AI Stack Checklist for Small Business
Use this before buying another AI tool. The goal is to pick one business bottleneck, choose the leanest stack, and define how ROI will be measured.
1
Pick one bottleneck
Lead generation, follow-up, content, admin, support, or knowledge. Do not start with software.
2
Define the workflow
Write the exact task, owner, input, output, and current weekly time spent.
3
Choose the leanest tool stack
Start with 1–3 tools. Avoid overlapping subscriptions until usage proves the need.
4
Set a 30-day metric
Track time saved, response speed, conversion rate, support volume, or content output.
5
Review before expanding
If the stack does not save time or make money in 30 days, simplify or cut it.
