In this episode of the Niche Pursuits podcast, Jared sits down with Corey Ganim to break down AI automation that drives results, starting with a simple ROI filter: effectiveness, efficiency, and customer experience. Corey shares his AOA sequence (Audit, Optimize, Automate) so you stop automating messy 12-step processes and start building repeatable systems with AI. You'll hear the difference between AI agents and reusable skills and "speed to lead" replies. Walk away with three clear takeaways: how to choose the right workflows to automate, how to simplify them before automating, and how to build repeatable AI skills you can reuse across your business.
