And I said, ‘Well, Claude did that, but it's fine.’ > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > Scott and Colleen helped us figure out not only our AI systems but also how our organization should work… When you pair a well-functioning org and the power of AI, some pretty incredible things happen. We couldn’t have done it without them. > > Greg Summers Vice President, Healing Care Ministries > THIS IS WILD in the best way. I am so excited to try to figure this out. > > Michaela Masterclass attendee > We actually built an AI policy as we were walking through this, which I have now shared with OSU, and they're using it. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > Now we can focus on 10 properties that we want to flip, not 150. > > Economic development director If Possible client > It's structured and personal. > > Jana Masterclass attendee > It's not just adding capacity and taking away work that you don't want to do, although it definitely does that. It allows us to think in ways that we have never been able to. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > That is the gold in this: a system that doesn't burn out our people. > > Michaela Intensive participant > Thank you for leading the workshop; I left feeling much further ahead than expected. > > Intensive participant > It really helped level us up to get things done in our community that we could never have done before. > > Economic development director If Possible client > Everything else we're doing, you can do in AI and piece together.

Thank you! > > Elisabeth Intensive participant > THIS is what I want to do: design my org brain. > > Dina Intensive participant > That was the most helpful thing I have ever done. > > Operations manager If Possible client > This video is what I sent my CEO, and it helped her really understand what I was trying to explain about how this will help us.

Thanks for your hearts and desire to serve others! > > LeeAnn Intensive participant > It really didn't change her voice. You could still feel that it was someone else. > > If Possible client > I keep thinking, Oh yeah, that's what I need. > > Nonprofit founder Intensive participant > Anything to add some extra legs to myself was really helpful. > > Intensive participant > I still feel just as busy as I did, but I know I'm buying time. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > That work, which would have taken maybe six months at one point, took you a few weeks. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > I didn't believe it. Now I do. > > Intensive participant > It's like you read our minds. > > If Possible client > Many times for a nonprofit like ours, it's October 1st ... and we already lost it. We're too late. ... I think that some of that feels like, wait a minute, this isn't too late. > > Ministry president If Possible client > What this is going to do for us is unbelievable. > > Intensive participant > I truly feel like you guys are from the future, and my brain is having a little trouble figuring out how to catch up, but I'm curious and willing to try my best lol > > Michaela Intensive participant > We just had a board meeting, and it was the fastest board packet we have ever built. It was so stress-free. > > Operations manager If Possible client > It literally did everything. What? I said, ‘Oh my gosh, this is amazing!’ > > Candice Intensive participant > As someone who has tried to do it myself this year, I've learned a ton, but this will supercharge you. It would have saved me hours and hours learning on my own. > > LeeAnn Masterclass attendee > I use AI, so I don't hate it. So easy and I love the info! > > Leslie Masterclass attendee > Just a few uploads, and it's all mine. > > Intensive participant > We'd all realize, no, we can do all of this. > > Intensive participant > Board members can, in two pages, know where everything stands before they even look at the board packet, and they loved it, really loved it. > > Operations manager If Possible client > So many people in the nonprofit space will benefit from the path you've walked already. Thanks for being the guide! > > LeeAnn Masterclass attendee > I have always worked alone and feel that AI could change everything that I do. > > Michael Masterclass attendee > What an awesome Masterclass yesterday! I am so pumped to engage more and hopefully join the cohort. > > Chief advancement officer Masterclass attendee > It's probably $75,000 of consulting work that I did on my own, by having the conversations I was having anyway and putting them into a system that can create documentation and keep refining. > > Economic development director If Possible client > This is a great group! Better than any online session I have been a part of. Looking forward to learning with all of you. > > Charlie Intensive participant > I just kept answering questions and figuring out as much as I could, and I did come up with a plan. > > Intensive participant > When you say campaign, my initial thought goes to an eighteen-month to three-year project. > > Ministry president If Possible client > I'm totally geeked that I have some collateral to go back with. > > Intensive participant > Being able to do these throughout the year seems much, much, much, much more possible with these types of tools. > > Ministry president If Possible client > I had a legal agreement that was two pages long that even I understood. > > Economic development director If Possible client > Yes, artifacts are so great!

It's normally really obvious and painful to me. I've never seen it done as beautifully as you presented. > > Intensive participant > THAT is brilliant. I get SO tired of re-explaining. > > Dina Masterclass attendee > This provides so much more capacity! We've already seen it in several areas of our nonprofit. Now I can work on projects and can dream instead of daily tasks! YES, the passion is back! > > LeeAnn Intensive participant > I can talk to ChatGPT until I'm blue in the face, and it helps me immensely.

That's what we've bought back using AI. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > All that branding is our branding. > > Intensive participant > It feels less pressure. > > Ministry president If Possible client > This took me, I'm kidding you not, five minutes. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > This framework and structure is great for someone working independently. > > Beth Intensive participant > I already downloaded the Planner from the Hub, then had Claude tell me how to maximize it using what it knows about my org. > > Joe Intensive participant > It's just amazing how it can create something this fast and to this level of detail. > > If Possible client > We were able to compile everybody's reports in record time this year. > > Jessica Gribben President and CEO, Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development > We can actually put out more than we were, because it's much faster and easier to do. > > If Possible client > I keep thinking, how did they do this before AI?
