Toadally Easy AI

Said like “totally.” Spelled with a toad.

AI training for experienced professionals who’d rather not.

Your firm already pays for AI. I help the experienced people on your team, the ones who are busy, skeptical, or quietly worried about getting it wrong, start using it on their real work. Patiently, in plain English, inside the rules your firm already set.

In person around Wayzata, Lake Minnetonka, and the Twin Cities. Zoom anywhere.

Toad, the teacher A green toad on a lily pad, with a bubble that says You’re not behind. You’re not behind.

The pattern

You bought the licenses. Most of the team hasn’t touched them.

  • Newer hires dabble. Your most experienced people, the ones with the best judgment, mostly don’t.
  • A one-time “AI 101” feels like a slideshow. By Monday, everyone is back to the old way.
  • People worry about pasting the wrong thing, trusting a wrong answer, or looking foolish.

That isn’t a technology problem. It’s a confidence problem. And confidence can be taught.

The PACE method

Four steps. One real task at a time.

Then we keep going for 30 days, so it becomes a habit instead of a handout.

  1. P

    Pick

    Something annoying from the actual week. Not a demo.

  2. A

    Ask

    Who it is for, what you need, what good looks like, and what shape you want.

  3. C

    Check

    You are the expert. AI drafts. You decide. You will know what never to paste.

  4. E

    Edit and save

    Fix it in the same chat. Keep the prompt that worked so next time is not from scratch.

How learning works

Confidence before complexity.

Safety is never skipped. Nobody is put on the spot. We look at confidence before and after, using your team’s own answers.

1

Try one prompt

Free, on your own, with sample data. Start with the First Five.

2

See it once

A free 45-minute session. You watch PACE on one task and leave with a prompt that worked. The webinar.

3

Comfort Check

Twenty minutes with the person who decides. Approved tools, who is stuck, and one task to try.

4

Half-day workshop

3.5 to 4 hours, up to 12 people. The team practices the First Five on sample data. The workshop.

5

PACE 30

Four weeks: Comfort, Your Work, Team Workflows, Make It Stick. The month.

6

A simple tool

Only after the habit exists. One repeating task, inside a tool the firm already approved. Simple tools.

See how the path fits together

Who it is for

Small firms where trust is the product.

Advisory

Meeting recaps, review prep, and plain-English client letters.

Accounting

“Documents we need” checklists and engagement-letter explainers.

Insurance

Renewal explainers, service emails, and coverage comparisons in plain language.

Mortgage and similar teams

Listing drafts, status updates, and follow-ups. The writing that repeats every week.

Safety

Your rules. Sample data. A Don’t Paste list.

Your compliance and IT teams decide which tools and data are allowed. I teach only on your firm’s approved tools, use sample data in every exercise, and give every person a one-page Don’t Paste guide.

I don’t provide legal, compliance, tax, or investment advice.
