Dr. Shon (00:00):
Now we're gonna switch to AI for business and
entrepreneurs.
So to my business andentrepreneurs out there, are you
using AI?
Business owners.
The AI tools are endless.
The first tool that's a greatAI tool for business and

(00:21):
entrepreneurs is Canva AI.
Canva has magic design andmagic right.
You can make flyers,thumbnails, and even social
posts in minutes with Canva.
Now I use Canva without the AI,but it does have the AI tool
that can come in handy if youwant a specific image for

(00:42):
business owners out there.
Number two, it's gonna becopyai slash jasper.
If you spend time writing adcopy or doing your marketing
trying to think, this is gonnawrite ad copy that converts
emails that get clicks or blogposts that you can do in half

(01:02):
the time from copyai slashjasper.
This is very, very beneficialto a business owner or
entrepreneur by having this, youknow, on your team as a part of
your AI team for marketing.
Because you know, marketingpeople they come at you all the
time, and they probably actuallyusing this for your ads.

(01:26):
Copy AI and Jasper.
If you're small, you're tryingto scale in the future, you're
starting small, definitely checkthis out for your business and
see if you can get emails thatare more engaging, more
interactive, and just clean allaround.
Just clean things up in thebusiness mindset.

(01:47):
Now, number three is a toolthat I really, really love.
I mean, it saves me so muchtime with my podcast, with
taking video and turning it intoaudio for the podcast.
You can also do so much morethan that, but the script edits
podcasts by edit typing.
You can delete by just um, youcan delete parts of the video by

(02:11):
removing the word.
So if you can type, you canedit the video on the script.
It's a small learning curve,but I really think you guys
should check that out.
If you want to get it intopodcasting, like for instance, I
could turn this video right nowinto just a voice video in
seconds with DScript.
It's going to take my wordsand, you know, translate them.

(02:36):
I can delete the umms and allthe unnecessary words out in
minutes because it can deletethose extra words with the click
of a button.
Definitely check out DScript.
I love DScript.
Our next tool for business andentrepreneurship is going to be
Otter AI.

(02:57):
Now, this is a tool that canrecord your meetings and streams
and get transcripts instantly.
Otter AI.
If you're a student, this canalso be super beneficial for
note taking.
Now, I can imagine being astudent nowadays because they
probably just super, super likelaid back and have no idea what

(03:19):
a student is back in the day.
You got AI recording yournotes, you got AI making
flashcards.
I mean, it's time-saving, like,it's amazing.
So don't let AI be a tool thatyou're afraid of.
Use it to your advantage inpersonal and in business.
In your journey withentrepreneurship, even if you
are a creator in any socialmedia, use it.

(03:41):
See how we can help you growand scale faster.
Because the word for hoodhoodis scaling.
We're trying to scale up.
We're not trying to play itsmall.
If they can do it, I can do it.
If we if he can do it, I can doit.
The next one is Zapier slashmake.
So these automate when someonebooks an appointment, it can

(04:03):
send them a custom email orupload a reminder to your
calendar.
This is great for the servicebusiness out there, any type of
business, you know,photographer, any kind of
business, your chef, it doesn'treally matter.
Zapier is gonna make thoseautomations for you.
So you don't have to say, okay,someone just subscribed.

(04:24):
Let me go and send them this.
And many of the email lists dothis automatically as well.
Definitely check out Zapier.
Zapier has a bigger learningcurve than most of these because
I've checked into Zapier.
Today is just reallyintroducing you to some of the

(04:46):
tools and just giving you theopportunity to download just one
that you find interesting.
If you don't use any, just one.
And if you do use AI already,it's just helping you maybe find
a new tool today to use foryour business and personal
growth.
Last one, I absolutely love,especially for when I was

(05:08):
writing my book, to help mygrammar or if I'm even with my
notes.
This is part of dental too,because I use Grammarly a little
bit too to help me create andsound professional without
overthinking it too much.
Because it corrects yourgrammar.
It's amazing.
You can put it on your phonewhen you're typing.
And some people say, oh, it'sjust gonna make me dumb.

(05:29):
No, it's gonna help you thinkof other words than what you're
using every day.
It's gonna help you thinkoutside of the box and you know,
grow in every area.
So you can sound professionalwithout overthinking it.
Create a clip.
If you can't afford a marketingteam, AI is your team, guys.
Your excuses are expensive.

(05:50):
I mean, your excuses areexpensive, but AI is cheap, AI
is cheap.
Use it grammarly.
When I was in the process ofcreating this manuscript, which
is not out yet, and it is 30chapters, and I was in the
process of taking my writing offa paper, putting it into the

(06:12):
computer, and then when I got itinto the computer, I had to
edit it all, and it's still notcompletely edited, but I had to
use Grammarly to help me, youknow, kind of edit this book.
Sometimes it could take awayyour natural tone, but you just
have to watch it and read it.
You know, so if you're tryingto edit something, grammarly is
the way to go.
Long as you write it, it'sstill authentic.

(06:35):
It's just the editor.
Those are AI tools that you canuse for business and
entrepreneurship.
