AI Strategy for Creators Who'd Rather Make Things Than Manage Things
I've done the AI homework for media & entertainment so you don't have to. 30 years of leading M&E organizations through major technology shifts — now focused on helping creators and small studios put AI to work.
Who This Is For
- Solo Creators — Quick wins and fast clarity without a six-month engagement.
- Small Studios (5–20 people) — A clear AI roadmap and guided transition.
- Mid-Size Studios (20–50 people) — Embedded AI leadership that shows up to meetings.
- Indie Agencies — AI implementation designed for creative workflows.
- Growing Creators — Ongoing support and systems that scale.
Eight Ways to Work Together
01. AI Readiness Assessment (1–2 weeks)
A focused diagnostic that audits your current tech stack, identifies workflow gaps, scores your AI maturity, and delivers an actionable roadmap with 2–3 quick wins you can implement right away.
02. Strategic AI Roadmap (4–6 weeks)
A comprehensive strategic plan that prioritizes AI use cases by impact and feasibility, maps a phased adoption timeline, and includes ROI projections grounded in your specific operation.
03. Production OS Implementation (4–8 weeks)
Hands-on deployment of 2–4 Production OS workflows tailored to your operation. Includes configuration, testing, team training, and a clean handoff.
04. AI Workshops & Training (Half-day or full-day)
AI literacy, live tool demos, and hands-on workflow building for creative teams. On-site or virtual.
05. Fractional AI Guru (Ongoing monthly)
Embedded part-time AI leadership. I attend your team meetings, guide tool adoption, troubleshoot implementation, and evolve the AI strategy as you grow.
06. Advisory Retainer (Ongoing monthly)
Ongoing strategic counsel with monthly check-ins, quarterly business reviews, tool and trend evaluation, and priority access via Slack or email.
07. Production OS Workflow License (Annual subscription)
Standalone access to the 16-workflow Production OS suite with three-tier progressive analysis and traffic-light risk scoring.
08. Custom AI Solution Build (6–12 weeks)
A bespoke AI tool or integration built to your specifications for production needs that existing workflows can't address.
