Okewa, CEO Okewa Haircare
"The Next Advantage was a mind-shift. My takeaway was you can do business differently, and make good money. As a business owner, it made me see how I can automate my business processes and systems. It's a cheat code for business owners who are not techies and want to know the right tech tools to integrate into their businesses. It was a good use of my time. Highly recommend!"
Philip, Cybersecurity Analyst
"One of the key takeaways for me was learning how leveraging AI tools can make my work faster and more efficient. The session demonstrated how AI can simplify complex tasks, improve productivity, and even help in better time management by automating repetitive processes. This insight has already started transforming the way I approach my daily tasks."
Lydia, Media Consultant
"Even though it was virtual, the event was highly engaging and interactive. I loved how the session encouraged active participation, allowing attendees to share their thoughts and ask questions in real-time. The speakers were relatable, and engaging, and gave practical advice tailored to real-world challenges.
Obinna, Tech Founder
"Lisa, you made a very powerful statement: 'If it can be automated, it will be automated soon.' That changed everything for me because most white-collar jobs today will be heavily impacted by AI. I appreciate the way you gave relatable examples, utilizing AI tools you referenced, and even prompted when you opened up the feedback session live.
It doesn't get more practical than that.
Kudos! You've gained a subscriber and an advocate."
