AI for Small Business: How to Get Your Business Found Online | Dr. Anthony Bowen | Business Inspire

AI for Small Business: How to Get Your Business Found Online | Dr. Anthony Bowen | Business Inspire Artificial intelligence is changing how customers find businesses, how businesses market themselves and how decisions are made. For many small business owners in Guyana, though, AI still feels complicated and expensive. On this episode of Business Inspire, host Iva Wharton speaks with Dr. Anthony Bowen, an AI strategist, business professor at Grand Canyon University and creator of the Knowledge Structuring Model. Dr. Bowen explains the three pillars of being visible to AI: AI must understand you, cite you and trust you. He shares how he took women entrepreneurs from Sonia Noel’s Women in Business Expo from a simple elevator pitch to an AI-ready website. He also covers why so many Guyanese businesses still can’t be found online, how young people can build careers helping small businesses with AI, why governments need to put AI guardrails in place now, and why reskilling, rather than fear, is the way forward.
