Eight weeks

A guided build, not a burnout bootcamp. Enough time to brain dump, plan, build, and land with something real.

Weekly Live Sessions

Half teaching, half doing. You build YOUR system alongside us. No homework you forget about.

Q&A Pods

A separate group session each week to ask questions and learn from peers who are building alongside you.

You don't want someone else to build your AI system. You want to learn how to build it yourself, so you understand it, you control it, and you can keep growing it long after the programme ends.

Real exercises, structured guidance, and a working Business Brain at the end.

This is for you if...

You're a small business owner who wants to be hands-on. You've played with ChatGPT or Claude but you want a system, not just chats. You're willing to put in the work over 8 weeks. You want to understand what you're building, not just have it handed to you. You like learning alongside other small business owners, not in a vacuum.

This is not for you if you want a done-for-you service (check out the Business Brain Build instead), you can't commit to weekly sessions, or you want a passive video course you'll never finish.

You don't need another course. You need a guided build.

You've probably bought a course or three. Maybe you finished one. Maybe you didn't. The problem with most AI courses is they teach you concepts but never get you to actually build anything you'll use.

This is different. Every week you're building YOUR system, on YOUR business, with guidance from someone who's done it. By week 8, you have a working Business Brain. Not notes. Not a certificate. An actual system.

By the end of 8 weeks, you'll have:

This isn't theory. You leave with something working.

A complete brain dump of your business knowledge, structured and ready to use

A clear picture of how your tools connect and where AI fits in

Your own AI workspace set up and loaded with your context

At least one working workflow running real processes in your business

A roadmap for what to build next, so you can keep growing the system

The skills and confidence to add new workflows on your own

The 8-week journey

Each week builds on the last. You're not just learning, you're building.

1
Week 1-2

Brain Dump & Context

Get everything out of your head. Capture your services, processes, clients, tone, and decision rules.

2
Week 3-4

Tools & Architecture

Map every tool you use. Plan how it all connects. Spot the gaps and the easy wins.

3
Week 5-6

System Setup

Build your AI workspace. Load your context. Get the foundation working.

4
Week 7-8

Workflows & Roadmap

Build your first workflow. Plan what comes next. Walk away with a system you can keep growing.

How it actually works

Weekly Live Session (1-2 hours)

We meet once a week. Half teaching, half exercises. You learn the concept, then you do the work right there with guidance. No homework you forget about.

Weekly Q&A Learning Pod (included)

A separate group session each week where everyone can ask questions and learn from each other. If you're stuck, ask. If someone else is stuck, you might learn from their question. Optional but highly recommended.

1-on-1 Guidance (paid add-on)

Want personal time with Jam? Book a 30-minute 1-on-1 session at any point during the cohort to work through your specific challenges. Available as an add-on.

Catch-Up Pass

Life happens. If you miss a week, you can join the same week in the next cohort at no extra cost. Your spot doesn't expire.

Sessions are live only. We don't record. AI moves too fast, and the value is in showing up and doing the work together.

One price. Everything included.

No upsells, no premium tier, no "platinum membership."

Why 8 weeks and not 4?

Because building a real system takes time, and you have a business to run while you do it.

Six weeks felt rushed. Twelve felt like a slog. Eight is the sweet spot. Enough time to brain dump properly, plan thoughtfully, build steadily, and end with something real. It also leaves room to fall behind a week and catch up without panicking.

This isn't a bootcamp where we burn you out. It's a guided build where you steadily turn what's in your head into a system that works alongside you.

Not another course. A guided build.

You're not buying knowledge you can google. You're buying time, structure, accountability, and guidance from someone who builds these systems for a living.

What this is
What it's not
Live, weekly, with real interaction
Recorded videos and a Slack group
Building YOUR system, not a generic example
Generic exercises that don't apply to you
Focused on doing, not just learning
Theory-heavy, action-light
Guided setup that works with your tools
"You need to switch to our platform"

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be technical?

No. If you can use ChatGPT or Claude in a chat window, you can do this. We'll teach you the rest as we go.

What if I fall behind?

Use the catch-up pass and join those weeks in the next cohort. No penalty, no judgment.

What tools will I use?

We'll set you up using accessible tools that don't require you to learn coding. Expect to use a guided AI workspace setup we walk you through, plus a few supporting tools depending on what fits your business.

Will I really have a working system at the end?

Yes. That's the whole point. By week 8, you'll have your context loaded, your tools mapped, your workspace set up, and at least one workflow running.

What if I can't make a live session?

Try not to miss them. Sessions are live only and we don't record. If you do have to miss one, use the catch-up pass and join that week in the next cohort at no extra cost.

Can I bring my team?

Each spot is for one person. If multiple team members want to join, talk to us about a team rate.

What's the difference between this and the Business Brain Build service?

This is the basic build. You learn to build it yourself over 8 weeks, with guidance every step of the way. The Business Brain Build service is the comprehensive, done-with-you version where we handle the consulting, figure out the right tools and setup for your business, and grow your system month by month. This programme is for hands-on builders. The service is for people who want it properly built for them.

When does the next cohort start?

The next one starts May 2026. Get in touch and we'll let you know the exact date.

Build it yourself. Built right.

Eight weeks. Live guidance. A working Business Brain at the end. No more random AI experiments that don't stick.
