities that stood out
✓Three to five specific quick wins
✓Anything worth investigating further
✓What I wouldn’t mess with yet
✓If this were my business...

Tell me enough to start a useful conversation.
This isn’t a commitment to hire CoreStak. Applications are reviewed personally, not first come, first served. I’ll email you either way after I review yours. If the pilot looks like a useful fit, we’ll schedule the session and confirm when you can expect the brief before we meet.
