Strategic AI Consulting for Solopreneurs & Small Business Leaders

Strategic AI implementation isn't about chasing the latest tools, it's about creating sustainable competitive advantage that scales with your business.

Ready to harness AI's potential but not sure where to start or how to prioritize? You're facing the same challenge as thousands of business leaders and solopreneurs worldwide. As a solopreneur, you need an AI strategy that fits your unique operational reality - limited resources, lean teams, and the need for immediate ROI on every business decision.

I transform AI overwhelm into your competitive advantage with expert strategic guidance that aligns AI implementation with your business goals and growth objectives.

Why Strategic AI Planning Matters

"Before I met Michelle Runge, CEO at AI Edge, I had no idea what I was missing in the AI realm. What I thought versus what she taught was insightful and easy to absorb. Taking the tools this expert provided; by rolling this out to my team we have been able to work more efficiently with ease."

Lisa Trujillo, Cargo Manager - Western USA, Singapore Airlines

Most businesses approach AI reactively - adopting tools without strategy, implementing solutions without clear objectives, or pursuing AI initiatives that don't align with core business priorities. This scattered approach wastes resources and delays meaningful results.

Strategic AI consulting ensures every AI investment serves your broader business objectives while positioning you ahead of competitors who are still figuring out their approach.
