In this high-energy episode of Building HVAC Science, Bill Spohn and Eric Kaiser welcome Tersh Blissett—entrepreneur, podcaster, and automation enthusiast—for a deep dive into how AI and automation are transforming service businesses. Tersh, known for running multiple HVAC, plumbing, and electrical companies, shares his journey from podcasting beginnings to becoming a Zapier expert and automation evangelist. He explains how AI voice tools, custom GPTs, and platforms like Notebook LM and PhoneTap are helping streamline operations, improve call conversions, and create more consistent customer experiences. The conversation explores both the promise and the pitfalls of AI, from building SOPs and staff training bots to setting up Slack-integrated employee handbooks. Tersh doesn't shy away from the challenges—like automating broken processes or managing security risks—but encourages listeners not to ignore these powerful tools. He wraps up by offering guidance and community resources for those looking to start their AI journey, reinforcing the message: don't automate for automation's sake—do it to solve real problems. Quotes from today's episode: “If you do something more than three times a week, optimize it, automate it, or delegate it.” “Don't automate just to automate—solve a problem first.” “Authentic human tone is going to win, even if AI is writing it.”   Tersh's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tershblissett/ Trade Automation Pros: https://tradeautomationpros.com/ Tersh's email: tersh@tradeautomationpros.com/ Tersh's Podcast: https://www.servicebusinessmastery.com/ Other links mentioned in today's episode: https://scribehow.com/ Capture computer based learning/processes Skool.com (look for the Automation Foundation) www.plaud.ai/products/plaud-notepin  (always recording pendant) https://notebooklm.google/ Understand anything https://chat.chatbotapp.ai/claude Claude by Anthropic This episode was recorded in June 2025.

Our guest in this episode is Dawid Naude, the visionary founder and CEO of Pathfinder, an AI accelerator dedicated to helping businesses boost employee productivity, drive breakthrough innovation, and cultivate a sustainable AI culture. Dawid's passion lies in leveraging AI to free us from mundane tasks and enhance our uniquely human capabilities.In our chat, Dawid shared how AI can truly liberate us from daily drudgery, making way for more meaningful work and deeper human connection. He also brilliantly explained that AI's real power isn't in simple prompts but in having a genuine conversation with it.Key points discussed include:* AI as a liberator: Dawid emphasizes how AI can free us from low-level tasks, allowing for greater focus on skilled work.* Conversational AI: The true value of AI lies in dynamic dialogue, not just one-off questions and answers.* Human connection amplified: AI enables us to be more human by removing tedious tasks and fostering deeper understanding.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Are robots coming for our jobs? Is technology making us less human? These are the kinds of questions that often swirl around the conversation. But what if we told you that AI isn't here to replace us, but to liberate us? What if it's the key to unlocking a future where we're more productive, more creative, and yes, even more connected?This was the incredibly inspiring message from our recent Innova.buzz guest, Dawid Naude, the founder and CEO of Pathfinder. Dawid isn't just building an AI accelerator; he's on a mission to reshape how businesses and individuals embrace this powerful technology, focusing intently on the human side of AI adoption and creating a sustainable AI culture. His vision is refreshingly optimistic: AI's true power lies in its ability to strip away the "drudgery" of our daily tasks, freeing us up to do the really important, human work.Beyond the Classroom: Revolutionizing Learning and Critical ThinkingThink about it: how much of your day is spent on low-level activities, tasks you mastered years ago, or even back in university? Dawid sees this as a profound opportunity. AI can shoulder that mundane burden, allowing us to flex our highly developed skills. But his excitement truly ignites when he talks about education. Imagine every student having a 24/7 mentor, a personalized teacher available at their own pace, in their own language. For those with learning difficulties or language barriers, this isn't just convenient; it's a game-changer, leveling the playing field and opening up a world of possibilities.Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: won't all this AI make us lazy thinkers? Won't it erode our critical thinking skills? It's a valid concern, one I've wrestled with myself. But Dawid offers a compelling counter-narrative. Perhaps for some, it will make it easier to copy and paste. But what about those in the middle, those who struggle to follow complex work? Could AI actually elevate their understanding, pushing them beyond simple rote learning? And for those who are already critical thinkers, AI becomes an "absolute weapon," allowing them to test concepts, explore new topics, and identify blind spots with unprecedented speed and depth. It's like having an instant sounding board, helping you see all the holes in an argument you might have missed.The Art of Conversation: Prompting Beyond the Basic Q&AOne of Dawid's most profound insights is that the true magic of AI isn't in a single, perfectly crafted prompt. Forget prompt engineering as a rigid, one-shot deal for most of us. Instead, Dawid champions the idea of AI as a conversation partner. It's not about asking a question and getting the answer; it's about engaging in a dialogue, a back-and-forth riffing session where you can tweak, question, and refine the AI's responses. This conversational approach unlocks a much deeper level of value.So, how do we master this art? It's simpler than you think. Dawid suggests treating AI like a friend you want to challenge. Instead of asking, "Is this a good idea?" try, "Can you find 10 things wrong with this?" or "Tell me all the reasons for and against." This subtle shift in your interaction can transform the AI from a validation machine into a genuine sparring partner, pushing your thinking and helping you explore ideas from all angles. It's about being aware of the AI's inherent tendency to validate and actively instructing it to push back, to play devil's advocate.Navigating the Ethical Maze: Bias and the Human ElementThe question of bias in AI is a significant one, and Dawid delves into this with admirable honesty. He explains that AI has to be biased in some way; it has to give an answer that isn't always "it depends." The underlying training data, combined with carefully constructed "system prompts," shapes the AI's personality and guardrails. It's not malice, but a reflection of the data it's trained on and the rules its creators have set.This understanding is crucial. While we can ask AI to cite its sources and dig deeper, the ultimate responsibility for critical evaluation remains ours. We're used to searching for answers on Google, where we get sources to find the answer. With AI, we're often given the answer directly. Dawid wisely points out that this could lead to us delegating our thinking to a "20-kilometer radius in California," where most of these AI companies reside. It's a tricky balance, but one we must navigate by maintaining our own human judgment.AI in Action: Real-World Business TransformationsDawid's journey with Pathfinder has shown him just how rapidly the landscape of AI has evolved. What required complex, expensive integrations just 18 months ago can now often be achieved with off-the-shelf tools and clever prompting. He recounted a fascinating example of a small real estate company that, after some basic AI training, created their own custom GPTs for tasks like real estate listings and tenant communication. They even produced AI video avatars of their CEO providing market updates in multiple languages!This anecdote really drives home Dawid's belief: the true power lies in giving every employee an "everyday AI assistant." It's not about replacing roles, but about making each person incredibly productive by tackling the thousands of unstructured, copy-paste, back-and-forth activities that fill most of our days. When people discover how these tools can save them time and effort, their eyes light up. It's a genuine human connection to the technology because it directly improves their daily work life.The "Coffee Culture" of Connection: Why Humans Still RuleOne of my favorite analogies from our conversation was Dawid's take on coffee culture. He highlighted how, particularly here in Melbourne, we're happy to queue up, pay five times as much, and sometimes even get a "worse" coffee from a barista, even when a perfectly good, cheap, and consistent alternative exists from a machine. Why? Because it's human. This perfectly illustrates his point that despite the incredible efficiency of AI, our innate desire for human interaction and connection remains strong.AI is poised to rid us of the drudgery, giving us back time and mental space. And what will we do with that newfound freedom? Dawid believes it will allow us to be more authentic and human in our interactions. When we're not bogged down by tedious tasks, we can truly engage, empathize, and connect on a deeper level. The more human you are, the more effectively you'll be able to leverage this technology.Your Personal AI Journey: Taking the LeapSo, what's the takeaway from all this? Dawid's message is clear: dive in! The best gateway drug, as he puts it, is something like ChatGPT. Don't be intimidated; it's not hard to become an expert. You just need to be shown what's possible, and then start playing. He encourages everyone to grab the free version and get started.His unique call to action is brilliant: "Have ChatGPT interview you, and then afterwards, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways of how you should use ChatGPT." It's a meta-approach that lets the tool itself guide your learning journey, tailoring its advice to your specific needs and interests. What a clever way to begin your own AI adventure!It's been a truly fabulous conversation with Dawid Naude, packed with incredible insights. His perspective on AI as a human enabler rather than a threat is truly inspiring. We're not just talking about the future; we're living it, and with AI as our ally, that future looks incredibly bright.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Dawid's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Innovative AI with Human connection – Dawid saw a client use AI to understand a challenging client's perspective more deeply, and his wife uses it to create fairy tales that help their kids navigate difficult situations.* Best AI integration example – Dawid integrates AI and human connection by simply showing people how to use it to save time, do things they couldn't before, and even have fun with their families.* Differentiate with Connection – Dawid recommends using AI to understand people and industries more deeply, allowing for richer conversations and more impactful solutions.ActionDefinitely grab ChatGPT, even the free version! Then, tell it to interview you, and afterward, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways you should use ChatGPT to get started.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Dawid on his LinkedIn, or for a deeper dive into AI, visit Startlearning.ai which redirects to Pathfinder's monthly public masterclass.Links:* Website - Pathfindr* LinkedIn* Speaker Profile* YouTube* Dawid's Other Podcast appearancesCool Things About Dawid* The Tech Optimist with a Conscience: Dawid isn't just a tech cheerleader; he's a responsible innovator who's willing to call out unethical practices and advocate for human-centered AI adoption. That blend of enthusiasm and integrity is seriously cool.* The Accidental Entrepreneur: Dawid's candidness about the challenges of entrepreneurship—admitting that it's often "miserable" and not as glamorous as it seems—is refreshingly honest and relatable.

If you're a coach, content creator, or entrepreneur struggling to stand out with your content, you need to hear this. In episode 274 of the School of Impact podcast, discover how Jason uses a custom GPT—trained entirely on his voice, content, and copywriting frameworks—to effortlessly produce high-performing, on-brand content across platforms. Whether you're tired of generic AI outputs or want to scale your messaging without sounding robotic, this episode is packed with actionable insights on building a powerful AI assistant that sounds just like you. Tune in and learn how to turn your voice into a content machine.   “One of the secrets of this is, if you are not a great copywriter, and if you don't have loads of successful content or if you don't have loads of successful transcripts that you have from videos that you've done that have converted, to be honest, you're gonna have a mediocre chatGPT bot. So having a really good copy is key.”   Key Takeaways: Custom GPTs Are Most Effective with a Solid Knowledge Base: To get high-quality, personalized content from AI, you must feed it with a strong knowledge base—your own successful posts, transcripts, and frameworks. Generic inputs lead to generic, ineffective outputs. Voice-to-Text Is a Powerful Instruction Tool: Jason uses voice texting to create detailed, authentic instructions for his custom GPTs, enabling them to replicate his tone, style, and strategic approach to copywriting. Content Creation Should Start with Your Genius Zone: AI should enhance your strengths—not replace them. Whether it's video speaking or writing, start with your natural medium and let AI help repurpose and scale it across platforms. GPTs Are a Leverage Tool, Not a Shortcut: AI should be used to create efficiency, not to avoid effort. When used properly—especially with brain dumps and structured refinement—it can help you generate endless content that still sounds like you.     Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

Episode Overview: In this episode, John Kitchens together with Al Stasek and Jay Kinder tackle one of the most overlooked truths in real estate growth: sustainable momentum doesn't happen by accident — it's engineered. They break down the real levers that drive success — belief, environment, and systems — and show you how to harness them in a shifting real estate market. They unwrap why most agents stall out, how to identify the hidden “boat anchors” dragging you down, and why cutting them is the non-negotiable move if you want real growth. This is a deep dive into execution, mindset shifts, strategic planning, and how to leverage AI to not just survive but scale faster than ever. Whether you're trying to get unstuck or push from six to seven figures, this episode is loaded with real talk, powerful frameworks, and tactical advice that will challenge you to think — and act — bigger. Key Takeaways: Belief drives momentum: Without belief in your vision, everything else collapses. Your level of belief determines your level of action — if belief fades, momentum dies. Environment is a growth hack: Who you surround yourself with either fuels or fractures your belief system. Success leaves clues — proximity matters more than ever. Momentum is math: It's not luck. It's tracking the leading indicators — like quality conversations per day — and understanding what fuels your flywheel. Boat anchors must go: Identify the habits, people, and distractions weighing you down. Understand the true cost of inaction and commit to cutting what no longer serves you. Results > Education: People don't want another course; they want a problem solved. Whether selling homes or recruiting agents, the offer must deliver a clear, desired outcome. Strategic Planning every 90 days: Escape overwhelm and pivot faster by installing a 90-day strategic cycle. If you're stuck, your next breakthrough will come from clarity and prioritization, not hustle. AI is your leverage tool: Learn how Jay and the team use ChatGPT, Grok, and custom GPTs to automate communication, summarize meetings, and enhance follow-up without sacrificing personalization. Master marketing, not just cold calls: Outbound is dying. The best online marketers will outpace the best cold callers. Build inbound systems that attract and convert. Customer-focused, not competitor-obsessed: Stop worrying about the competition. Winning businesses obsess over solving customer problems — and that's where domination happens. Sustainability over short-term wins: Systems, processes, and retention-focused strategies ensure you're building something that lasts beyond today's market conditions.

Cheers!   Transcript   Introduction and Setting the Scene Well, it's been a while since I've recorded a podcast quite like this, but I'm sitting in our lounge. It's late. I've got a glass of Irish whiskey for a change, which is just beautiful. All of my whiskeys have been bought by someone and I love that. I love sitting and thinking of someone, a family member or a friend. 'cause I enjoy, well, the smell and the taste. There's some, I dunno why I like whiskey so much. Um, I just do, there's something, I think it's 'cause my mom and dad liked it. And possibly because of that, I find there's something really magical about the smell and the taste and the color and just, I don't know, something that sat in a barrel for a decade or more just appeals to me, and it has been another busy week. It's Wednesday as I record this, and yet it feels like it's been the end of a week. Um, it's just, it always feels like I'm playing catch up, but I think that's just the nature of the job. When I worked at Accenture all of those years ago, I quite liked the project mentality. Although we were busy, we ramped up and up and up and up until eventually we got to the delivery date. And then of course, once it was delivered, you've got a week or two off all of that pressure built and built and built. It was to an end point. And I don't think, as a photographer, I felt like that since I left that world now it's just a constant churn of to-do lists, retouching shoots, being energized, even things like recording this podcast. You have to be really in the mood to do it, and I'm not always. There have been plenty of times when I've sat down to record something and even a large glass of 15-year-old single molt doesn't do it. However, I am here, it is late. So forgive me if I sort of tumble over some of my words, but I really wanted to get, um, an episode out. I'm Paul and this is the Mastering Portrait Photography

Remember when we used punch cards, microfiche, and spent months developing business plans? That world is gone. Today's business landscape demands speed and innovation—and AI is the game-changer making it possible.John Munsell, CEO of Bazooka and LSU's go-to AI instructor, unpacks how businesses can implement artificial intelligence without creating organizational chaos. Unlike consultants who merely explain why AI matters, John focuses on practical execution that delivers measurable results—helping companies generate $15 million in revenue over just two years through strategic AI adoption.The conversation demolishes common AI misconceptions, revealing that everyday tools costing just $20 monthly can transform business operations. John walks through real examples: generating comprehensive business plans in hours instead of months, creating custom legal documents without expensive attorney fees, deploying AI note-takers that allow for fully present conversations, and building specialized GPTs that become invaluable knowledge repositories for your organization. One student slashed patent costs from $3,500 to just $300 per filing—demonstrating the immediate ROI that intelligent implementation delivers.Perhaps most compelling is John's approach to workforce transformation. Rather than replacing employees, he advocates training existing team members who already understand your culture and processes. "It costs seven times more to replace an employee than to train them," he explains, outlining how his 2-6 week training programs help companies retain talent while dramatically increasing productivity.Don't be the last business to adopt this technology. As John warns, "The company that learns to get everybody thinking AI-first, the fastest, is the one that wins."

The late biologist E.O. Wilson said that “the real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions, and god-like technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” Wilson said that back in 2011, long before any of us were talking about large language models or GPTs. A little more than a decade later, artificial intelligence is already completely transforming our world. Practitioners and experts have compared A.I. to the advent of electricity and fire itself. “God-like” doesn't seem that far off. Even sober experts predict disease cures and radically expanded lifespans, real-time disaster prediction and response, the elimination of language barriers, and other earthly miracles. A.I. is amazing, in the truest sense of that word. It is also leading some to predict nothing less than a crisis in what it means to be human in an age of brilliant machines. Others—including some of the people creating this technology—predict our possible extinction as a species. But you don't have to go quite that far to imagine the way it will transform our relationship toward information and our ability to pursue the truth. For tens of thousands of years, since humans started to stand upright and talk to each other, we've found our way to wisdom through disagreement and debate. But in the age of A.I., our sources of truth are machines that spit out the information we already have, reflecting our biases and our blind spots. What happens to truth when we no longer wrestle with it—and only receive it passively? When disagreeable, complicated human beings are replaced with A.I. chatbots that just tell us what we want to hear? It makes today's concerns about misinformation and disinformation seem quaint. Our ability to detect whether something is real or an A.I.-generated fabrication is approaching zero. And unlike social media—a network of people that we instinctively know can be wrong—A.I. systems have a veneer of omniscience, despite being riddled with the biases of the humans who trained them. Meanwhile, a global arms race is underway, with the U.S. and China competing to decide who gets to control the authoritative information source of the future. So last week Bari traveled to San Francisco to host a debate on whether this remarkable, revolutionary technology will enhance our understanding of the world and bring us closer to the truth . . .or do just the opposite. The resolution: The Truth Will Survive Artificial Intelligence! Aravind Srinivas argued yes—the truth will survive A.I. Aravind is the CEO of one of the most exciting companies in this field, Perplexity, which he co-founded in 2022 after working at OpenAI, Google, and DeepMind.  Aravind was joined by Dr. Fei-Fei Li. Fei-Fei is a professor of computer science at Stanford, the founding co-director of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered A.I., and the CEO and co-founder of World Labs, an A.I. company focusing on spatial intelligence and generative A.I.  Jaron Lanier argued that no, the truth will not survive A.I. Jaron is a computer scientist, best-selling author, and the founder of VPL Research, the first company to sell virtual reality products. Jaron was joined by Nicholas Carr, the author of countless best-selling books on the human consequences of technology, including Pulitzer Prize finalist The Shallows, The Glass Cage, and, most recently, Superbloom.

Srinivas Krishnaswamy, author of "Inbound Marketing in the Age of GPTs," discusses the transformative impact of AI on customer search behaviors and marketing strategies for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). He emphasizes that traditional methods, particularly reliance on Google for information discovery, are evolving. With the rise of generative AI tools like ChatGPT, customers are increasingly turning to these platforms for tailored responses, which necessitates a shift in how MSPs approach their marketing efforts.Krishnaswamy highlights the importance of understanding the changing dynamics of search. While Google continues to dominate, the volume of searches is increasing, and the landscape is becoming more complex. He points out that MSPs must adapt to this new reality by optimizing their online presence not just for Google, but also for AI-driven platforms. This includes implementing schema markup on websites to enhance discoverability and ensuring that content is relevant and valuable to potential customers.The conversation also delves into the significance of community-based marketing. Krishnaswamy advises MSPs to identify where their target customers congregate, whether online or at industry events, and to engage with them authentically. By providing valuable insights and solutions to their problems, MSPs can build credibility and authority in their niche. This approach not only helps in generating leads but also positions MSPs as trusted partners in their customers' decision-making processes.Finally, the discussion touches on the potential pitfalls of over-automation in marketing. While AI tools can streamline content creation, Krishnaswamy warns against relying solely on them without human oversight. Instead, he encourages MSPs to use AI as a tool for brainstorming and generating ideas, while ensuring that the final content reflects their unique voice and expertise. By balancing technology with genuine engagement, MSPs can effectively navigate the evolving marketing landscape.
