In this episode of Think Inside the Square, I got a chance to sit down with brand strategist and AI expert Phil Pallen to tackle a question I hear from so many small business owners: how do we harness the power of AI without losing our personal touch? As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly prevalent, I know many of us feel caught between wanting to stay competitive and fearing we might compromise our values or authentic customer connections.

Phil, whose expertise has been featured on CNN, Access Hollywood, and Entertainment Tonight, brings such a refreshingly practical approach to this challenge. In his new book "AI for Small Business," he cuts through the tech jargon to provide real, actionable strategies for implementation. Whether you're just starting to explore AI tools or looking to optimize your current tech stack, our conversation offers a roadmap for thoughtful AI integration that enhances rather than replaces the human element of your work.
