Control is what lets you say yes to AI
Most of your team have already tried AI, and nobody asked you first. That is not a discipline problem, it is proof they want to get on. But you cannot stay in control of something you cannot see, and "I did not know my staff were doing it" has never been much of a defence.
So this is not a session about prompts, and it is not a compliance lecture. Governance sounds like a brake and it is the opposite: once you know what your team uses, what happens to your data and how you would get back out, you can say yes in a week while a nervous competitor spends three months deciding.
It is built for the person who has to make the call. No jargon, no engineers in the room, and you start the work while we are still on the call rather than taking it away as homework.
A dated plan, already started
Not a to-do list to write up afterwards. Before we finish you pick one thing, put a name against it and a date on it. The first tick is what beats inertia; the rest follows on its own.
The traffic light
One rule your whole team can follow without asking you every time: red, amber, green, tool by tool. Plus the two lines that make it hold — you own the output whatever made it, and no client data goes into a tool you have not approved.
A policy you can issue on Monday
A one page template, not a blank page. Short enough that a new starter reads it on their first day, and plain enough that you can hand it over without a solicitor translating it first.
Four questions that out-ask your rivals
Does it train on our data. Where is it stored. Can we get it deleted. Who else sees it. Four questions that stop a salesperson talking round you, and most of your competitors are not asking them.
60 min
One hour of your time, and you start the work inside it.

What you are comparing it to
- An hour of a solicitor's time. I am not a solicitor and none of this is legal advice, but you will leave with a rule your team will actually follow, and I will say plainly when something does need one.
- A personal data breach, which the ICO must hear about within seventy two hours whether or not you have a plan.
- Your biggest client asking today how AI touches their data. Could you show them?
One of the four things I teach is to pick suppliers you can walk away from. It would be a poor look if I were not one of them: no minimum term, everything in your name, and the policy template is yours whether you ever speak to me again.
It is guidance, not legal advice, and I will tell you plainly when something genuinely needs a solicitor. If you would rather I ran it twice so both shifts can attend, say so and I will quote it.
Ask about the course
Tell me what your team has already started doing with AI, and I will tell you whether the course is the right answer for you. Sometimes it is not, and I will say so.
Would rather just talk it through? Book a call instead. About twenty minutes, and it costs nothing.
Pick the right one, and use it with confidence
01
Where AI actually earns its place
AI can help your business, but only the right part of it, pointed at the right problem. Most of what you hear is hype, and a lot of it is people selling their own tool. I help you work out where AI earns its place for you, and I'll happily tell you when the honest answer is "not yet."
02
Chosen, set up, and taught
From there I pick the tool that suits how you run things, set it up so it's safe with your data, and coach you and your team until it feels normal. This isn't theory for me. I've spent 25 years doing this, not talking about it, so the advice comes from having been hands-on.
03
Still here afterwards
And I don't vanish once you're up and running. When a question comes up, I'm on the end of the phone, and I'll explain it in plain English without making you feel small.
Axel is always on the end of the phone if we need him and always explains things in a non-technical way but without patronising.
Who you'd be working with
I'm Axel. I've helped small businesses get technology working for them for over 25 years. I'm the one who's still here when what you need changes.
Be braver now.
Book a call to explore
A relaxed chat to see if I can help. No obligation, and if I'm not the right fit I'll tell you.
