The AI Business Lab

In this session we'll walk through how to find, test and hire a top 1% remote assistant who already knows how to use AI, and how Claude writes the job post, the test task and the training docs for you.

Most owners hire their first assistant in a rush, pick the wrong person and end up doing the work twice. A clear role, a short paid test and written training change the outcome.

What we'll cover:
• Which tasks to hand off first, and the one role that covers them
• Where the best AI-savvy assistants are, and what they really cost
• The paid test task that shows you the top 1% in a single day
• Job post, interview questions and scorecard, written with Claude
• The first-week training plan that makes them independent fast

Format: Live on Zoom with the whole Bridges Network. A one-to-many presentation with microphones off; questions go in the chat and we answer as many as we can at the end.

Bring: a notebook and a list of the tasks you'd hand to an assistant tomorrow.

Who it's for: business owners, founders and managers in every Bridges city. No technical background needed.

Hosted by: Aida from the Bridges Network.

Please note: an optional offer is shared at the end for anyone who wants help going further. Everything above is covered before it.

Where: Zoom. The link appears here once you RSVP "Going." About 60 minutes including Q&A, no cost.

In this session we'll find where a typical owner's week actually goes and hand the repetitive parts to ChatGPT, live, so the time savings start the same day.

Email, quotes, follow-ups and notes quietly take a full working day each week. Most of it can be drafted by AI and checked by you in minutes.

What we'll cover:
• A ten-minute audit of where the hours go
• Email replies and follow-ups drafted in seconds
• Quotes, proposals and summaries from one template
• A short daily routine that keeps the hours you won back

Format: Live and hands-on on Google Meet. We build it together on screen, and questions are answered as we go. This session is shared by the Bridges groups in Boston, Philadelphia and the DC area, so you'll meet owners from nearby cities.

Bring: a laptop, a ChatGPT account, and a rough idea of where your hours went last week.

Who it's for: business owners, founders and managers across Boston, Philadelphia and the DC area. No technical background needed.

In this session we'll put together a complete weekly system where Claude drafts, an assistant sends and the owner decides, so the week no longer runs through one person.

We will walk through a real owner's week before and after, including the 15-minute weekly review that keeps it running.

What we'll cover:
• What Claude does, what an assistant does, and what only you do
• Planning, inbox and follow-ups working as one routine
• A real week walked through before and after
• The 15-minute weekly review

Bring: a laptop, a free Claude account, and a rough list of where your hours went last week.

Who it's for: business owners and managers around Boston. No technical background needed.

In this session we'll show what changes when your assistant already knows AI: the same hours, far more done. We'll cover how to spot these assistants, what to give them first, and the tools they should use from day one.

An assistant who uses Claude and ChatGPT well drafts the emails, research, posts and reports that used to take a full day. Most hiring processes never test for it, so owners can't tell these assistants apart.

What we'll cover:
• What an AI-powered assistant can take off your plate in week one
• Five interview questions that reveal real AI skills
• The starter kit: Claude, ChatGPT and the prompts they should have
• Checking AI-assisted work without micromanaging
• Live example: one real task handed over and done with AI on screen
