Loose Talk AI is a no-fluff series of short talks that show entrepreneurs how to actually use AI in their business. In just 30 minutes, you’ll see what works, what doesn’t, and walk away with tools you can put into action the same day. No jargon. No overwhelm. Just real results you can use now.
This idea came from a simple frustration, every time I spoke with entrepreneurs about AI, they either felt completely overwhelmed by the hype or had tried tools like ChatGPT and got nothing useful out of them. The events and training available were either too technical, too corporate, or too salesy.
I saw the gap, entrepreneurs needed straight talk, quick wins, and no jargon. That’s why I created Loose Talk AI, short, punchy sessions that cut through the noise and show business owners how to actually use AI today.
Most entrepreneurs feel overwhelmed by AI. There are too many tools, too much jargon, and no clear way to use it in their business. As a result, they either ignore it or waste time with little to show for it.
Globally, hundreds of millions of small and medium business owners (SMBs) are in this situation.
70% of SMBs say they want to explore AI, but less than 15% are actively using it effectively (source: SMB Tech adoption reports 2024).
That gap equals tens of millions of entrepreneurs who could save hours per week and grow revenue if AI was explained simply.
In the UK alone (your home base), there are 5.5 million small businesses, most with no dedicated tech teams, but with real growth ambitions.
Loose Talk AI makes AI simple, practical, and useful. In just 30 minutes, entrepreneurs walk away with real tools, prompts, and strategies they can put to work immediately, no jargon, no fluff, just results.
Loose Talk AI generates revenue through a mix of paid workshops, memberships, partnerships, and affiliate income. Free and low-cost 30-minute talks attract and engage entrepreneurs, while deeper workshops and courses provide step-by-step training. A subscription community offers ongoing access to recordings, prompt libraries, and AI resources. In addition, corporate training sessions and partnerships with business networks extend reach, while affiliate relationships with leading AI tools create a scalable revenue stream. This model combines education, community, and trusted recommendations to deliver value at every level of the entrepreneur’s journey.
We started grassroots, showing up where entrepreneurs already hang out. Business meetups, co-working spaces, LinkedIn groups, even WhatsApp chats. Instead of blasting ads, we had conversations, gave away free 30-minute talks, and let word of mouth do the work. The first handful of sessions filled up just by sharing in the right circles. From there, the energy spread, entrepreneurs brought friends, and the community started to grow naturally.
Don’t overthink it. If you’ve got an idea, run it through AI and let it rip it apart for you. Ask it: what’s good about this, what’s weak, where’s the opportunity, what could sink it? In 5 minutes, you’ll see angles you’d normally need a whole boardroom for.
AI won’t make the decision for you, but it’ll save you months of blind guessing. Learn to ask better questions, and it becomes the sharpest tool in your kit.
