How the half day runs

Three parts, built around your work.

It starts with a free Diagnostic with you, so the examples come from your business. It ends with a one-page map you can act on.

Before · 30 min

A Diagnostic with you

So the examples come from your business, not a template.

Part 1 · 45 min

Show

What AI can and can't do right now, live on the kind of work your team does.

Part 2 · 90 min

Hands-on

Everyone works through two or three of their own real tasks with AI.

Part 3 · 45 min

Map

Together, sort your workflows into “AI fits here,” “not yet” and “worth automating.”

After · within 2 days

Your one-page map

Walked through with you on a 15-minute readout call that's part of the workshop.

What you leave with

A one-page map, not a slide deck.

Your workflows, sorted into three piles. For the top one worth automating, the map shows two paths with real numbers. Prices and options, not a pitch.

Your business · one-page mapExample · page 1 of 1

AI fits here

  • OfficeWrite the follow-up after an estimate
  • OwnerSummarize a contract before you sign it
  • Crew leadTurn voice notes into a daily job report

Not yet

  • OwnerSet the final price on a bid
  • SafetySign off on an inspection
  • HiringDecide who gets the job

Worth automating

  • BillingTurn field tickets into invoices
  • OfficeCheck onboarding packets before day one
  • DispatchChase missing paperwork
Path A Your team does it

The steps, the tools you already pay for, and roughly how long it takes to set up.

Path B Varholdt builds it

What a build costs, how long it takes, and what support looks like after.

How the piles get sorted

Every workflow gets a score.

Your team scores its own work on how often it happens, how predictable it is, and how many hours it eats. The scores make the sort honest.

Example · workflow scores score = volume × repeatability × hours
  • Field tickets → invoicesWorth automating 6.5
  • Onboarding packet checksWorth automating 5.6
  • Estimate follow-up emailsAI fits here 2.3
  • Contract summariesAI fits here 1.4
  • Final bid pricingNot yet 0.6
Field tickets → invoices goes on your one-page map with two paths: your team does it, or Varholdt builds it.
Who it's for

A good fit, and not.

Good fit

A team ready to use it

The workshop was made for this.

  • Your team8 to 25 people who live in email, spreadsheets and paperwork
  • Where they areSome have tried AI; nobody has shown them how it fits their actual job
  • What you wantA straight answer, even when it's “not yet”
Not a fit

Something else entirely

Better served somewhere else.

  • A keynote for a big roomThat's speaking
  • Replacing your peopleThis is about making them faster at their work
  • A tool demoYou'll work on your own tasks, not watch slides
Workshop questions

Before you ask.

Anything else, put it in the form below. I read every message myself.

What does it cost?

One flat price for the half day, quoted on the Diagnostic call. It doesn't change with headcount.

Which AI tools do you use?

Tools your team can keep using after I leave, starting with what you already pay for. If you have nothing yet, I'll tell you which one to start with and why.

Is this a pitch for a build?

No. The map shows two paths for your top workflow, and in one of them your own team does it. Either is a good outcome.

Can you do it remotely?

It works best in the room, so it happens at your office. If your team is spread out, tell me and we'll work out what fits.

What do we need to have ready?

Laptops, a room with a screen, and two or three real tasks per person. Nothing else to prepare.

Ask about a workshop

Tell me about your team.

The first step is a free 30-minute Diagnostic with you, so the workshop is built from your business, not a template.

A few sentences is plenty.

What are you looking for? Optional

Goes straight to me. I reply within two business days, and I never add you to a mailing list.
