Okay so, you're a business owner in Frisco, Texas, and 'AI' is buzzing in your ear. Maybe you've got a vague idea, maybe you've heard a friend rave, or maybe you're just trying to keep up. Whatever it is, you're here, and that's a good start. I'm not some big agency, it's just me. I don't have a 'team' to impress you with, just a direct approach to solving problems with AI, or telling you if it's not the right fit.
I understand you're looking for something that actually works, not just another fancy presentation. My goal is to make AI understandable and, more importantly, useful for your specific situation. No fluff, just practical advice and execution. I've worked with businesses across the country, and I'm ready to bring that practical know-how to Frisco.
## What I actually do for Frisco clients
Most of my work for Frisco businesses falls into a few buckets. First, there's the 'pilot project'. This is where we take a small, defined problem — like automating a specific report or predicting customer churn on a small scale — and build a working AI solution for it. It's about proving the concept, seeing real results quickly, and deciding if it's worth investing more.
Then there's building custom AI models. This could be anything from a model that helps you sort through customer feedback more efficiently to one that optimizes your inventory levels. Or, I help with automation, connecting different software tools with AI to streamline workflows that are currently eating up too much of your team's time. It's all about making your operations smarter, not just 'AI-powered' for the sake of it.
## How a Frisco engagement usually goes
Here's a rough roadmap of how I typically work with businesses in Frisco:
1. **Week 1-2: Discovery & Scoping.** We'll have a few calls. I'll ask a lot of questions about your business, your processes, and what's keeping you up at night. I'll try to dig into where AI *might* actually help. By the end, I'll propose a specific project, outlining the problem, the proposed AI solution, and what success looks like. No big, vague reports, just a clear plan.
2. **Week 3-6: Data & Initial Build.** If we agree on the project, this is where I get to work. We'll need to figure out what data you have, and how to get it ready. I'll start building the initial version of the AI model or automation. We'll check in frequently, probably weekly, to make sure I'm on the right track and to get your feedback.
3. **Week 7-10: Testing & Refinement.** This phase is all about making sure the AI works as intended in your real-world context. We'll test it, tweak it, and integrate it into your existing systems if necessary. My aim is for it to be useful and not just another piece of software sitting on the shelf. This is where we make sure it's actually doing what we set out to do for your Frisco business.
4. **Week 11+: Deployment & Handover.** Once everything's good to go, I'll help you get it fully deployed and show you or your team how to use it, and how to maintain it. If you need ongoing support, we can talk about that, but my goal is to build something you can own and operate yourself.
## What it costs, roughly
I prefer fixed-fee projects for most engagements. This way, you know what you're paying upfront, and there are no surprises. For a typical pilot project or a well-defined automation, you're usually looking at something in the low to mid-five figures. More complex custom models or integrations will naturally cost more. I'm not the cheapest option out there, but I'm certainly not the most expensive, and I try to be very transparent about what you're getting for your investment.
## Who I'm usually NOT a fit for
It's important to know who I'm probably not the right fit for. If you're looking for someone to just 'do AI' without a clear business problem in mind, I'm probably not your guy. If you need a huge team of data scientists and engineers for a massive, company-wide overhaul, you'd be better off with a much larger firm. I also don't do 'AI strategy' for strategy's sake; I only do strategy that leads directly to a tangible project. I'm focused on delivering practical results for Frisco businesses, not just talking about them.
## Getting in touch
If any of this sounds like what you're looking for, or if you're a Frisco business with a problem you think AI might solve, I'd genuinely like to hear from you. The best way to start is to book a 20-min call.
FAQs — Frisco
How do I know if AI is worth it for my Frisco business?
The best way to figure that out is to start with a specific problem, not 'AI' itself. If you have a repetitive task, a lot of data, or a forecasting challenge, AI might be able to help. Let's chat about your specific situation.
Do you only work with companies in Frisco, Texas?
No, I work with businesses all across the United States. While I'm highlighting Frisco here, my services are available remotely to any company that needs them.
What does the first 2 weeks of working with you look like?
During the first two weeks, we'll focus on discovery. I'll ask questions about your business and your challenges, and we'll refine a specific project idea together. It's about ensuring we're tackling the right problem.
What kind of commitment do I need to make for an AI project?
You'll need to commit some time for initial discussions and providing access to relevant data and people. After that, I'll handle most of the technical heavy lifting, but your feedback and occasional check-ins are crucial.
Can you integrate AI with my existing business software?
Yes, integrating AI with your existing systems is often a key part of my projects. The goal is to make the AI solution useful and accessible within your current workflows, not to add more complexity.
