Welcome to Small Business Mornings! I'm your host, Pat Miller, the founder of the Small Business Owners Community. Today, we're diving into the latest study suggesting that some small business owners need to act fast to stay ahead of the digital competition. We’ll be talking marketing with Lisa Raebel from Rebel Girl Marketing, sharing three big changes to the Small Business Owners Community, and presenting our Meme of the Week. Happy Monday! Let’s kick off the week with some positivity and motivation.Our lead story highlights the impact of AI on the labor market, with a significant decrease in demand for digital freelancers in writing, coding, and social media post-production. The study indicates a 21% drop since the launch of ChatGPT, and I expect these numbers to rise. To stay competitive, move your business upstream and harness AI to boost productivity and client lists. Also, don’t miss our 4th annual SBOC conference featuring Lisa Raebel, where she’ll discuss making marketing easier. Thanks for joining us on Small Business Mornings.
