Why this program
Built by people who actually do this work — not consultants borrowing the language of meetings & events.
You can just
talk to it.
You're looking at the resources from Roxanne's rapid-fire AI learning session — made just for the people who run events, supply venues, plan conferences, and answer 9:30pm client texts.
A starting point for using AI that doesn't require 25 steps, 17 tools, or a weekend of homework.

- Takeaway
- One thing. That's it.
You don't need to use AI perfectly to get value from it.
You just need to talk to it.
Most AI talks make people feel more behind, not less. Long workflows. 25 rapid-fire steps. The slide with seventeen tools on it. The 45-minute pitch that ends with you somehow responsible for implementation.
This isn't that. The people who'll feel the biggest lift from AI aren't the ones who took the most courses on it — they're the ones who got comfortable just talking to it.
Two moves. That's the whole thing.
Forget the workflow diagrams. Forget the tool stack. If you can do these two things, you're using AI better than 80% of the people who claim to.
Give it everything you have.
Photos of napkins. Screenshots of that 9:30pm text. The fam itinerary PDF. The destination materials. The client's RFP. Drag it all into the chat. Don't organize it first — that's the AI's job.
Then write this:
"I need to write a debrief / proposal / report and I have notes / a transcript / scattered info. Ask me clarifying questions until you're 95% confident you can complete the task successfully."
Copy this. Save it. Use it for almost anything.
Seven starter prompts. Copy-paste ready.
These are the prompts Roxanne actually uses — for proposals, debriefs, pricing decisions, hard conversations, and the moments she's not sure where to start. Click any of them to copy.

Some of you know her as Roxanne from Meet in Kamloops. What you might not know: Meet in Kamloops is run by her team at Boom Business Solutions — a comms + PR firm.
Having a team is what gave her the space to actually sit with AI, play with it, and break it. This program is what came out of that.
