What if an AI agent could give you back 10+ hours a week and save six figures this year? In this solo episode, host Amy Schutte shares how she quietly tested and built AI systems for small businesses—and the exact agent that’s projected to save a client $100,000+ in 12 months. You’ll hear Amy’s two strongest (and slightly spicy) opinions about AI, why it must be handled with care, and how to make your business fertile and sustainable—not burned out.
Amy also reveals a striking response from ChatGPT to the question, “How do humans survive when AI takes over?”Spoiler: the win isn’t man vs. machine—it’s human + machine.
You’ll learn:
- What AI agents can actually do for small businesses (with real examples)
- How to reclaim time by automating admin, content, and customer service
- The Fertile Business lens: systems that nourish your brand (not drain it)
- The #1 mindset shift for pricing and value when using AI in your workflow
- Guardrails and ethics: how to adopt AI without losing your brand’s soul
Mini use cases: a bakery freeing hours from captions & inbox, a realtor closing more deals with instant follow-ups, and a coach turning expertise into a consistent content flywheel.
If you’re ready to stop drowning in busywork and start building a business that’s alive—this episode is your roadmap.
