AI Revolution: Automate Your Business & Thrive

Businesses that are using technology to their advantage are really winning right now. If you’re thinking about starting a small business, you can actually automate a lot of tasks that you might normally hire someone for, like a receptionist. We have clients who run their gyms automatically. This means they can spend more time actually working with their clients and doing workouts with them. They use a chatbot to handle scheduling.

We see spas doing the same thing. Imagine calling a spa late at night when you want to book an appointment, but no one answers. With an AI chatbot, you can pick a date and time, and by the time the spa owner gets in on Monday, they already have 15 appointments booked. So, business owners who use this technology are definitely coming out ahead.

How Big Businesses Are Using AI

It’s interesting how this applies to larger companies too. We were just talking about how many jobs that used to be advertised are now just… gone. They aren’t even posting those jobs anymore. People in their 40s and older are coming to us wanting to learn how to use this technology.

The Future of Work: Repetitive Jobs vs. Creativity

It’s true that the really repetitive jobs are disappearing. But when you use your brain and your own creativity, technology can actually make that creativity grow faster. Human creativity is being boosted and sped up by technology.

Who’s the Coach?

I’m Chris Dessi.

Tech entrepreneur. Author. Talking head.
But before any of that—I’m a builder.

I’ve spent the last 20+ years helping companies grow:
From dot-com chaos to SaaS scale-ups to AI-powered everything.
I’ve sold software across continents. Closed $32M in deals using AI.
Built and exited businesses. Bombed a few too. All of it made me sharper.

Today, I run Torque AI, a marketing automation platform built for the 99%.
Small business owners. Solopreneurs. Operators with too much to do and not enough support.
We give them AI superpowers—without the hype, the jargon, or the BS.

I’m also the founder of AI Summit NYC, where real business owners come to learn how to actually use AI to drive revenue.

When I’m not building, I’m writing books, speaking on national TV, and coaching execs through reinvention—with a baseball bat in one hand and a meditation app in the other.

I believe reinvention is our greatest asset.
I believe AI isn’t the threat—it’s the test.
And I believe if you’re not adapting, you’re eroding.

Let’s build something that matters.
