01 / How I think about AI

Start with the job
you did this morning.

Most people try AI on something random, get a so-so answer and give up. I start with the work you already do every week.

See an example

01
Map your week
Look at what your week is made of before picking a tool.
02
Pick one job
Choose a task you repeat every week and try AI on that.
03
Check what comes back
Decide what a good result looks like and who checks it.
04
Make it a habit
Save what worked so you can do it again next time.

02 / Want this in your business?

My firm, Alpine Advisory AI,
does this with teams.

Alpine works with founders and business leaders to get their teams using AI well. Pick the service that fits, or book a free chat and work it out together.

What that could look like

Less admin.
More time winning work.

A new enquiry can mean chasing details, searching past work and preparing a proposal from scratch. AI can help organise the requirements and prepare a first draft, while your team stays in control of the advice, pricing and final response.

An enquiry arrives. AI organises the requirements, flags missing details and uses approved business information to prepare a proposal draft. Your team checks the scope, pricing and response. After approval, the connected workflow updates the customer record and assigns follow-up. — Illustrative example, not a client result.Your team approves. Then follow-up is organised.

03 / About Dan

A practical mind.
A human centre.

I’m an AI educator and the founder of Alpine Advisory AI. I’ve spent over ten years in business operations, most of that time as head of operations in financial services.

I run my business with AI, and a fair bit of home life too. Now I show other people how to do the same with their own work, on Instagram, on LinkedIn, and in talks and podcasts.

Outside work: dad, long-distance runner, Collingwood fanatic, podcast listener and lover of musicals.
