GenAI for SMEs

Small businesses compete with limited budgets and small teams. Generative AI changes everything—giving you the capabilities of a 50-person company with a team of 5. This practical course teaches SME owners and managers to implement AI across every business function. Learn to automate content creation for marketing, generate professional graphics and videos, handle customer service with AI chatbots, analyze business data for insights, and automate administrative tasks. You will discover affordable AI tools designed for small budgets, implementation strategies that do not disrupt operations, and ROI measurement frameworks. Explore real case studies: African SMEs that 10x their content output, reduced customer service costs by 60%, and increased sales by automating lead qualification. No technical background required—just a business to grow and willingness to embrace new tools. By the end, you will have implemented multiple AI solutions in your actual business and developed a roadmap for continued AI adoption.
