Wade Kerzie · Speaker & Podcast Guest
One person doing the work of a company with multiple departments. And showing exactly how.
Wade Kerzie spent 30 years leading enterprise sales teams before rebuilding his entire working life around AI. Today he runs an AI consulting practice, a home-repair-by-text service in two states, an AI hiring engine, and a weekly newsletter and YouTube show, alone, from McKinney, Texas. No staff, no agency, no code. He talks about what AI actually does in a real business, with receipts.
Topics
01
The model was never the bottleneck. You are.
Why waiting for the next model release is costing operators the only advantage window they will get, and the five reps that close the gap this week.
02
One person, whole company.
What it actually looks like to run marketing, sales ops, product, and finance through one AI working session a day. Live walkthrough available.
03
My own method died in six weeks.
Wade built a two-AI workflow, taught it, then watched the tools make it obsolete. What that pace does to best practices, training budgets, and anyone selling AI advice.
04
Main Street AI.
Home repair by text with no app and no AI talk to the customer. What adoption looks like when the technology hides completely.
