Executive summary
You can sell AI training to small companies fast, because the problem isn't buying the software. It's that people don't know how to use it.
European small and mid-sized companies have a clear problem: hardly any of them use AI yet, but they need training right now, tailored to each job, and a lot of them already have budget for it. Eurostat says only 19.95% of EU companies used AI in 2025, and the policy research flat out says targeted training is the fastest way to close skill gaps.
This is a good agency for a strong generalist founder. You deliver advice, charge a lot, and need almost no capital. The best way in isn't generic AI literacy or compliance courses. It's hands-on workshops and short group programs built around the weekly tasks people actually do in marketing, sales, admin, HR, and operations.
The best way in is selling through SME associations, local business networks, and webinars, then turning those leads into workshops and follow-on group programs. There's a lot of generic and compliance training out there, but the research shows room for a premium provider that cares about results and teaches people how to actually use ChatGPT, Copilot, and no-code tools in their jobs.

Questions, answered
What would my ops team actually be doing after week one?
Using ChatGPT or Copilot on their real work: drafting emails and documents, prepping schedules, summarising and coordinating. All from templates we build around their tasks, not slides about what AI is.
Why pay you when free AI courses exist?
Free and subsidized programs teach generic literacy or compliance. We're paid for adoption: your people using AI on their own roles, with customization and follow-up that a recorded course can't give.
What if my staff are anxious about AI?
That's the normal starting point: 61% of workers fear they lack the knowledge to cope with AI tools. Hands-on practice on familiar tasks is exactly how that fear turns into confidence.
