Welcome back to Small Business School! Today I am chatting with Avery Swartz, founder of Camp Tech, best-selling author of ‘See You on the Internet’, and AI expert. Together, we dive into the real impact AI is having on small businesses today and how we can embrace it without feeling overwhelmed. 

Avery is the resident tech contributor on CTV Your Morning and is regularly heard on CBC Radio. In this episode Avery breaks down some of the fears and misconceptions surrounding AI, and shares actionable insights for business owners looking to get started!

Topics Covered:

• The rise of AI in everyday business tasks, especially in marketing and administrative operations.
