Coffee&Convos provides networking and programming to help support your small-business needs. \n\n\n\nAI for the Rest of Us\n\nPractical Tools to Streamline Your Small Business\n\nArtificial intelligence often feels like something reserved for big corporations with big budgets\, but the truth is small businesses can benefit just as much (if not more) from the right tools.\n\n \n\nJoin us for this Coffee&Convos conversation with Drew Griffin\, Co-Founder of LoudAF.ai\, who works directly with small and mid-sized organizations to help them apply AI in practical\, results-driven ways.

Whether you're a business owner\, manager\, or part of the team that keeps things running\, you'll walk away with insights on how AI can help your small business work smarter\, not harder.\n\n\n\nMeet our Speaker:\nDrew Griffin | Co-Founder\, LoudAF.ai\n\nDrew Griffin is a serial entrepreneur\, AI educator\, and local media operator based in Douglassville\, Pennsylvania. After 28 years as a Hyperbaric Wound Care Nurse Specialist\, Drew made a bold pivot into the world of technology and digital entrepreneurship   building software\, media assets\, and educational communities that help marketers\, agencies\, and business owners work smarter and own what they build.\n\n\n\nAs co-founder of LoudAF.ai and Delicious Marketing\, Drew has developed a full-stack ecosystem of AI-powered tools and platforms.
