If you are an entrepreneur or work from home regular looking for northside Indianapolis coworking spaces this is the list you need! Let’s be real – working from home has its perks (hello, pajama pants), but it also comes with distractions that are not on your to-do list. Maybe your toddler bursts into “Let It […]
Not long ago, my book club got so far off topic that I couldn’t tell you how our conversation about the actual book ended. Somebody asked how people are finding businesses now, and whether everyone just asks AI who to hire. I went home and started building tools to help. This episode covers four fre

The brands that stood out to me in New York made a lot of small, deliberate choices so every touchpoint felt connected. Here are six brand experiences from my September trip and how you can apply each one to your own small business.

TL;DR “AI will save you so much time” is the most repeated and least examined sentence in small business right now. Saved from what? Turned into what? I’ve written before about how I use AI tools; this is a different question. This is the accounting. Because the honest pitch AI for small business owners isn’t […]

I tried this once before. A few years ago I started a podcast, published a handful of episodes, and then set it down. I had the ideas and the gear and a name I liked. What I didn’t have was the capacity, and every episode cost more than that season of my business had to […]
Getting Started with AI It started coming up between setups. A client would be changing into her third look of the day and ask, half-joking, whether she was supposed to be using AI yet.

You’re trying to budget and the answer everywhere is “inquire for pricing.” So here’s my actual answer, with real numbers behind it! The short answer (The longer one is right below, and it’s the part […]

Let me open with something you might not expect from a photographer: AI image generators are good now. Really good. As of this summer, you can type a few sentences into a free tool and get back a polished, professional-looking headshot of someone who looks a whole lot like you. I’ve tested them. Some results […]

TL;DR Most business owners have a couple of nice written reviews sitting on their website doing absolutely nothing. They’re real, they’re kind, and they blend into the page like wallpaper. Nobody stops to read them, because everyone knows a business only posts the good ones. Here’s my take: a written review is fine, but a […]

TL;DR “… just a few photos.” It’s the most common thing I hear from business owners across Carmel, Fishers, and Westfield, and I get where it comes from. A few photos feels manageable.
