Hey there, Acquire & Build crew! Think of this as your weekly newsletter that scoops up those random Legos on the floor—so instead of stepping on something painful at 2 a.m., you’re stepping into a business that helps, not hurts, and gives you more time with your family.

This week’s way to avoid pain:

1. AI: Your Firestarter for Building & Acquiring Success 🚀

AI: Your Firestarter for Building & Acquiring Success 🚀

So, my wife and I were chatting over coffee this week, and you know what popped up?

The whole debate about AI.

Apparently, there’s a lot of noise out there about how AI might be making folks lazier or dumber, like students using it to phone in their homework or some workers using it to cut corners.

But here’s the twist:

I think of AI as my firestarter, not my shortcut.

And that’s what I want to share with you all today.

In the world of solo searchers and business buyers like us—the ‘MEs’ of the world who are ready for a change…AI isn’t just a convenience.

It’s a tool that can literally speed up what we’re doing and help us build from the ground up.

For me, that means using AI to sketch out the models for my business plans, to run the numbers on acquisition targets, and even to figure out how many leads I need to hit my five-year growth targets.

Sure, it hallucinates a bit and needs a human touch, but it’s like having a brainstorming partner who never sleeps.

It’s helped me get off the ground faster, whether that’s coding a website, tweaking Facebook ads, or just making the whole due diligence process a little less daunting.

It’s not about cutting corners; it’s about lighting a fire under the process and making things that used to feel out of reach suddenly doable.

So next time you hear someone say AI is making us lazy, just smile and know that for us, it’s another tool in our entrepreneurial toolkit…one that helps us build the life and business we’re after.

Let’s keep building!
