A straight-talking AI briefing for your leadership team.
45 minutes, free. At your place, ours, or on Teams. You leave with a one-page AI action plan for your business.
Owners and directors only. No pitch, no follow-up chasing.
The questions you feel you should already know the answer to.
Most leadership teams are quietly unsure about AI. That's normal. This is the room to ask.
Is it safe to put client data into ChatGPT or Copilot?
Are we already paying for AI we're not using?
Where would AI actually save us time - and where is it hype?
What should we stop staff doing with AI right now?
Copilot, ChatGPT or Claude - does it matter?
What would it cost to do properly?
What you leave with.
A one-page AI action plan, written up and emailed within two working days:
Your top three quick wins ranked by time saved
Which tools you already pay for that can do them
What to tighten up (data, policies, staff use)
A rough cost and timescale if you want help - or the steps to do it yourselves
Where we meet.
At your office - anywhere in the North West, we come to you
At The Bank Building, Padiham - coffee's on us
On Teams - if that's easier
Who it's for.
Owner-managed businesses of 20 to 500 people. Works well for logistics and distribution, professional services, manufacturing, trades and recruitment.
Not a fit for one-person businesses or start-ups.
Hi, I'm Liam.
I've spent 20 years running a digital agency that produces work for large enterprise clients, and I've automated most of my own back office - payroll journals, cashflow forecasting, inbox triage, client reporting - using the same tools I'll put into your business. I wrote the book Stop Thinking Like a Freelancer, and I run Cottonmill from The Bank Building in Padiham.
Based in Padiham. On site anywhere in the North West.
If you want to move faster
Skip straight to a Quick Win Day - one working automation built in your business in a day. £495 + VAT.
Straight answers.
Is it really free?
Yes. 45 minutes and a written one-page plan, no charge and no obligation.
Is this a sales pitch?
No. If there's something worth doing, the plan says so. If you'd rather do it yourselves, it shows you how.
Who should attend?
The owner or MD, and anyone who runs operations or finance. Up to four people is ideal.
What happens after?
Nothing, unless you want it to. Some teams book a Quick Win Day, some a full project, some just use the plan.
