Still copy-pasting AI answers into your documents?

From Chatbot to Coworker:
Build an AI That Actually Does Things

A live 90-minute workshop where I'll show you how to go from asking AI questions to giving AI tasks, using the same system I run my business on every day.

Live Workshop — April 1, 2026


Save My Spot — $149 90 minutes. No coding required. Full replay included.

If you've been using ChatGPT to write emails, brainstorm ideas, and draft content, you already know the routine.

Ask a question. Get a wall of text. Copy it. Paste it somewhere else. Reformat it. Fix the parts that sound like a robot wrote them. Repeat.

That's not an AI assistant. That's a text generator with extra steps.

On April 1st (I'm not fooling around), I'm going to show you something different. AI that connects to your actual tools and takes action. Sends emails. Updates your calendar. Reads your files. Does the work, not just describes it.

In 90 minutes. No coding. No command line. No computer science degree.

This is the same system I use every day to run my business. And I'm not a developer. I'm a marketing consultant who got tired of copy-pasting.

10 people signed up for my last workshop in a week. Several of them asked, "What's next?" This is what's next.

"He walked out of the matrix, rebuilt from scratch, and now shows others how to do it while using AI without losing their soul."

I've spent 14 years in digital marketing and small business consulting. I run a one-person operation. No employees. No VA team. Just me and a very long to-do list.

I've been using ChatGPT since 3.5 dropped in December '22. I started using it like everyone else. And it was genuinely useful. But it trained me to be a copy/paste monkey.

You know the pattern.

I'd ask ChatGPT to write an email. It would write a perfectly fine first draft. Then I'd copy it, open Gmail, paste it, edit the tone, fix the formatting, add the links, and hit send. The AI "wrote" the email. I did everything else.

I tried adding more AI tools. Jasper for copy. Notion AI for notes. Otter for transcripts. I spend about $600 a month on AI subscriptions, testing everything so I can pass what actually works on to my clients. And after all that testing? I had five AI tools generating text that I was still manually moving between apps.
I tried prompt engineering. Spent hours crafting the "perfect prompt" to get better output. It worked, sometimes. But now I had a new job: professional prompt babysitter.
I even tried automating with Zapier and Make. Now I was debugging workflows at 11pm on a Tuesday. That's not what I signed up for.

Here's what I realized: every AI tool I was using could talk. None of them could do.

They'd generate text. They'd summarize. They'd brainstorm. But they couldn't open a file, update a spreadsheet, send a message, or connect to anything in my actual workflow. The gap between AI output and work getting done was always me. Copy. Paste. Format. Repeat.

Then Claude released something called Cowork.

Cowork isn't a chatbot. It's an AI that connects to your tools. It reads your files. It takes action on your behalf. It doesn't generate text for you to move around. It does the thing.

I set it up. Connected it to my email, my calendar, my Notion workspace, my Google Drive. I built a memory system so it actually knew who I was, what I was working on, and how I like things done.

And something shifted.

I stopped prompting and started delegating. I'd say "draft the follow-up email to Karen about the project timeline and put it in drafts for review." And it would. Not generate text for me to copy-paste. Actually draft it. In Gmail. With the right context. In my voice. Ready for me to review and send.

People noticed. Clients asked what I was doing differently. Friends in the business world wanted to know how I was getting so much done alone.

So I ran a workshop. Taught 10 people how to build the memory system that makes all of this work. They loved it. And the first question after was: "How do I get from the memory system to what you just showed us?"

That's this workshop.

What you'll learn

This isn't a lecture. This isn't a slideshow with bullet points while I read from a script. I'm going to open Claude, share my screen, and show you exactly what this looks like in action. You're going to watch AI take action on real tasks in real time.

Part 1
The Map

20 minutes

You'll learn the landscape so you know exactly where you are and where you're going.

  • The difference between Chat, Cowork, and Code, and when to use each one
  • Why ChatGPT trained you to use AI wrong (and the one mental shift that fixes it)
  • The decision tree: which mode fits your situation right now
  • How to go from "prompter" to "manager" (you delegate, AI does)
Part 2
The Build

40 minutes

This is the main event. I open Claude Cowork, share my screen, and show you what AI looks like when it actually works.

  • Live Cowork demo: watching AI connect to real tools and take real action
  • Connectors in action: email, calendar, Notion, Google Drive, and more
  • Skills execution: giving AI a task and watching it complete it
  • Dispatch and projects: sending AI to work while you do other things
  • How to set guardrails so AI asks before it does anything you haven't approved
Part 3
The Unlock

30 minutes

Now I show you what happens when you let this run.

  • Scheduled tasks: AI that works on a schedule without you sitting there
  • A peek at Claude Code: what becomes possible when you go deeper (demo only)
  • The AI Memory System: give your AI a brain that remembers everything
  • Live Q&A: your specific questions, answered in real time

Included Bonus
AI Memory System Workshop Replay

This was a standalone workshop I taught last week. 10 people paid $97 for it. You get the full replay included with your ticket.

Why? Because the memory system is what makes Cowork actually useful. Without it, your AI starts fresh every time. You explain your business, your preferences, your projects, all over again.

Cowork without memory is a stranger doing tasks. Cowork with memory is a coworker who knows your business.

The two workshops together are the complete system.

This workshop is for you if you:
  • Use ChatGPT or Claude regularly but feel like you're only scratching the surface
  • Are tired of copy-pasting AI output between apps
  • Keep hearing about "AI agents" but don't know where to start
  • Aren't a developer and don't want a workshop that assumes you are
  • Want AI that does things, not just generates text
  • Run a small business, freelance practice, or coaching business
This is NOT for:
  • Developers looking for a coding bootcamp
  • People who want to "learn about AI" in theory
  • Anyone looking for a free YouTube tutorial (those exist, and they're why you're still stuck)
The price

Most AI workshops fall into two categories.

Free ones that teach you the buttons but not the strategy. You finish them and think, "Cool, now what?" You're in tutorial hell.

Expensive ones built for developers. $500 to $800 for a cohort that assumes you already know what a terminal is. You're lost by minute 20.

There's nothing in the middle. Nothing for the person who says, "I'm not a coder, but I'm not a beginner either. I use AI every day. I just need someone to show me the next level."

That's what this is.

$149

Less than one hour of private coaching. Less than the AI subscriptions you barely use.

The "It Actually Works" Guarantee

Attend the live workshop. Go through the replay. Follow the guidebook.

If you don't walk away understanding how to use AI that takes action, not just generates text, email me and I'll refund every penny. No questions. No forms. No 14-day waiting period.

I've been doing this for 14 years. I'm not worried about refund requests. I'm worried about you staying stuck in copy-paste mode for another six months.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is this workshop?

A live 90-minute session where I show you how Claude's Cowork mode turns AI from a chatbot into a working assistant. You'll watch it happen live, get a complete guidebook, and walk away knowing exactly how to set this up for yourself.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. This workshop is designed for non-coders. If you can use ChatGPT, you can do this. Cowork doesn't require any coding. I'll show you everything step by step.

I already use ChatGPT. How is this different?

ChatGPT generates text. You copy it, paste it, format it, and do the actual work yourself. Cowork connects to your tools and takes action. It sends emails, updates files, reads documents, and completes tasks. That's the shift this workshop teaches.

What if I can't attend live?

You'll get the full replay. But I'd strongly encourage you to be there live. The Q&A is where the real value is. You can ask about your specific situation and get answers in real time.

What's the AI Memory System bonus?

It's a separate workshop I taught last week where 10 people paid $97 to learn how to give AI persistent memory across sessions and devices. You get the full replay free. Cowork is dramatically more useful when your AI actually remembers who you are.

Is this just a sales pitch for more expensive coaching?

No. The workshop delivers a complete system. If you want hands-on help setting it all up afterward, I offer a 1:1 Setup Session for $197 where I do it with you. But the workshop stands on its own.

What if it doesn't work for me?

That's what the guarantee is for. If you attend and don't feel like you got the value, email me for a full refund. Simple as that.

Why April 1st? Is this a joke?

No. But I am going to say "I'm not fooling around" at least once. The date landed on a Wednesday. It works for the schedule. And honestly, by the time you see what Cowork can do, the date will be the last thing on your mind.

AI is moving fast. This isn't about being an early adopter for the sake of it. It's about spending 90 minutes to learn a skill that saves you hours every week.

You already use AI. This workshop shows you how to stop babysitting it.
